Top Outdoor Wedding Venues In Northwest Indiana

March 21, 2023 Steve Vansak

Although Northwest Indiana weather is infamous for being volatile, we actually have quite a few outdoor wedding venues. I’m going to take you on a tour of a few of these in this article.

Keep in mind that many banquet halls in the area such as Avalon Manor, Villa Cesare and more have outdoor gazebos available to you. However, in this article I’m going to concentrate on those that are known for their outdoor beauty and photo opportunities on site.

Some of these venues even have open air reception areas to keep you covered and yet give you the feeling of the outdoors.

The Year 2022 saw me shooting weddings all over the Midwest. While I’m primarily known as a Northwest Indiana wedding photographer, I do photograph weddings in southwest Michigan, downtown Chicago and various Illinois locations.

I do travel for weddings as a destination wedding photographer as well. Simply contact me here to chat about your destination wedding.

One of the more elegant wedding venues in Northwest Indiana is Uptown Social in Michigan City, Indiana. Michael and Colleen had their reception and the majority of their wedding photos done there just last year.

As part of my Real Weddings video series on IGTV, I am featuring them on Episode 6. You can view that down below as well as on my Instagram feed. It’s just a short overview covering the beginnings of the day through the church ceremony onto the reception.

Enjoy!!

Wedding Venue Spotlight - Sand Creek Country Club

February 19, 2020 Steve Vansak

Today’s Northwest Indiana wedding venue spotlight is the absolutely beautiful Sand Creek Country Club in Chesterton, Indiana. This classy venue can be your all in one location for a wedding with its bridal suite, elegant ceremony area, spacious ballroom and scenic outdoor photo opportunities.

I’ve photographed there in many different seasons, from Fall weddings to Winter weddings to glorious sun filled Spring and Summer nuptials. See Jessica and Mitchell’s Fall wedding at Sand Creek right here.

The indoor ceremony area is separate from the reception ballroom so guests can go directly to cocktail hour or lounge on the back deck overlooking the golf course.

Besides the “clock garden” directly behind the building, some of my favorite locations for photos at the venue include the weeping willow tree and the nearby lake. I also love casual group shots on the patio.

The ballroom is surrounded by windows but when night falls it can become quite the dance club. Sometimes it even snows inside!!
