Things To Do

Although Cicero IN is where we are getting married, Riley and Emma spend most of their time around Indianapolis. Indy is a rapidly growing small city, with plenty of charm and local pastimes. Here are some of our beloved spots to visit.

Garfield Park Conservatory

2505 Conservatory Drive, Indianapolis, IN 46203

Though smaller than her Chicago sister, Garfield Park Conservatory is still a lovely spot to linger. Riley and Emma had their engagement photos documented (by Christine Pelliccio!) at this revitalizing place.

Amberson Coffee & Grocer

401 South College Avenue, Indianapolis, IN 46203

This place will KNOCK YOUR SOCKS OFF. The owner is nationally acclaimed amongst the coffee world, with craft beverages that align with his expertise. Come here for a real treat, brewed with the finest ingredients and technique, served with a whole lotta neighborly love.

Garden Table

342 Massachusetts Avenue, Indianapolis, IN 46204

Our favorite location of this fine eatery is downtown, on the vibrant strip known as Mass Ave. There's also one in Broad Ripple (where Emma works, also a dear place), and Carmel (which is closest to the venue). At Garden Table, local ingredients collide with revelatory takes on brunch cuisine. It's just freakin yum.

Upland Brewing Co

4842 North College Avenue, Indianapolis, IN 46205

Locally crafted beer with Indianapolis flair and cozy interiors. That's pretty much enough said. Although there are multiple fantastic locations, we had our intimate engagement after party at this specific one, filled with crisp drinks and cherished friends. (Emma's note: Do yourself a favor and try the whipped feta)

For all the days along the way
