Beautiful wedding!
Our wedding was beautiful, we couldn’t have asked for a better day or venue. The castle was a stunning backdrop for our wedding. We had our rehearsal dinner, ceremony, and reception at Meyer’s Castle and each piece came perfectly together. The newly redecorated bridal suite is gorgeous and my bridal party and I felt like royalty getting ready. The florals and gardens were stunning and there is an Instagram worthy photo spot around every corner. Our coordinator, Eva, did a great job setting up all of our decor and was very communicative throughout the planning process. Eva and the MC team accommodated everything we wanted to include on our special day and our guests had nothing but wonderful things to say about our wedding. Everyone loved the food and even loved the table wine, numerous guests took photos of the wine so that they could buy a bottle later on. We are so glad to have started the rest of our lives together after saying “I Do” at Meyer’s Castle; surrounded by family, friends, and 2 beautiful peacocks that roam the grounds.
Picture perfect venue
Meyer's Castle is hands down one of the most unique and breathtaking wedding venues in the Midwest! It's a true Indiana gem and the perfect spot for an unforgettable wedding. The ceremony spot on the veranda, perched atop the hill, is absolutely stunning, one of the loveliest in the state. The castle grounds offer endless photo ops with the majestic castle as your backdrop, not to mention the gorgeous gardens, walls, and arbors. And let's not forget about the food - it’s fantastic! I can't recommend it enough!
The wedding of our dreams!
This venue is amazing, I don't even know where to begin. Eva is so kind and helpful, she genuinely cares about each of her brides. Olia is so professional and hardworking. Every one of our guests described the venue as beautiful, gorgeous, and stunning. Our photos were the most beautiful because everywhere you look, there's a photo-worthy spot. The bar area was perfect. The outdoor cocktail hour was perfect, as well as the indoor reception. The kids loved the koi pond. Seriously, the most picture-perfect day. Thank you, Olia and Eva, for all that you do to make this venue the absolute best!! If I could have my wedding day over, I'd choose this place every time.
Meyer’s Castle is truly an amazing venue!
Ah, this venue is a true gem! What sets it apart is the meticulous upkeep throughout. But the best part? When you later receive your wedding photos - they will be like those from a bridal fashion magazine, with this Pinterest-worthy venue as your backdrop. Everyone here is incredibly kind and welcoming. Seriously, you can't go wrong with this place. No other venue in the area will make your guests jaws drop.
