The team at Buskirk-Chumley Theater provided excellent communication and consistency throughout the entire wedding planning process. Their friendly and professional staff were a huge help, walking me through every detail needed for the space. The quality of their work and the value they provided was top-notch - they even included a tech specialist who assisted with the lighting and music setup. The staff arrived early and had the tables beautifully arranged, making the day so easy and stress-free. I'm grateful for their large, high-quality contribution to making our special day a success!

The team at the Stutz was overall amazing!! There were a few hiccup because I wasn’t exactly sure who I was supposed to be communicating with just because I talked to 2 or 3 people in the beginning, by the time event day came it was absolutely amazing!! Sarah was so wondering the day before and the day of. Any questions we had she’s readily available. There is of course so much happening during the day if the ceremony but Sarah or someone else from that staff was not far away and we were able to get everything we needed taken care of.

She was there on our big day and kept everything running smoothly, plus our son just loved her! She really went above and beyond to make our day special and we are forever thankful. Plus our bartender was awesome too! If you are looking for a beautiful venue in a cute small town, book the Gatewood

From the onset when we first started talking to Bill and his team, he was attentive to our vision. His thoughtfulness, communication, and feedback helped put our minds at ease during the whole planning process. The mansion really is a one stop shop, especially if you have a more intimate wedding planned. Glassware, stemware, cutlery, and dishes are all available for the reception. We had our wedding in the fall and knew that we wanted amber glasses/ decor for the event and had let Bill know we were purchasing some of this for our guests to use. What we didn’t expect was for him to give us access to all of the existing decor in the mansion that matched our aesthetic. You’re truly not just getting a fantastic venue; you’re working with an amazing person. We also originally planned to have a tent for the reception (which Bill gave a list of recommended places to rent from), as well as our ceremony in a different part of the venue. We changed our mind as the wedding got closer and Bill was not only flexible with this, but supportive and understanding. He helped us layout where we wanted certain decorations to go, how the seating should be arrange, and helped us map out what the day of the wedding would look like. He was so professional and was arguably as excited about our wedding as we were. Leading up to the day of the wedding, some of our guests were staying at the mansion. Bill and his team prepared the rooms for our guests and even made the moments before the wedding memorable as well. They had full use of the mansion and he was a call away if anything was needed. The backyard was decorated with strings of lights, a dance floor, and he had both pews and chairs for our guests to sit in during the ceremony. As for the venue itself, it was originally built by a furniture manufacture near the early twentieth century. The incredibly detailed woodwork throughout the house and in the historic dining room furniture reflect this history beautifully. The downstairs has two fireplaces that made perfect locations for family and group photographs. A freak thunderstorm delayed our departure from the venue, and once again, Bill came through by allowing us to stay an additional night there to ensure our travels were safe. You really can search across the country, but we truly don’t believe you will find a better venue or team than you would here. It made a potentially stressful event into such an amazing start to our marriage.

The Indiana Statehouse did a wonderful job hosting our wedding! They were willing to accommodate our wedding with only a 3 week notice after Covid ruined our initial wedding plans, which meant so much to us. Tracy & Terry were very personable and quick to communicate with us, which eased a lot of our planning stress. Not to mention that our wedding pictures are phenomenal thanks to the beautiful architecture on the inside! I felt like a princess in a fairytale when I walked down the marble staircase. We highly recommend the Statehouse if you are looking for a beautiful and affordable wedding!

I don’t even know where to begin. Before the wedding day, Grace, Klara, and Tina went above and beyond on every single detail to make this day truly special. They were there every step of the way and responded so quickly. I know they were working with so many other weddings, but made me feel special like I was the only wedding they were focusing on. I knew the wedding day was going to be beautiful through the planning process but I couldn’t imagine it being as beautiful as it was. From the morning of getting ready, to riding away at night I was in awe the entire time. I felt like the luckiest girl/bride in the world getting married there and having the support from all the staff and support.
