Yes! You’ll love working with our friendly planners, who can help you organize your day from start to finish. We’ll take the time to learn about you as a couple and understand your hopes and desires for the day. From there, we can take care of anything you need to make your wedding day uniquely your own.
Your wedding can be as large or as small as you want. We can host anywhere from 5 to 1,200 people at our venue. If you’d like to use our ballroom for your reception, we can host up to 300 guests in that particular space.
Yes! While we offer a number of indoor spaces like our formal ballroom, we find that couples are especially attracted to our outdoor spaces. Our museum is surrounded by sculptures and gardens and is set in the breathtaking White River State Park, so your wedding photos will be unlike anything you’ve ever seen before. Whether you want your wedding to overlook the park or the Downtown Canal, your wedding day is sure to be unforgettable.
We often help with rehearsal dinners for our brides and grooms! After you’ve finished rehearsal, you can come enjoy a catered meal in a designated space of your choosing, depending on the size of your group. You can work with our friendly wedding team to plan a rehearsal dinner that will set the perfect mood for the following day.
We do have tried-and-true vendors we would be willing to recommend if you aren’t sure where to start. We welcome outside vendors, but we ask that you discuss them with your Eiteljorg wedding team ahead of time so we can plan appropriately. We will also want to provide your vendors with information about the venue as well as a set of guidelines for a successful event.
One thing you won’t want to miss out on is our exclusive catering partner, Kahn’s Catering, which caters for all of our weddings here at the Eiteljorg. You’ll love their huge selection and high-end dishes, which will take your wedding to the next level.

Part of the advantage to having your wedding at a museum is the fact that your guests can enjoy the beauty of the building and the accessible exhibits like our outdoor collection during the reception. If you are off taking photos, you don’t have to worry that your guests are sitting idle, waiting for you to return for the fun to start.
The Eitejorg offers free parking to guests in the White River State Park underground parking garage while spaces last.
Because the Eiteljorg Museum is located in the heart of Downtown Indianapolis, there are a number of places close by where guests can stay. Get started on your hotel search here, or ask one of our friendly wedding planners about where your guests should stay before and after the event.
