Why You'll Love This Place
A Here Comes The Guide Wedding Venue Review
- Surrounded by over 150 park-like acres of gardens, walking paths, and striking buildings both historic and modern, this unique campus is home to one of the nation’s largest art museums, and is conveniently nestled just a few minutes north of downtown Indianapolis.
- The Garden Terrace is a dreamy spot for outdoor weddings, with a sprawling lawn, tiered fountain, and dazzling seasonal blooms. And as its backdrop, Lilly House—the beautiful chateau-inspired manor home that marks the heart of the original estate.
- For luminous indoor celebrations, opt for the Randolf H. Deer Pavilion, where you’ll find walls of two-story windows framing a gorgeous panorama of the grounds and iconic Sutphin Fountain. A massive oval skylight fills the space with natural light, and the fountain glows with colorful illumination after sunset.
