Where do I begin?! Sarah is just truly amazing as a person and photographer, there aren't enough words to say how grateful we are for Sarah and Micky. For our engagement shoot, we hit multiple spots that were special to us and then to St, Joseph, Michigan for a romantic beach sunset. It was relaxing, beautiful, and most of all FUN!

The team had great ideas too when it came to catering and small details that ultimately improved our guest experience. The venue itself is gorgeous and our guests had a blast.

A nice touch was being able to have dinner in the orchard, a last minute decision we made that was recommended by the team and ultimately helped the day flow better.

The Armory

South Bend, IN
  • Venue
  • Up to 500 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor
  • Starts at $2,500

From its historical beginnings as a stoic munitions depot, The Armory experienced a beautiful transformation to showcase a sophisticated ballroom, classy built-in bar and impressive commercial kitchen. Original element of the 1928 Armory construction and subsequent Newman Recreations Center were incorporated into the even space renovation to provide the perfect blend of past and present.Iron-barred doors used to secure armers and thick concrete walls reinforced with brick to accommodate the National Guard Armory and shooting range lend a rustic industrial aesthetic. Wood from the recreation center bleachers line the dramatic bar and the orginial hardwood floor was dressed up to grace the ballroom. The vaulted timber ceilings and exposed truss work allow the dazzling period chandeliers an opportunity to lend an air of elegance to the urban decor. Charm abounds in the union of classic architecture with a modern flair.

Awarded Best of Zola
The Armory was absolutely the perfect venue for our August wedding. We got so many compliments from our guests about how beautiful the venue was! Megan served as our coordinator and she was amazingly organized, detail-oriented, and quick to respond to any questions we had throughout the process.

Anna Hagen, Harpist

  • Solo performer
  • Starts at $400
  • Serves Elkhart, IN

When, I was eight, I announced to my parents, “I want to play the harp.” Their wisely cautious response was to give me a year of piano lessons! But once I got my fingers on strings, there was no looking back. Now I own six harps and play professionally for weddings, churches, senior care as well as arranging and recording. By mixing my years of classical training with my love of different genres I get to help people make memorable events with beautiful music. Meet me and the harps at my website.

I worked with Anna at a recent wedding and was quite impressed with how beautifully she played! I was the DJ for the wedding, and Anna and I had to coordinate music-playing times throughout the evening. Anna was flexible and easy-going and always very professional. Her music added a certain classiness and elegance to both the wedding ceremony and the cocktail and dinner hours. Her repertoire of music was expansive, and the guests really enjoyed her music

We hosted our rehearsal dinner at the Brick, and had a fabulous experience. While the space is large, they made the room feel perfect for our smaller, 65-person event. De is awesome to work with; she made herself and the space available for multiple previews, and for my parents coming early to set up. She also worked with the Navarre team to dial-in a few special menu items to make the experience even more unique. I cannot say enough good things!

With a passion for photography and a love for meeting new people, I'm dedicated to making sure you have beautiful, lasting memories of your most important life events.

My fiance and I had the privilege of working with Laci back in November for our engagement photo shoot. Laci did an outstanding job with the pictures and we were both very pleased with her product! Laci is very professional, and offers a high quality product with very competitive pricing in the photography market! Not only did Laci provide a higher quality product, but she also gave us a higher quantity of pictures than any photographer I have ever seen. Laci is also great to work with, she is very sweet and makes the shoot fun! She had access to beautiful locations that she had clearly taken the time to map out and study beforehand! The best thing I can say about Laci is that she really cares about her client and her product! You don’t see that very often these days, but Laci will inconvenience herself for the benefit of her client, which is just awesome! Needless to say, we immediately rescheduled her to shoot our wedding as well, and are very excited to see her work! Schedule a shoot with Laci, it will be well worth your time and money!

We loved the wedding cake she made for us, we chose pumpkin and snickerdoodle flavorings, showed her an inspiration pic and talked about our amount of people. She delivered! The amount of cake we had was more than enough for how many attendees we had, we should have had some left over. To our surprise, there was not a single slice left! I mean we knew it was good.

Friendship Botanic Gardens is a unique, beautiful setting for the outdoor wedding and other special events. Weddings are scheduled from mid-May through mid-October. Fountains splash, birds sing, and trees tower above. The Gardens include over one hundred acres of woods and landscaped areas, providing one of the most beautiful outdoor venues in Northwest Indiana. The Gardens can accommodate a small and intimate wedding ceremony of a few family and friends, or a larger wedding ceremony up to 300 guests. Friendship Botanic Gardens welcomes and honors all marriages of all types. We do not discriminate against anyone. All weddings include chairs, use of the area for three hours and rehearsal privileges. Arrangements can be made for use of the Bridal Cabin and golf cart shuttle with driver to transport guests to the venue. Ceremonies and receptions will be customized by our wedding coordinator. Weddings over 400 guests can be custom designed to suit your needs.

I picked this location because of how beautiful the landscape is. So many different spots on the property to get married on, all beautiful. Different locations cost different price. Overall, relatively cheap compared to other venues. When talking to them, I first started with one wedding coordinator. She left and was informed about the new coordinator. She introduced herself and thought she was awesome. She was very tentative to all the details and was very helpful. I wasn’t informed that she had left and a new coordinator had taken her spot. I didn’t know there was a new coordinator until the day before the wedding. She didn’t take charge of anything. She took a back seat to everything. Told her I had a specific song I wanted to play for walking down the aisle. There wasn’t any sort practice with the song at the rehearsal. She couldn’t figure out how to connect my phone to the sound system. She couldn’t figure out how to navigate the song that I had already pulled up on my phone.

I wish I could give them more than 5 stars! From start to finish, Oakwood made our wedding dreams come true. The event coordinators are amazing at what they do. They are prompt, knowledgeable and beyond helpful. We got married on the lakeside & had our reception by the Gazebo. The venue is breathtaking. The service is spectacular. My guests said it was the best wedding food they have every had. The bartenders made amazing drinks and people rarely had to wait. The night started and ended perfectly, I am beyond happy with my experience. If you are looking for a wedding venue in the IN area, this is it. No need to look further. You won’t regret it!!!!

I'm Katie Whitcomb. I am a classic wedding photographer based out of the Notre Dame, IN area. I stop in my tracks for a bright orange sunset, I'm obsessed with all tropical plants (seriously, my foyer is a jungle) and the feeling I get every time I walk into the Basilica of the Sacred Heart will never get old. Thank you for coming by. Let me know if I can do anything to help along the way.

Katie is the most amazing wedding photographer. She blows everyone else out of the water; it's not even close. She photographed my brother's Cape Cod wedding last summer and was so amazing that my family had to hire her for my Philly wedding this summer. She is professional, organized, and involved. She provides a wonderful timeline that sketches out your day in terms of photos. She keeps in touch often throughout the engagement process and helps you develop a vision of your wedding. She is kind and fun!!! She is a wonderful "cheerleader" to have with you on your big day in addition to being the best vendor ever. Then there's her photos. They are seriously gorgeous. They are timeless, classic, and romantic. She has developed a craft that is unmatched. All of my guests have been floored with the photos. Katie just the best!
