Best venue for our perfect day

If you are looking for the best venue for your wedding in northern Indy, the Ritz is it!!!

Thank you from the bottom of my heart to the entire Ritz staff that helped make our day so amazing. Everyone says to expect things to go wrong on your day, and truly not a single thing did. Our day was absolutely perfect.

The entire team was incredible to work with from the start. I have zero complaints and only praises for the entire process from the tour through the reception. Emily was great during the planning process and was so easy to work with and so responsive. She made the entire planning process of the reception flawless.

Major kudos and thanks to the team who helped with set up and the day of. Vincent, head of operations was fantastic in helping us get the dance floor enlarged (which we were so glad we did because it was full all night!). Our day of team was incredible. Erika was fantastic and helped the evening run smoothly even when we moved up events because we were ahead of schedule. Even down to the coat check lady, Barb. She was so great.

The food was a HIT! People are still talking about how amazing the food was. Highly recommend to couples not knowing what to include to do the selections we did because every single item was a hit. I am dreaming about the duck empanada app, beef short rip and the potato thyme crisp My only regret is not eating more!

You will not regret having your reception here! I hope to attend many more events here in the future!

Dream Wedding Achieved

We couldn’t have chosen a better venue than the Bluffs at Conner Prairie for our wedding! From start to finish, the entire team was accommodating and organized. The staff was amazing—professional, friendly, and genuinely dedicated to making our day unforgettable.

The food? Absolutely fabulous! Our guests are still raving about how delicious everything was, and the presentation was stunning.

The Ritz Charles provided the perfect foundation for our wedding from ceremony to our private last dance. If you’re looking for a venue that delivers elegance, exceptional service, and peace of mind, look no further. They truly gave us the best wedding we could have ever imagined.

August 2023 wedding

Ritz Charles was very responsive and gave more information than any other company I spoke with during the planning process. They were very friendly, the food was amazing, and easy to work with. There were some fairly major issues that happened, including losing and melting the wedding cake so we did not have a wedding cake. We received a refund on the cake which was mostly a fair compensation, but I was pretty disheartened that we didn’t get to have a cake at our wedding. The quote we received initially was also increased when we went to pay later on. They added more utensils, linens, silverware, etc as back ups in case anything broke or got lost/dropped etc. This was on the initial quote but the numbers were increased even though the guest count stayed the same, I thought this was a little shady and lacked transparency. While it was our responsibility to review the final quote, there is a lot going on leading up to the wedding where this was not noticed.
