Whether you’re envisioning your vows during a sweet spring day, in the full bloom of summer, beneath autumn leaves, or during the snow-kissed winter – The Sixpence is designed to support unforgettable days, during every season.

THE PROMISE OF SPRING

Spring weddings are a favorite, as these affairs can feature such a range of styles and natural backdrops. Whether the leaves are just budding, or snow is still on the ground, bright floral tones always look striking for these celebrations.

Some of our favorite details from the season:

Light + Airy Florals: New beginnings in the spring inspire couples to opt for light and airy elements, especially in their menu choices. This includes offering light food selections during dinner, floral and fruity desserts, and serving fresh spring cocktails with sweet garnishes.

The Secret Garden: Capturing photos, sharing private moments, and exchanging vows in the garden create an intimate and beautiful experience. At The Sixpence, our Bluebell House Flowers’s lush gardens bloom throughout the spring, creating a stunning moment for any celebration.

THE WARMTH OF SUMMER

Summer weddings mean romping on the lawns, Aperol spritzes at the bar, sun-soaked ceremonies, and unforgettable nights. Take advantage of the long summer days by rearranging the timeline of your day. Host a before an al fresco dinner before your vows to time your ceremony perfectly with the sunset.

Some of our favorite details from the season:

DREAMY DECOR: Bright pops of color through wildflowers, sprawling floral arrangments, signage, and dried fruit bring the feel of summer to life. Unique decor elements such as a disco ball can add an enjoyable touch to your wedding day, bringing the indoor party to life as the sun reflects off the decoration.

OUTDOOR BEVERAGE SERVICE: Embrace the summer weather by encouraging guests to enjoy part of the day outdoors, such as during cocktail hour. At The Sixpence, we offer outdoor bar service, allowing guests to socialize on the patio while also being able to grab a refreshing beverage.

Autumn celebrations offer the most striking backdrops of The Sixpence’s Indiana landscape: with fiery and golden trees across the lawns and woods. Whether you’re celebrating the magic of wedding day in our luxe wooded ceremony space, or keeping cozy indoors, fall weddings are special.

Some of our favorite details from the season:

AUTUMN SIPS + TREATS: Embrace the season with a menu featuring autumn delights such as mini apple pies, spiced cocktails, and hearty main courses.

LET THE AIR IN: Once the reception begins and the celebration is in full swing, consider opening the garage doors at The Sixpence. This allows guests to enjoy the indoor festivities while also stepping outside to chat on our back patio.

THE CRISP AIR OF WINTER

Winter weddings at The Sixpence always stay close to our hearts. These affairs can feel like a glamorous celebration of the holiday season, a cozy reprieve from the snow white outdoors, or anything in between.

Some of our favorite details from the season:

COZY COVER-UPS: Adding soft cover-ups or pairing elegant gloves with your attire creates stunning layers while also keeping you warm in the winter chill.

NODS TO THE SEASON: Opting for a color palette and decor pieces that complement the winter season ensures a stunning aesthetic. Embrace the festive season, by decorating with pine trees, sparkling lights, and touches of emerald and crimson. Or decorate with colder tones such as blue, purple, and white hues reminiscent of snowy weather.

WARM BY THE FIRE: Take a moment to step outdoors to capture photos and embrace the snowy celebration, then warm up by the fire. At The Sixpence, we love starting the fire for our couples to enjoy a cozy moment outdoors together.

  • Heat lamps for patio cocktail hour
