HEATHER & CHRISTINE’S OUTDOOR WEDDING IN NILES | DJ, CEREMONY

HEATHER & CHRISTINE’S OUTDOOR WEDDING IN NILES | DJ, CEREMONY

South Bend couple Heather and Christine were engaged back in early 2019 and knew right away they wanted something special for their upcoming 2020 wedding. The ceremony and reception would be outside; and with a guest list of under 100 people, they knew they wanted an intimate setting that felt comfortable and welcoming, something more like a backyard than an over-the-top lake front property or giant estate.

LIZZIE & PATRICK WED AT THE SPOHN BALLROOM IN GOSHEN | DJ, CEREMONY

The way the afternoon light streams through the west-facing windows in the historic Spohn Ballroom on a late summer day is something special. And so is this venue, with its 3rd floor vantage point on the corner of Main and Clinton Streets overlooking the Courthouse square in picturesque downtown Goshen. You can almost imagine yourself back in time 100 years ago with the bustling Main Street in Goshen in full swing: Cable cars rushing back and forth, the Hotel Goshen welcoming weary travelers across the street and the Olympia Candy Kitchen serving up sodas and other sweet treats from its lunch counter next door.

ST. JOE FARM IN GRANGER HOSTS RILEY AND AARON’S WEDDING | DJ, CEREMONY

Barn venues in Northern Indiana are kind of “par for the course” as they say, but the guest experience and the look from barn to barn varies widely…some properties are absolutely stunning, Instagram-perfect visions straight out of Pintrest with top-notch staff. Other are…well…not. Without question though, our favorite barn venue in St. Joseph county Indiana is St. Joe Farm, and it’s a stunner.

Nothing says summer in Indiana like sunshine, warm weather, and berry picking!

THE ARMORY IS HOST TO BRIT & JEREMY'S WEDDING DAY | CEREMONY, DJ, UPLIGHTING

THE ARMORY IS HOST TO BRIT & JEREMY'S WEDDING DAY | CEREMONY, DJ, UPLIGHTING

Unique, one-of-a-kind venues are places that make us excited to be a part of a wedding, and The Armory in South Bend falls perfectly into that category.  Brick walls, refinished wood floors, industrial ceilings - woohoo! And that's exactly what South Bend sweethearts Brit and Jeremy wanted for their wedding reception.

The Armory was the former Newman Recreation Center, located at Eddy Street and Northside Boulevard across from the South Bend Farmer’s Market.  Thankfully developer Brad Emberton saw more in this building and spearheaded the renovation project along with Kurt Janowsky from Navarre Hospitality Group.

MADISON & CODY'S COUNTRYSIDE WEDDING IN GOSHEN, IN | CEREMONY, DJ

MADISON & CODY'S COUNTRYSIDE WEDDING IN GOSHEN, IN | CEREMONY, DJ

Rock Run Creek Barn is a beautiful venue in Goshen, Indiana, with historic big red barn charm and modern amenities like heat, indoor restrooms and a lower floor that becomes the perfect location for a wedding ceremony when the weather just isn't cooperating.

Madison and Cody knew their November wedding would have an incredibly scenic vista of fall color, but they proactively chose to have an indoor ceremony to take a bit of the Indiana fall unpredictability out of the equation.

PAULA & DON'S CHARMING DOWNTOWN GOSHEN WEDDING | CEREMONY, DJ, UPLIGHTING

When Paula and Don arrived at our office in Don’s custom VW Beetle for their initial free consultation, we could tell right away they were a special couple. Don’s a jokester, and he wasted no time making us laugh in telling the story of his work with the Edward Lowe Foundation, the roots of the Lowe fortune in kitty litter, and how he planned to throw kitty litter instead of rice following the ceremony! Paula may have had a thing or two to say about that, but either way, the couple was planning for a fun ceremony and reception after having met on a blind date just 8 months before.

KARALYN & DAN'S BEAUTIFUL WEDDING AT ROCK RUN CREEK BARN | DJ, CEREMONY, UPLIGHTING

KARALYN & DAN'S BEAUTIFUL WEDDING AT ROCK RUN CREEK BARN | DJ, CEREMONY, UPLIGHTING

The start of fall in Elkhart County is beautiful.  You can see the stunning shades of red, orange and yellow start to develop. Combined this with golden-pink sunsets, farmers harvesting their fields, big red barns, and winding lanes and you've got an Instagram-worthy backdrop for your wedding!

This is exactly the vibe that Karalyn and Dan wanted for the wedding ceremony and reception. This Fort Wayne-based couple found Rock Run Creek Barn online and fell in love. Why wouldn't they?  It has all of those make-our-Midwestern-hearts-swell amenities, it's an 1850’s restored barn that is heated and features inside restrooms ... oh, and it's handicap accessible! Such a big WIN for these fall days where the sun in shining but isn't providing a lot of warmth!
