Amanda J. Sent on 08/04/2022Best Day Ever.
My husband and I recently got married at Avon Gardens on June 25th, 2022. What an absolute DREAM! If you are looking to be married outdoors in the most beautiful outdoor setting you just found your wedding venue. From the moment we first booked to the moment we arrived for the rehearsal I knew we were in great hands. The staff we worked with (Karen, Tori and Sherry) were all knowledgeable and professional. They certainly put my mind at ease for such a busy and important day. My family didn’t have to do a single thing day of for set up. Their staff took notes at the rehearsal and had everything ready to go for the big day. Our guests (and myself) were in awe by how immaculate the gardens were kept. I had multiple guests tell me it was the most beautiful wedding they had ever been to. I can’t wait to see the pictures from the photographer as the night sky had the perfect sunset backdrop! Thanks again to everyone at Avon Gardens for creating memories to last a lifetime! -

I love a pros and cons list so here we go!
Pros:
(1) The gardens are STUNNING! I mean, wow. (2) The staff is perfection. Didn't even need a day-of coordinator. (The DJ also helped with the timeline!) (3) You get to choose your own food/alcohol vendors. (4) More cost-effective than a lot of venues (5) Rentable items (signs, center pieces, table numbers, card/gift holder)
***************************************************************************************************************
Cons:
(1) If you live in Indy, traffic is a nightmare. Even on Saturday morning when we went to pick up our car, still horrible. (2) They charge $300/hour for the "getting ready room"—I had assumed that would be included (3) There's an extra tent charge based on guest numbers. (Despite the tents being rented and set up anyway 24/7.) We also didn't know that until the final payment was due.
*****************************************************************************************************************
Honestly—the pros definitely outweighed the cons. I was a stressed bride, but really shouldn't have been. They had thought of most things and covered it for us. And those cons are communication problems or policies that could be easily fixed. The team is fantastic, the grounds are gorgeous, and the price is solid. :) -

Andrea G. Sent on 08/28/2021Amazing wedding venue the place to have your wedding
Avon Gardens was our wedding venue. I got married on June 11 of this year. It was amazing. I can’t complain Avon gardens was a magical place to have our wedding. We were so pleased and grateful with the staff from Avon gardens who made our wedding dreams come true. They helped us decorate putting every details in order. They were so attentive in every details for the wedding. During our final meeting, to our rehearsal before the wedding and the day of the wedding. They made every wish and detail possible to even having our projector placed for our wedding video to show. They made us feel every time welcomed. The place is beautiful there’s changing room with cool air, bathrooms outside . In the night they place candles around and lights it’s romantic and magical. Avon Gardens is the place to have your wedding. Thank you Avon gardens staff for all you did to make our wedding dream come true. -

We absolutely loved having our wedding here. Even out of peak season, the place was beautiful and the setup was above and beyond! Staff were welcoming and made the day was less stressful for us. We enjoyed the flexibility offered here (ability to have our own caterers, set up layout/lots of space) and would absolutely recommend Avon Gardens! -

Kristen Sent on 06/10/2019Beautiful venue, great value
The staff at Avon Gardens were wonderful. Our wedding was absolutely beautiful and all of the guests raved about the setting. The staff at Avon Gardens were responsive and absolutely willing to do whatever it took to make my wedding vision come true. The fact that they do all of the set-up and tear down was an important factor in my decision to use Avon Gardens and they did a great job. Being that my husband and I are a bit older than the average couple, our parents are in their 70's and I didn't want them to be left with a bunch of physical work at the end of the reception, but the staff packed all of the decorations and loaded it into the cars for them! This venue is absolutely gorgeous and I would recommend it to anyone without reservation. My guests told me it was like being in a real-life fairy tale, and the photos are simply dreamy. Karen, Stacy, and the rest of the staff were helpful, professional, and great to work with. Thank you so much. It was the wedding of my dreams! -

Jackie Sent on 06/05/2018My daughter was married at Avon Gardens on June 2. This is a memorable venue - a natural wonder that takes everyone by surprise by its unexpected color, secret hideaways, perfect picture spots, and attention to detail. What's even better is that the staff is so experienced that they set up the venue quickly and seem to accommodate every to-do that the bride has on her list. This day was perfect in every way and much of the credit goes to Avon Gardens.

Ashley Sent on 06/15/2018This past May, my husband and I had our wedding at Avon Gardens and our guest can't stop raving about how beautiful it was! This is hands down the best wedding venue in Indiana! The staff is so friendly and passionate about what they do. If we had any questions along the way , they always took time to answer our questions and got back to us right away! They make sure everything runs smoothly and take care of so many things behind the scenes. They truly care about what they do and work really hard to make sure you and your guests have a wonderful time!

User2402874 Sent on 10/31/2015I got married here in August and LOVED that I chose this venue! The venue may appear pricy up front, but being able to select any caterer we want and buying our own alcohol made the price of this venue reasonable. Also, with this venue, we had Amanda as our day-of person, and she did a BEAUTIFUL job of setting up all of the miscellaneous things for our wedding day, which helped my family really enjoy the day. We first got a tour of the gardens with Karen, and we were just stunned at the beauty that just keeps on going. If you want a beautiful garden wedding, definitely go on a tour here! Her contract is really low-key, and we appreciated the freedom. The money was due 4 weeks before the wedding, and when we went, we told her about our schedule and she let us pick out the flowers we wanted to decorate the arbor. The day before the wedding was our rehearsal, and we brought everything that we could with us, then told Amanda what everything was and where we wanted it (thinks like the programs, guestbook, centerpieces, etc). The day of the wedding, everything was set up in the dressing rooms for the bridal party + immediate family, and the day went so perfect!! I was really amazed at how easy they made my wedding day go. I also loved how the venue exudes this beautiful, magical atmosphere, and the staff of AG were so professional and wonderful. Overall I had a wonderful day and wouldn't change anything, I highly recommend this as a wedding venue!!!

User2165928 Sent on 06/06/2015I had my wedding at Avon Gardens in May 2015. The venue was absolutely wonderful - more beautiful than I could have imagined! They were very responsive through email so I had minimal anxiety about the venue in the weeks approaching the wedding. They have you bring all your decorations to your rehearsal and set them up so there's no work for the couple or family on the day of the wedding. We had a misunderstanding with the florist and the venue stepped in to help us with that situation with no extra cost, and the result was beautiful. We found them to be very reasonably priced compared to other venues in the area, with fewer restrictions - for example, there's no catering requirement, which was really important to us. We also did not hire a professional wedding bartender, but had an open bar with a couple of people tending the bar who had some experience. They were happy to set up the bar for us and provided ice throughout the evening, and we only had to purchase liquor liability insurance ($150). I would absolutely recommend this venue highly to anyone interested in an outdoor wedding! -

Sarah Sent on 09/10/2014I have nothing negative to say about this venue! BJ was a pleasure to work with and helped to create a magical wedding. She was organized and on top of everything. They provide all the essentials to create a perfect wedding. The venue was flawless and so many guests commented that my wedding was the most beautiful wedding they had been to. The beautiful gardens are more than enough decoration and backdrop for the picture perfect wedding. We were lucky enough to have amazing weather. I'd love to get married over and over again (the the same man) at this venue, it was so perfect! -

User2240815 Sent on 07/24/2015My husband and I got married at Avon Gardens in July 2014, and we couldn't have been happier with how it turned out. B.J. and the rest of the Avon Gardens staff were so kind and helpful. It was pouring down rain and storming up until 45 minutes before our ceremony started at 10:30 a.m., and the staff were out there drying the grass for us. It was also very helpful that the staff sets up all of the tables, chairs, and decorations. I couldn't have imagined getting married anywhere else; Avon Gardens is such a beautiful place to have a wedding.
