The Blanton House Retreat & Conference Center

This was such a pretty spot of a small wedding. I attended a wedding this past weekend and had a great time there. The staff was super friendly. It is smaller so I wouldn't recommend trying anything too big. Especially if you're outside, which this one was. I am not sure if they have inside options that might be bigger. I always get nervous about out door events just because of weather but we were lucky and had great weather. I've never heard of this place before and I live just outside Danville. I would for sure check it out for smaller events !

Came here for a wedding and it was a nice setup. The outdoor venue creates a very nice atmosphere where people can freely move around. I'm not sure if they prepare the food and drinks, but our meal was pretty good. If you're hosting an event for close to a hundred people I think this would work out well for you.

My husband and I got married here in '09. In between us booking the venue and our actual wedding, they changed the prices and our Sunday wedding ended up costing us $300 less!But what made us fall in love with it originally is the location and the beauty. Located in Danville, IN, it was conveniently centered for all our wedding guests but not too busy! It's a beautiful two story brick building originally built in the 30s. The bride's room looks out over the patio, where we were married. It was so neat to look out over my guests arriving as I was getting ready!Outside caterers are allowed. However, the building is owned by the town so you have to have a permit for any alcohol, including kegs. We only had wine for the two of us during our toast. Our liason was occasionally flaky about getting back to us and they did accidentally double-book the weekend even though we were supposed to have the entire weekend to set up. BUT, if I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't change the venue. The beauty of the fall trees and the old building was too much to pass up, along with the price!
