Guest Blog from The Indiana State Museum:
The Indiana State Museum is always thrilled to host a wedding DJ’d by Jim Cerone. He creates a lively atmosphere for guests by achieving the perfect mix of fun, professionalism, and attention to detail.
If you care about the atmosphere of your wedding, then you will also care about another significant decision: the venue.
The venue sets the tone for the entire event, and especially nowadays, must prioritize the health and safety of your guests. Choosing the best venue requires three important considerations:
Outdoor Space
Outdoor spaces are a popular venue choice for couples this year in order to accommodate current health and safety guidelines. When touring a wedding venue, ask the tour guide to show you their outdoor options with photos from previous events held in these spaces.
Did you know that the Indiana State Museum offers four unique outdoor spaces? Imagine saying “I do” on a summer afternoon nestled in our Redbud Grove or closing the evening with cocktails overlooking the canal and city skyline on our West Canal Terrace. You can check out more of our scenic outdoor options here.
Indoor Space
Any outdoor wedding requires a rainy-day back-up plan, and any indoor wedding must provide ample space for physical distancing. Plan for the convenience of your guests by selecting one venue that can host the ceremony, reception, cocktail hour, rehearsal dinner, and other related gatherings. One venue with several event spaces can allow for a convenient, safe, and seamless wedding experience.
The Indiana State Museum offers a variety of indoor spaces, such as our popular Great Hall, Rapp Reception Hall, and East Wing. The museum hosts one event per day, allowing you countless options for your wedding. The entire museum is your blank canvas for a masterpiece event.
Jim’s years of expertise allow him to adapt to almost any wedding set-up, whether you host an unforgettable reception in our Great Hall that boasts a 100-foot ceiling or a picturesque dinner on our Canal Overlook Bridge.
Venue Location
The city or environment surrounding the venue also plays a major role in your event. You must consider the ambience and views, hotel accommodations for out-of-town guests, and activities within walking distance. Once Jim sends you off on a grand exit, the destination is yours to explore with your new spouse and guests.
The Indiana State Museum is located across the street from a complex of five Marriott hotels, including the upscale JW Marriott. Situated within White River State Park, guests are immersed in arts and culture, with nearby attractions such as Victory Field and the Eiteljorg. You also can’t beat our skyline views and location by the canal.
In Conclusion…
You have many factors to think about for your big day. Don’t worry: if you are considering Jim Cerone as your Perfect Host, we know you already have great taste.
