Thank you Kaela, Andrea, Matthew, Melissa, Elliot and the whole team! We planned a last minute event at the industry that had some irregular moving parts and the whole staff were kind and accommodating. We can't thank you enough! My team has also coordinated/managed weddings at INDUSTRY which resulted in very happy couples. The space has a lot of natural light which is great for photos. The venue includes a bridal suite, groom's suite, metal cafe chairs, farm wood tables, and you are able to move the reception furniture to suite your needs.

In July 2023 we had our dream wedding at INDUSTRY! Everything was so perfect from the coordination to the actual celebration! Alisa was our client concierge, and she helped us so much throughout the planning process and made our wedding weekend so stress-free! INDUSTRY staff was overall incredible during our event as well because they set up decorations, coordinated with other vendors, tore down and packed up for us, provided the bar service, and we didn't have to worry about a single thing. The space was also very clean and spacious! The cost of renting the space is in my opinion on the pricier side, but that is how the wedding industry is nowadays, so it would be hard to find a place with the same amenities at a better price. Overall, we have zero regrets or complaints and would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to get married in downtown Indianapolis!

The Industry was my dream venue for over five years. Once I finally got engaged, I was so excited to book with them. From the moment I booked I was extremely let down by the lack of human contact you receive as a bride. Every single email you receive throughout the planning process is automated from a robot. If you try to email your sales rep, you immediately get a message that they are busy, and you will hear from them in a couple of days, even days before the wedding. Multiple meetings I showed up to, my sales rep forgot about, which caused me to have to reschedule. You are nickel and dimed on everything and required to pay for day of insurance, $350 for a security guard, $250 if you use your own caterer, etc. We paid for day of insurance and sent it to our sales rep weeks ahead of time which she clearly did not read through... because ON THE MORNING OF MY WEDDING I WAS CALLED AND TOLD WE DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH INSURANCE COVERAGE AND NO ONE WOULD BE ALLOWED TO ENTER THE BUILDING UNTIL WE DID. She failed to do her job and review our documents, and created absolute chaos and terror on my wedding day. The staff is detached from you throughout the planning process and causes you to feel less then cared for. The building is beautiful, but the people are terrible to work with. I would not recommend them to anyone.

We had such a wonderful experience using INDUSTRY as our wedding venue and coordination! I was immediately drawn to the building's large windows and exposed brick. It's truly a beautiful venue. What really sold me is that we were able to to hold the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception all in the same building while each having their own separate spaces. Not to mention the "getting ready rooms" we used for hair and makeup. INDUSTRY was able to comfortably hold our 200 guests while still accommodating the 4-piece band and a large dance floor. The space looked beautiful, and I mean BEAUTIFUL, during our mid-December evening wedding.The coordination service deserves its own paragraph. Wedding coordination was not something I had put much thought into before I began planning my own. I guess I'd always assumed that my wedding would be fairly simple and wouldn't require a ton of work the day-of. This is actually laughable now. Because of Andrea, our INDUSTRY coordinator, I was able to show up to the venue at 9am and remain totally and completely relaxed the entire day. My mom even got to do the same! Andrea completely handled the decor setup, vendor coordination (band, florist, catering, rentals), room flips, tear down and so much more. We had several meetings leading up to the wedding day where we planned the timeline, floor plan and answered all of my many questions along the way. I truly cannot recommend INDUSTRY's coordination enough.

Absolute PerfectionIndustry is officially my new favorite venue. Coming from an event planner - trust me when I say that's high praise. This post-industrial space is exactly what the planner ordered! From the beautifully exposed brick, to the gorgeous lighting, from the wrap-around windows to the functional garage doors, this space is a feast for the senses. There are both large and midsize rooms available, or you can combine the spaces effortlessly.There also appears to be a small space which could be used as a prep kitchen. The space is accessible and includes a ramp for differently abled guests. There is also parking available on the premises.I can't wait to plan a pretty little event in this space!

I would like to preface my review by saying that I do events for a living. I have extensive experience with most of the venues in Indianapolis. All that to say this is not my first rodeo and I realize that in any given event space is unique and there are bound to be hick-ups no matter how well things are planned. You prepare as best you can and try to be flexible as appropriate.Industry is exactly what my husband and I were looking for when we started planning our wedding. The ability to choose our own vendors was a major selling point. But as we continued the planning process we encountered challenges at nearly every turn. I am not going to get into the nitty gritty because honestly it is a laundry list and it seems like with every review the Industry team has a rebuttal for every single point of complaint or contention. Sure there are extenuating circumstances sometimes BUT sometimes it is more professional to accept the criticism and work to do better. And I guess that is my take away for Industry and anyone who is considering this venue. They need to do better, the opportunity is there and if they correct some of these issues not only will the venue thrive but the people that come after us will be SO much less stressed planning their event. Because having our event at Industry was far from a walk in the park. Read the other reviews and trust the opinions of those who've actually hosted events at the venue(not just the positive reviews of friends and family associated with the venue) because the lesson we learned was that if it seems too good to be true it probably is....

We fell in love with Industry as soon as we saw it. We were beginning our search for a venue for our wedding and had no idea we would need not look any further than one place! It is stunning with its huge windows and doors, exposed brick everywhere, and large space. We have had endless comments from our wedding guests about how beautiful Industry is. We also booked a month-of coordinator at Industry, Anjulie Farmer. She met with us several times throughout the year and then took over all coordination the month of the wedding. Anjulie made herself available to answer questions any time we had any, was extremely helpful during our planning, and had thoughtful, creative ideas. But what stands out the most was the work that she and her assistant did on the day of our wedding, which far exceeded our expectations! Anjulie was outstanding at keeping everything organized and on track, and we are so very grateful for her decorating skills. She worked quickly and efficiently for almost 12 straight hours and was still smiling at the end of it!! We could not be any more pleased with the job she did; she is excellent.For anyone in search of the perfect venue, look no further. Seriously.

Our school hosted a recruiting social at industry and we will definitely do it again. The space is lovely, very spacious and is customizable to almost anything you want to transform it into...or not. From reservation to the end of the event, Andrea and her staff were very professional and personable. Our event was a huge success. Guess where we're hosting our next event?

We had a great experience at Industry for our wedding back in January. One of the best parts of the venue was our wedding planner, Alisa. Alisa was incredible to work with, she was super responsive, stayed on top of things the whole time, and I couldn't have asked for a better day of experience. She did everything from keeping us on time from ceremony through the end of the reception, to fixing my bustle, to managing vendor drop offs and schedules so we didn't have to. I didn't have to worry about anything and could just enjoy the day. Thank you to Alisa, and HIGHLY recommend her!

We absolutely loved hosting our wedding at Industry! We toured Industry over 2 years ago and from the moment we stepped inside we knew it was the venue for us. Our wedding planning was a bit of a roller coaster due to Covid, but Industry and our planning coordinator Alisa made the process completely stress-free. 2 years later we finally had our big day and it was absolutely perfect. Alisa helped us with all of the logistics and put my mind at ease so that we could enjoy our celebration! It was absolutely beautiful and we received so many compliments on the venue. Some of my favorite aspects of the venue were: having the venue for a full 24 hours, the coordination package, the bridal suite (stunning!), the industrial vibe, free parking, and being able to choose our own caterer if we wanted. I would definitely recommend Industry!
