Where to Get Married in New Castle Indiana | Wedding Venue Showcase

I photograph a lot of weddings — around 35 a year to be exact — and that means that I see a lot of wedding venues. And let me tell you something, my couples have great taste! Sometimes they find places that I didn’t even know existed!

So, I thought I would make a blog series based on some of those venues so that other people in the wedding planning stages can get the insider info on where to host their biggest party <3

First up is the Arts Park in New Castle, Indiana. If you are looking for a venue that has a lot of space and a lot of versatility than this one is for you. The landscaping and light down in the sunken gardens are simply beautiful and will make your wedding look stunning!

I photographed Serena and Chris here this summer and even though it was the hottest day of the year — heat indexes topping out at 104 — we stayed relatively cool because the venue is shaded and sits below the heat of the city.

Here is an exerpt from the Arts Park and Pavilion website:

The Arts Park and Pavilion: Rental of the Park and Pavilion includes the Gazebo, the concession/kitchen area and two restrooms. The entire area is rented for the day (8am to midnight). The Pavilion is a 195′ X 150′ facility. There are electrical outlets located throughout the Pavilion and a large stage. The Park is a beautiful, natural landscape of trees, flowers, a pond and paths and benches throughout. Parking is available in the large public lot south of the Park and along 15th street at the west edge of the Park. Both parking areas have access to the Park.

A Military Wedding in Lafayette | Sneak Peek

Throughout the chaos of small children, these two tied the knot at Arborwood in Frankfort, Indiana just outside of Lafayette. I had no idea that this venue even existed so here I am, bringing it to you guys for your future wedding planning!

The Barns at Hawks Point Wedding in Anderson, Indiana

“When the night has come and the land is dark, and the moon is the only light we’ll see, I won’t be afraid, just as long as you stand by me.” — Ben E. King

It’s always a special treat when I get to photograph a wedding in my own backyard. Typically I’m on the road traveling for weddings so to get the call for a Anderson Wedding Venue is always nice! PLUS, these two are dog lovers and you all know how much I love me some animals!

The Barns at Hawks Point is one of my favorite Wedding Venues and I absolutely love shooting there. In fact I am photographing another wedding there this year and I am so excited that I get to be a part of such a wonderful day for these couples <3

First Birthday Photographer in Fishers, Indiana

The best birthdays are those spent with friends :)

If you turn one and don’t have your party professionally photographed, did it really ever happen? I absolutely love it when parents hire me to photograph one year birthday parties because it frees them up to actually enjoy the opening of presents (and birthday cake) without worry about being stuck behind a camera.

Wedding at Krohn Conservatory in Cincinnati, Ohio

“It was a million tiny little things that, when you added them all up, they meant we were supposed to be together…and I knew it.” — Sleepless in Seattle

It rained. All Day. Luckily, the Krohn Conservatory is an excellent wedding venue for the fickle nature of Midwest weather. It’s always green, always comfortable and always beautiful. I absolutely love photographing weddings in greenhouses!

Shout out to DJ Blayde for keeping the party going strong!
