Indiana Landmarks Center shows that when a great historic building loses its original purpose, it need not be the end of the story. The Romanesque Revival-style building at 1201 Central Avenue began life in 1891 as Central Avenue Methodist Church, with additions in 1900 and 1922. For decades, it housed the largest Methodist congregation in the state. For your wedding, Indiana Landmarks Center offers a setting like no other.

I was very pleased with working with the team at the Indiana Landmark! We absolutely love this venue and we are so glad we chose it for our wedding day! It was a pleasure working with Tara and April through out my wedding planning process. We worked extremely well together and my planning expertise helped the process of working with them! It was smooth sailing from the day we booked the venue all the way up until the rehearsal and day of! I am so glad I got to work with this wonderful team and I look forward to booking some of my own clients there in the future! Thank you so much again

The day of the wedding was awesome, but leading up to the wedding, getting ahold of them was exhausting. It wasn’t until I badgered them with calls and multiple emails that I would finally get answers. I think if you’re on a budget they’re perfect, but seriously plan your wedding 1.5/2 years out because it takes a life time to get decisions made.
