When searching for that perfect venue in central Indiana, brides have a limitless number of choices. A bright and charismatic space, the Marriott Indianapolis East offers brides the flexibility to shape multiple venue spaces to match the wedding of their dreams. This Indianapolis hotel center boasts five ballrooms and one exhibit hall between two properties, and five hundred guest rooms to help make any couple's wedding dreams a reality.​


The Marriott Indianapolis East is truly a classic all-inclusive venue that takes care of any need, big or small. They provide all tables, chairs, china, glass, silver, linens and basic centerpieces for a hassle-free wedding. Wendy McGinness, Director of Catering Sales for the Marriott Indianapolis East says, “Our ballrooms are all uniquely decorated to fit with any style. We provide all catering with the exception of a cake!”


In this WeddingDay Exclusive Style Shoot, Sarah Journay of Journay and Co. aimed to show off the dignified setting of the Marriott East's Delta Property. Captured by Abbey Elaine Photography, this shoot is themed as a classic garden party while adding in a touch of old-world European flair, to bring to life this timeless, yet vintage aura. To provide an added old-world bonus, the shoot took place in the evening. Sarah says, “Being able to utilize candlelight along with many other old, romantic elements made for an extremely fun and exciting experience!” We love how this space takes on a whole new vibe in the evening light!


The team wanted to soften the space to bring in delicate, muted tones to pair with the natural hues of the venue. A Classic Party Rental provided the stunning chairs, napkins, crystal glasses, and flatware to create the dreamy tablescapes. A fun addition to the shoot was the outdoor ceremony space with a gentle curl of drapery and boxwood wall backdrop brought to life by Atmospheres and Coby Palmer Designs. The bride's hair and makeup, provided by Leanna’s Private Studio, follows a soft, natural palette that leaves her absolutely glowing. And the transition of her hair from gentle waves to a flawless updo is simply perfect!


In addition to the charming décor, a six-foot fireplace mantle, and an exact replica of the Trevi Fountain, The Marriott Indianapolis East is a one-stop-shop for everything a couple needs. Wendy says, “You can host all events in one space from the bridal shower and engagement party to the rehearsal dinner and big day!” Whether your ceremony is big or small, the Marriott Indianapolis East can house each guest comfortably. Complicated rooming situations are a thing of the past with this hotel center! The Marriott Indianapolis East cares for each guest individually by providing discounted guest room blocks for weddings to have all your friends and family under one roof to celebrate to the fullest. The open space of Marriott Indianapolis East will make your wedding a lively one to remember!
