I recently had the pleasure of visiting and interviewing some of the wonderful staff at The Sixpence, an extraordinary wedding venue located in Indianapolis. Today, I’ll be sharing with you the insights and information I gathered from my conversations with Tony, the Director of Sales, and Kristen, the Venue Manager. Let’s dive into what makes The Sixpence so special.
A Purpose-Built Gem
The Sixpence is a relatively new addition to the Indianapolis wedding scene, having opened its doors in July of 2021. What makes it unique is that it was intentionally built to cater exclusively to weddings and events. In a time when most venues repurpose existing spaces, The Sixpence stands out as one of the few purpose-built venues in Indiana. This distinction allows them to offer unmatched flexibility in creating events of any shape and size.
Year-Round Comfort
One standout feature of The Sixpence is its ability to host events year-round. With fully heated concrete floors, excellent heating and air conditioning systems, you can be confident that your wedding will be comfortable no matter the season. This versatility is a significant advantage, as it allows couples to plan their special day without worrying about weather constraints.
Personalized Guidance
Tony emphasized the venue’s commitment to providing detailed information to couples to help them plan their dream wedding. The staff at The Sixpence takes pride in guiding couples throughout the entire event planning process. Whether it’s selecting from various indoor and outdoor spaces, arranging logistics, or offering advice on preferred vendors, the team is there every step of the way.
Favorite Spaces
The Sixpence boasts a variety of beautiful spaces, making it challenging for Tony to choose a favorite. However, he highlighted the “workshop” as a unique and favorite space for the groom and his party. This man cave offers an exceptional getting-ready experience for the guys, complete with pool tables, billiards, large TVs, and a stainless steel bar. It’s a testament to The Sixpence’s dedication to ensuring that both brides and grooms have an amazing wedding day experience.
Unforgettable Moments
Kristen, the Venue Manager, shared some of the unforgettable moments she has witnessed at The Sixpence. From weddings featuring ice sculptures to ax throwing, this venue has seen it all. Kristen also mentioned a recent runway show held at the venue, showcasing its adaptability for various events beyond weddings.
Supporting Dream Weddings
Kristen’s role at The Sixpence involves helping couples plan every detail of their wedding day. From two planning meetings to discussing customizable bar options and floor plans, the staff ensures that couples feel supported and informed throughout the process. They also offer a list of preferred vendors, providing couples with trusted recommendations for their big day.
Collaborative Approach
The Sixpence values its relationship with vendors, including photographers like myself. Open communication is key, from the planning stages to the event day. The venue’s managers regularly check in with vendors to ensure they have everything they need. This collaborative approach ensures that everyone works seamlessly together to create unforgettable wedding experiences.
The Sixpence is more than just a wedding venue; it’s a partner in creating your dream wedding. With its purpose-built design, year-round comfort, and a dedicated team of professionals, The Sixpence is a standout choice for couples looking for a unique and memorable wedding experience in Indianapolis. If you’re planning your wedding in the area, consider The Sixpence as the canvas for your special day’s masterpiece.
