Montage

The annual Exotic Feline Rescue Center Auction was held on March 14, 2020 at the Montage. The event was not only beautiful but the food was amazing and the staff was friendly and extremely attentive. If you remember the Governor announced the day before events could have no more than 150 people in attendance. He was then still teetering toward closing all public gatherings so we were concerned our event would be cancelled at the last minute. The Montage was terrific and worked with us preparing for the worst for both us, and the event center. We ended up being the last event for the Montage until the ban was lifted. We were a very anxious bunch until the doors opened at 3:00. We, and the Montage, made many last minute changes in order to follow the CDC guidelines. We wanted the guests, the volunteers, Committee members and the Montage staff to feel safe. We did lose some guests due to the virus but we totally understood. Those supporters who did attend were greatly appreciated and made for a smaller, very personable and cozy event. Our team and the guests had a great time.There are 4 beautiful rooms each named after wine. We used three of the four rooms for our event. The Cabernet Room had just been updated with new carpet, window coverings, stunning open back chairs and large, stricking light fixtures. The linen selection is impressive and covers practically any color one would desire. They offer an attractive silver candle centerpiece but you can bring in your own centerpieces which we did using floral centerpieces.All the rooms have an exit onto the gorgeous decks overlooking the lake. The patio furniture is comfortable and a great conversation area. Part of the beauty and appeal is the Chardonnay Room which is enclosed in glass floor to ceiling and you have a full view of the gorgeous lake, woods and deck. The Champagne Room is stunning with an outdoor view and lovely woodwork. It connects with the Chardonnay Room which connects to Cabernet Room and made it convenient to browse the silent auction and live auction items available.The food was perfect, exactly as ordered, and delicious. Due to the Covid-19 virus the food was served by the Montage staff with a 6 foot distance rope from the buffet line. Each server was so polite, filled each plate with each persons request and folks loved the food and returned several times. The staff cleared the empty plates from the table quickly.The Montage was an excellent choice for our event, easy to work with and even the owner was on site filling in for our sales consultant who couldn't attend. Everything went well from check in to check out except for the audio in one room which was corrected quickly. If you are planning an event I suggest calling for an appointment at The Montage.

The staff is very welcoming knowledgeable and accommodating. We use this venue for my daughter's wedding and could not have been more pleased. From the rehearsal through the ceremony everything went flawless. The reception was enjoyed by everyone!

Montage on Allison Pointe is an event venue operated by the Kahn's Catering family that is located just west of 82nd and Allisonville Road in the Allison Pointe complex. It's a waterside facility with four distinct special event rooms with each having private entrances and patios. This is valuable as it allows your own event to have a sense of privacy as was the case today when Heartland International Film Festival hosted its awards ceremony in one of the larger rooms while a wedding held an event in another area and had their own private entrance. You can tell this facility has undergone some renovations. It's also one of the more wheelchair friendly event venues I've been to in Indy. The front entrance has a row of accessible parking spots, and I mean truly accessible, and nearly every place I went to in the venue was easily accessed in my wheelchair. While the speaker's podium wasn't accessible, and I was one of the speakers, there's really no way to know if this was because of the actual venue or if it had been mentioned by the event. However, because the microphones could be easily hand-held it was a minor issue and easy to overcome. They offer a sensory technology AV system, exclusive catering, exclusive bartending, and more. Every event rental includes both 60" and 72" round tables, 6' and 8' banquet tables, decorative banquet chairs, china, glassware and silverware, tall and short cocktail tables, and simple silver centerpieces. Weddings also include a dance floor and an easel for escort boards. Enhancements include the AV equipment, coat check service and other items.Every event space has the water view - it's stunning. The event spaces include The Champagne Room, The Riesling Room, The Chardonnay Room, and the Cabernet Room. They also have a garden available for rental and you can rent the entire facility. The majority of the packages include catering minimums. The rooms are exquisite - elegant and formal, yet comfortable and fun. The patios, as near as I could tell, were all easily wheelchair friendly and the facility actually advertises accessibility. The main entrance is level to the ground. If there's one area where I'd poke a little bit of fun, it's in their online brochures - I found about a half dozen obvious typos in one document. I'd advise getting those fixed as it truly is a reflection of not being detail oriented and for a higher-end event space that's not the message you want to send. The staff? They were attentive, friendly, and super efficient without ever being invasive. While I didn't have a ton of food since I was speaking, what I did have was excellent. Overall, I was super impressed and would easily return. I'm always excited when an event space or luxury space goes out of the way to ensure accessibility and such is the case at Montage. With plenty of space options, this is a terrific venue option for weddings, special events, workshops, awards ceremonies or just about anything else you can think of in the corporate/organizational world.

Nice location for a conference. The outdoor space will be beautiful during warm weather. Staff did a nice job with breaks and keeping spaces clean. The food was good. Water was kept topped off which was nice for longer sessions. Restrooms were kept clean even during the busy breaks.

I wish I was able to take some pictures but I was unable to, as I was attending a conference here today. This is a great event space for conferences, larger retreats, weddings and receptions. Kahn's catering is on site and actually delicious! Very colorful food and a great variety of choices. There is an outdoor space as well overlooking a large pond, which is really pretty.For a conference, they need to get some more comfortable chairs but that's my only complaint. When you sit for 6-7 hours, those generic chairs are less than comfortable. The staff interaction was minimal but friendly. The entrance is a little difficult to locate, as it's off to the side and looks like one big window.

Had a work meeting here, and I truly loved the accommodations. The staff was so friendly, polite, and helpful! Both the inside and outside spaces were cozy, and conducive to our activities. Additionally, breakfast, lunch, and snacks were awesome.
