Aberdeen Manor Ballroom and Event Center

We had our wedding this past October at Aberdeen Manor. Our experience was amazing from the very beginning until the big day! Megan was our event coordinator and she was very helpful when it came to answering questions and keeping us organized up until our wedding day. It truly is a beautiful venue and we were grateful we were able to get married outside in the garden. The food and service was amazing too! I highly recommend booking your Wedding at Aberdeen Manor, you won't regret it!

Our wedding was everything we dreamt of it being and more! Lisa-our coordinator was amazing and very fast at responding to all emails and any questions we had. My dad almost ordered the wrong tux color and Lisa actually caught it and fixed for us. We have no complaints of any kind. Lisa took upon herself to bring out water to the wedding party due to it being a humid while we were taking our wedding photos. Only thing we would recommend that we heard from some guests is that there be appetizers served (if purchased like we did) to the wedding party when taking photos. Some of the wedding party did not get any. Other than that, everything was great and I would recommend this venue! Lisa Allen is amazing!

I had my wedding in August 2022. Aberdeen was beautiful and the perfect choice for us. They do a lot of things "in house" such as catering, decor, and suits for the groom/groomsmen. This was huge for us as I was at school out of state and we were able to do a lot directly through them. (no renting tables/chair/linens) They will do all of the set-up/tear-down which was another thing we were looking for. They were also very communicative and easy to work with, with multiple "check-ins" and meetings. Our coordinator, Megan, was very kind and easy to work with. She answered all of my questions quickly and helped to walk me through every part of the process! They can get busy during certain times of the year with multiple weddings per weekend or even 2 on the same day. We still felt special by Megan and the entire staff. It all depends on what you are looking for and what is important to you! Overall I highly recommend Aberdeen to anyone looking in the NWI area!

My husband and I had our wedding ceremony at the Aberdeen, and this venue is honestly more than we could have ever dreamed of for our special day. The wedding was absolutely beautiful and just as we had envisioned. If you do book with the Aberdeen, I absolutely recommend working with Megan as your Wedding Planner! She was outstanding and made sure that she knew exactly what we pictured beforehand to ensure that we would have the perfect day. With a change in our wedding plans months before the wedding, Megan was so kind, sincere, and accommodating to our needs. Having our wedding at the Aberdeen made my husband and I feel like we didn't have to worry about much else than enjoying the day. (Also, for outdoor weddings, there is a beautiful garden with lots of greenery in the summer!). I 100% recommend this beautiful venue!

Our experience with Aberdeen was everything we could have hoped for and more. Lisa was incredibly detailed during the entire planning process and she helped create our dream wedding day that flowed smoothly and flawlessly. The food was delicious and all of the decor was spot on. Thank you, thank you Aberdeen Manor for our perfect day!!

Aberdeen was our picture perfect venue! We had a mariachi band, we had twinkle lights in the garden, it snowed during our first dance, we had signature drinks, we had late night snacks, we had a cigar bar... so many of our ideas came to life thanks to Lisa, our coordinator, and the Aberdeen team! We are so grateful for our perfect day! I would recommend any bride to give Aberdeen a call!

We absolutely LOVED having our wedding at the Aberdeen Manor & Ballroom! Lisa, Megan, and the entire staff at the Aberdeen are so fantastic! Lisa was our planner and she made the entire process so easy and manageable for us. Lisa is so incredibly kind, knowledgeable, professional, and she has a wonderful sense of humor! Wedding planning can be very stressful but Lisa put our worries at ease from our first meeting. She is so organized, detailed, responsive and answered any question we had. The Aberdeen truly is a one stop shop – they printed our invitations and menus for us, provided the suits and shoes for the groom, groomsmen, ring bearers, and bride’s father, plus day of coordination. They offer so many options for centerpieces, décor, and give you lots of ideas to make your wedding exactly how you want it! The facilities are beautiful and so well-maintained. The food is delicious, the service is excellent, and everyone is so nice! Everything on the day of our wedding went so smoothly thanks to the Aberdeen staff, we were so happy with how everything turned out. I felt like I didn't have to worry because we were in such good hands! We could not be happier with the Aberdeen and Lisa! We HIGHLY recommend the Aberdeen for your wedding!

Aberdeen Manor was nothing but the best all around. With having a wedding in the middle of a pandemic where plans can change at the flip of a switch they made my fairytale wedding still come true. With the parameters we had to follow they still went above and beyond to make the day happen. I can’t even put into words how wonderful not only my wedding coordinator, Lisa, was but the owners were equally amazing with making sure everything went smooth. The communication between everyone with me was phenomenal. Responses were always thorough and fast. I was never sitting around waiting for an answer and I had a lot of questions. I cannot say enough good things about my experience with all the details that Aberdeen handles it made wedding planning a breeze and enjoyable.

We could not be happier with Aberdeen Manor!! My husband and I got married there on August 15, 2020. They were amazing to work with!! Our coordinator, Kelsea, was the BEST!!!! From the start, she was so great, helpful, fun, energetic, and so so kind!! After touring Aberdeen, we knew we needed to have our wedding there not only because we loved the venue, but we loved Kelsea! We got married in the chapel and had our reception in the ballroom. They helped make it exactly how we envisioned our big day to be!! We talk about our wedding with our friends and family every single day, and wish we could relive our perfect day. It truly was the greatest most beautiful day, thanks to Aberdeen Manor! We are so grateful and wouldn’t have wanted our wedding anywhere else! It was truly perfect.

Everything exceeded my expectations and could not have asked for better staff, food, drinks, and atmosphere.

We had an AMAZING experience at Aberdeen. They were so accommodating through the entire process from start to finish. We loved working with Kelsea and appreciated all the time and energy she spent making sure our day was perfect! On the day of, Megan had everything even more perfect than we could have ever imagined. I would recommend Aberdeen to anyone!!

This venue is amazing. Megan was our wedding planner, she met with about 4 different times to cover details surrounding the wedding and she was available via email or phone if there were questions. Picking the food was a pleasure, there was an invitation for a tasting with plenty of options to select. On wedding day, the staff was amazing. We arrived early for pictures and Megan welcomes all those involved, the servers introduced themselves at dinner. Everyone was able to relax due to the Aberdeen team working well together. Aberdeen Manor is a venue to consider.

I can’t say enough good things about Aberdeen. We had Megan as our coordinator and from the moment we met her I knew we were in good hands. She was super responsive and helpful throughout our planning process. Even on the day of the wedding she was on the floor helping my bridesmaid bustle my dress. Food was delicious and decor was amazing. Our wedding dreams truly became a reality at Aberdeen, there isn’t one thing we would do differently!!

We loved everything about Aberdeen Manor! The best part is how easy they make everything. The planner assigned to us, Lisa, was simply amazing. She was so detailed and so helpful! So many brides are beyond stressed planning their weddings, but I did not feel that way... I believe this is because of how awesome Lisa was, along with the rest of the staff at Aberdeen. It is such a beautiful venue with the best staff!

Truth be told the Aberdeen was not our original choice. Our venue burned down shortly before our wedding. Their slogan is something like "we only need one chance" and let me tell you that is true. We gave them a chance and it was the best thing that we ever did. I think that the Aberdeen turned out to be better than our original venue. Here's why you should give them a chance: -it's extremely clean. They've been in business for years and years but the place looks IMMACULATE. You have to see it to understand what I mean. -price. Their prices are transparent and fair. We were given ballpark invoices along the way and weren't hit with any secret fees at the end. -it's family owned. How cute is that?? From the bar tenders to the chef and everyone in between. Many of the employees have worked there for like 20 years which tells you that the place is quality. -indoor/outdoor space. We had our ceremony outside because the weather was kind but in the event of heat or rain they allow you to use their beautiful chapel. In addition the guests had access to the garden/patio during the reception. -the food. We booked the place without having tasted it because it was so last minute. We loved it and so did our guests. -setup/teardown is included! It is one less thing that you have to worry about and pay for. -flexibility. You have 1000's of different options. You can decorate the ballroom as you wish and include or take out what you want and don't want (lighting, centerpieces, decorations, etc.) -Kelsea. You don't know her yet but you should. She was an amazing wedding coordinator and we can't say enough good things about her. Lisa and Megan and several others helped us out as well. They are all great! If you haven't booked your venue yet just go see the place and talk to them.

I cannot speak highly enough about Megan and her team at Aberdeen Manor. Not only did she make the whole wedding planning process seamless, but she was kind, supportive, and creative. Megan is very knowledgeable with event planning and has great relationships with vendors. She asks the questions you don't think to ask and is incredibly organized and resourceful. I especially appreciated her calming presence throughout the whole process. The day of the wedding, I was stress-free because I knew Megan was behind the scenes working it all out for me. I would not hesitate to recommend Aberdeen Manor to future couples, as they exceeded our expectations in every way possible.

ABERDEEN was perfect me and my husband's wedding. Lisa was such a joy to work with. From day one we were comforted knowing that everything would be taken care of. Chuck went out of his way to customize the altar with drapes and lighting for me as heaven was a part of our wedding theme. The decor, food, hospitality, everything was perfect. We truly had a wedding production with all of our special effects and Aberdeen throwing in some snow and extra ceiling decor. Everything was perfect. It is a one stop shop and DEFINITELY WORTH THE EXTRA MONEY. Definitely include all that's free and included on your day. We got married 11/11/18. We took pics in the garden and around the chapel. I gave details about my grandmother's angel table remembering her and Lisa and the Aberdeen staff set up her table in both our ceremony and reception. I didn't have to worry about anything. We got the grooms' tuxedos from Aberdeen, so much easier. They did our place cards. The food was great. I'd recommend the steak and the cranberry crusted chicken. We opted for cranberry on the side. I could not have imagined getting married anywhere else in Indiana. My husband and I live in Chicago and wedding prices are just astronomical. Our family lives in Indiana and Aberdeen was perfect. We got our chapel ceremony and reception hall...the only wedding there. I wanted it all in one place with 2 different atmospheres. It was perfect. We had 250 guests. The only thing I would change is extending our reception by 1hour. Our guests had so much fun and before we knew it, the party was over. #EleventhHeaven #StevieJDay was perfect thanks to Aberdeen and Lisa. We love you

I’m really glad my husband and I chose to go with Aberdeen for our wedding and reception! Everything was much better than we could’ve imagined for our special day! My coordinator was Megan and she was always there on days I needed to ask those random questions. Everyone there just seems so nice. If you happen to go with Aberdeen, I would just say don’t stress because they will make sure everything is perfect for you.

We absolutely enjoyed every moment of our day and I'm so happy we chose Aberdeen! I'm a simple person so when I gave Lisa our decor and said, "Do what you think looks best!", she did exactly that. Our guests loved the bar package and the bartender was phenomenal!! Aberdeen was aware of our budget limitations and went above and beyond to make sure we were getting the wedding of our dreams that stayed within our budget. There was no way we could have as beautiful a wedding at any other location for the same amount of money. We looked at other venues that were the same price but we would've lost a lot in terms of how gorgeous it was. If you are willing to get married in the "off-season" they can make it affordable for the couple looking to save a few bucks. And in the end I wouldn't change a thing about getting married in November!! The scenery for our pictures was GORGEOUS!! We started planning in September and got married in November. So in 2 months we were able to get it all done and Aberdeen accommodated us along the way. As the bride, I didn't have to worry about a single thing on game day. Lisa made sure our guests were comfortable and the ceremony ran smooth. The staff set up our decor, moved it from ceremony to reception and our bridal party and guests could just focus on having a good time. Thank you for helping us achieve a wonderful day on a tight budget. The fact that they had a live stream was a bonus!!

I am so glad I chose Aberdeen for our wedding ceremony and reception. Both were set up absolutely beautifully. The people there really do care about you as a person. They make sure everything is perfect and the way you vision it and make things right ASAP if they don’t. They even went above and beyond what my vision was and made it look absolutely beautiful. Gina was our coordinator and she went absolutely above and beyond! She was new there and was an absolute expert. We asked a lot of her to make our day perfect and she did every single thing without question. She really did become a friend. Trey was amazing! He was in the ballroom before the ceremony and I went in just to look at everything and soak in all the beauty. He was so generous and kind. He also walked me over to the chapel for our ceremony. It had just rained, so a couple of my bridesmaids were ready to hold up my train across the lot. But, one of the servers came and held my train across the chapel. It was absolutely surprising and generous. The ceremony went great! There was a wedding the day before mine, so they gave me the option of having the backdrop for no additional cost. I appreciated this so much because this gave a great touch. The sound system was great in the ceremony and everything went so smoothly. I did feel a little pressed for time for pictures in between the ceremony and reception because it was highly suggest or required to have cocktail hour right away. We could have taken pictures before, but I had a lot of bridesmaids so the entire morning was booked with hair and make up, and my husband didn’t want a first look. The ceremony was absolutely STUNNING! The coordinator will have you bring your decorations before the wedding and they will decorate for you; or at least I did since there was a wedding before mine. I had so many decorations and there were a lot left over. All the workers went out of their way to use them in other places in the manor and made it absolutely beautiful! My husband surprised me before dinner. We had a semi-Disney themed wedding...we are both teachers and big kids inside. He set up a little choreographed start to our dinner. The servers did a little skit to the song “Be Our Guest.” It was simple, and just an elegant touch. I absolutely loved it!! It was one of my favorite parts of the night. I believe thanks goes to Payton and Trey for setting that up! :) The food was DELICIOUS! We still have comments a week after our wedding on how good the food was. And to be honest, we couldn’t pick a potato so we asked our coordinator Gina for a suggestion. She said the regular Aberdeen mashed potatoes were popular and I am so glad we went with that. The coordinators are so knowledgeable there. The only thing we had a little trouble with was decorations. There was little decoration included, and depending on what you want, it can add up pretty quick. All I asked for was a backdrop behind the head table. The place STILL looked absolutely stunning with only that and the decoration included so don’t feel like you have to spend too much on added things. This experience has wanted me to possibly pursue being a wedding planner. They made he entire experience so much fun and enjoyable! They are so organized and give a checklist so you don’t forget important things. I wouldn’t have wanted my wedding anywhere else and definitely suggest Aberdeen to any bride if you want the perfect wedding! You won’t regret it!

We could not have been more thrilled with our wedding reception at Aberdeen Manor. We hosted an off-site ceremony, with reception following at Aberdeen. Every single detail was executed beyond our expectations. There was not a single items overlooked. Walking into the reception space, we had a true "wow" moment. Our guests raved about the venue and food. The staff on site for our wedding were professional and friendly to us and our guests. We would recommend Aberdeen to anyone. Thank you for making our wedding night amazing - we will be replaying it in our minds for years to come!

I loved having our wedding at Aberdeen Manor and would highly recommend them to anyone planning a wedding! They are really good at what they do and everything about our wedding was well ran and perfect. Our wedding coordinator, Lisa did a fantastic job! All of the extra little touches such as the wedding photo book at the end of the night, the snow machine for our first dance, being able to have our ceremony and reception in the same place, and all of the customization options for the venue decorations was so fun and beautiful. Our guests and we both loved the food as well!

Our only daughter was recently married and both the ceremony and reception took place at the Aberdeen. The experience was exceptional. Megan is the quintessential wedding coordinator with a calmness, professionalism, and patience that expels all anxiety and results in a seamless, beautiful day from start to finish. The staff and service throughout the reception were top-notch and lacked for nothing. Of particular note was the provision of live-stream video available for our family and friends who live out of the country. This gave them the opportunity to share the entire event with us. We have only praise for this venue.

We loved this venue! It was so easy to plan and our planner Megan was wonderful to work with! Everything was stunning and we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect venue!

I cannot say enough good things about Aberdeen. As soon as we went on a tour, I knew this is where I had to have our reception. The place is beautiful, the food is excellent and the staff is phenomenal. Lauren and Megan are wonderful to work with. They were quick with responses to my questions and helped make my dream wedding a reality.

I can’t even begin to describe how grateful we are to Aberdeen Manor. Our wedding day was an absolute dream come true. From the moment we walked into Aberdeen to see if it was our future wedding venue, we knew right away it was the place our forever would start. Megan our coordinator, made us so comfortable from the beginning. I had complete trust in her and the Aberdeen team. They made our planning experience so easy and stress free. Their recommended vendors were all AMAZING. They too made our planning so easy. Everyone complimented me as we were getting ready for the day how calm I was. I knew everything was taken care of, and I had complete trust in Aberdeen. Everything was absolutely PERFECT. The garden was absolutely breathtaking. The flowers from Kristinalynn Floral were gorgeous. The ballroom was astonishing. From the lights, to the hanging cake stand everything was beautiful. They truly take pride in their work and it shows. Our DJ Mike from Trans Audio, kept the dance floor going all night long. Megan our coordinator, checked on myself, my husband, and our families constantly throughout the night. The bartenders and servers were fantastic as well. I heard so many compliments about Carol. Aberdeen Staff all truly care about your day being magical. They do this because they love making your day the best. It was the best day of my life, and I wouldn’t change an absolute thing. Thank you is not enough Megan and Aberdeen staff. We love you from the bottom of our hearts. Love, Cassie and Dan

We had our wedding at the Aberdeen chapel. It was pretty and accommodated all of our guests which earns it the three stars, but we had a few complaints as to how it was run. First, we were switched between three different wedding coordinators while we were working with Aberdeen. Then, we showed up for our pre-scheduled tour and none of the coordinators were free to do it... even though they scheduled it ahead of time with us. Luckily, another worker was there and took us around the grounds. We were told that we had to be on time for our 5:00 rehearsal because it would end promptly at 6, but then the coordinator was running late! She still kicked us out at 7, despite the fact that she was running about 15 minutes late and the chapel was locked when we arrived, with our wedding party waiting outside. On top of that, on the wedding day we started on time but were actually kicked out before we could do a receiving line because there was another wedding arriving immediately after ours. For people who stress punctuality enough to kick us off the premises, they were sure sloppy with our tour and rehearsal, so I can't believe they were so strict on our actual wedding day. Not flexible at all unless it suits them.

My wedding was better than I had imagined. Megan was my planner and she took care of everything. I got rave reviews on the food and the service from all of my guests - they even cooked a new meal for a guest that I did not know was allergic to the one I they had chosen! The drinks were strong, the decorations were perfect. I work a lot, and this place had all the decorations I needed, set them up and took them down for me. Aberdeen is great!

Not only was the staff amazing, especially my coordinator Lauren, but the venue was beautiful and very accommodating. Our wedding day was perfect, the food was fabulous, the decor was just how I imagined. The best part at the end of the night was Lauren handing me a booklet of pictures from the ceremony and reception. It was great to look at that the next day and a wonderful surprise I wasn't expecting. I highly recommend having your wedding and reception at Aberdeen Manor!!!

This was the perfect venue for my husband and I! We were scared about the price, but honestly, it was way cheaper to do everything at one place, instead of booking from multiple different people. Our night was perfect. They set up everything for us, and I didn't have to worry about a thing, which helped me by being able to make all my bouquets and boutonnieres to save money. I didn't feel stressed at all doing this the day of my rehearsal! They took care of everything. Megan was my wedding planner and she always emailed me with any concerns, and didn't mind my constant emails to her with random questions. Highly recommend to anyone looking to get married here! You won't be disappointed!

I loved having my wedding at Aberdeen Manor! Lisa was my coordinator and she was so sweet. She helped me work through all the details and was making sure everything ran smoothly on my special day! Highly recommend Aberdeen!!

I held my daughter's bridal shower at Aberdeen. Words cannot express how perfect everything was. During the planning for the shower, which also included finding a wedding venue, we actually became frustrated because it seemed as though every idea we had was "shot down" and all we seemed to hear was "No, we cannot do that". As anyone who is planning a wedding knows, this causes immense stress on the bride and all those involved in planning (especially mother of the bride). Aberdeen was totally different. Not only did we not hear "no" but we heard the statement " we will do whatever you want us to do" . The staff is absolutely phenomenal. We tried to book the reception at Aberdeen, but the date was taken. Luckily, we were able to book her ceremony at Aberdeen Chapel, so we can still enjoy the benefits that the staff and management offers. The shower was absolutely perfect in every single way, food was fabulous, and complements were given all day long. I would very very highly recommend Aberdeen for all your shower and wedding needs. They are nothing short of fabulous, and five stars are not enough!!

We absolutely LOVED our experience at Aberdeen. The staff were extremely helpful and patient with all of our questions and requests. Our wedding turned out so perfect, better than I could have ever imagined. Every detail we had planned out in the past year with Megan came together so well, and I definitely think the staff at Aberdeen went above and beyond. My bridal party said multiple times how they felt the day was so relaxing compared to other weddings they have been in. The staff at Aberdeen took care of all of the set up and running the show on our special day. I definitely felt pampered! Thanks again for giving us our perfect wedding!

Aberdeen was the most amazing venue for our big day. From the minute we booked, our planner Megan was helpful and organized. Everything was done perfect and thanks to them, we had our dream wedding! We got rave reviews on the service, food, decorations and atmosphere! You can't go wrong with choosing this venue.

We cannot say enough about Aberdeen Manor! Lauren was amazing and I couldn't have asked for anything more, The day was perfect and beautiful. She helped me with everything and we were so pleased!!

Our experience at Aberdeen was memorable. Megan and her entire team made us feel welcome, and we were assisted every step of the way in planning our wedding day to be exactly what we envisioned. Megan was responsive to emails and phone calls, and answered the plethora of questions we continually threw at her, all with a calmness and grace that was in line with what Aberdeen promotes. We never felt rushed to make decisions or be pressured into making an uncomfortable choice in terms of decorations or food. The hall was decorated beautifully for our reception, and the ceremony - transitioned to the chapel in lieu of the garden area due to the rain - went smoothly. The bistro filet, cranberry chicken, prosciutto wrapped asparagus, and mac & cheese bites were delicious. The smallest details were taken care of by the team, and we were able to enjoy our day... which is really what it's all about. Thank you Aberdeen :)

Aberdeen Manor was the PERFECT venue. What I liked best is that it is essentially a one stop shop. Our wedding coordinator (Lauren) took care of all of the details and made the whole wedding planning process so so easy. All of the staff was extremely professional and helpful. Our coordinator was great about staying in touch and responding quickly to any questions I had. We were able to have our wedding invitations done in their shop and they turned out great! They also offer tuxedo rentals, place card printing, they have items available for centerpieces, card boxes, cake stands, specialty linens, flower girl baskets, jewelry, garters.. everything! We had our ceremony in the chapel and it was beautiful. Since it was Christmas, they had their holiday decor up in the chapel and the ballroom and it really is a nice touch. The reception was also perfect. Their lighting options and decor options are beautiful. You definitely get what you pay for and I do not regret any of the decor or lighting options I added to my package. Our coordinator took care of all of the details the night of and it went so smoothly. The service staff was wonderful and I have had many family/friends compliment how well the service was. I definitely recommend this venue to anyone getting married!

My wedding was everything I ever wanted and more. From the very first time I toured the facility I fell in love! The staff went above and beyond to do everything to make my day special! One might think that you are treated like just another number considering the amount of weddings Aberdeen has but this is the farthest thing from the truth. Every staff member treated me like I was their only bride. I worked with Lisa, Lauren, and Megan and they were all amazing! From the wait staff to the bartenders to the chef everyone was wonderful. My guests were blown away by the food, decor, and how well everything flowed perfectly! I truly wouldn't change one thing and would do it all over again without hesitation. Aberdeen is one amazing place. Thank you for the beautiful memories!

We had an outdoor ceremony and reception at Aberdeen Manor on June 11, 2016. It was absolutely beautiful! We worked with Lauren and Trey who both made our day perfect. They work with you on every last detail. We received so many compliments on our wedding day ranging from the food to the decor. We did appetizers before dinner, as well as the chicken bruschetta or prime rib for dinner. All of the food tasted great! The outdoor ceremony area was beautiful, as well as our reception decor. We loved our hanging cake table and the crystals hanging from the ceiling! Aberdeen is great at working with all of our various vendors as well. Everyone we worked with at Aberdeen Manor was a pleasure to work with and made our day absolutely perfect!

Aberdeen is your one stop venue. Seriously, our wedding was so beautiful, and the food was delicious. All of our guests rave about our wedding and tell us how amazing it was. I haven't heard one complaint. Megan and her team really worked hard for us and it paid off. I had my dream wedding and I didn't have to break the bank. The value Aberdeen offers couples is incredible. No need to shop around, come to Aberdeen and book.

Our experience with Aberdeen was exceptional! We worked with Lauren, and she was absolutely attentive and involved through the entire process. The staff is superb, the venue is gorgeous, and every last detail made it our dream wedding! Could not have asked for a better experience. We highly recommend Aberdeen Manor if you truly want a personal, beautiful, and unforgettable event!

I know this is SEVERAL months late but I did want to take the time to thank the AMAZING people at Aberdeen and rave about the venue a little bit. My husband and I were married in October and chose Aberdeen as the place it will all go down. Not only was the venue BEAUTIFUL, we loved how the chapel and reception hall were literally across the street from each other so that cocktail hour could start minutes after the ceremony ended. I can't tell you how many people came up to Craig and I after the wedding and commented on how elegant and gorgeous everything was. I also had people telling us that the staff at Aberdeen were so attentive and helpful. It rained a tad on our wedding day (good luck right??) but the guests stated that the staff walked with them and held umbrellas over their heads while they walked from the chapel to the reception hall. They also helped me and did the same, so there weren't any makeup/hair disasters (phew!). Speaking of the staff, I want to single one person out who helped us in SO many ways; Megan. Megan was our wedding coordinator and the most amazing person ever I can't literally say enough about her. Starting from the first meeting we had with her, I knew that she had everything under control. Megan was so organized and detailed it actually calmed me down (I'm a tad control-freakish). I had so many weird questions that came up that I asked Megan and she responded to my emails almost instantly. She really helped take a lot of pressure off of the planning in the beginning. On rehearsal day, our minister actually showed up almost an hour late. Megan didn't miss a beat, she walked everyone through the rehearsal herself and stood in the place of the minister so that everyone knew where they were going (crisis averted!). On wedding day, Every time we needed something Megan was RIGHT there to help. My sister was having trouble bustling my dress and we were fighting with it for a while before the rehearsal started. Megan happened to come into the chapel at that exact time and helped bustle the dress! Literally nothing (that I can point to) went wrong on wedding day and I truly believe it is because the Aberdeen staff is SO well educated and planned in this scene that they know exactly what to do. Guests even told me how great the bartenders were and how nice everything flowed together. I can't say enough about Aberdeen Manor. I am so happy and grateful that Craig & I chose this as our wedding venue. The food, staff, hall, chapel were all top notch. Aberdeen made the greatest day of our lives even better than we could have imagined. Thank you thank you thank you all, Brittany & Craig Kouris

My Husband and I just got married at Aberdeen two weeks ago and everything was absolutely amazing! We had our ceremony in the garden and then our reception in the ballroom. Everything went so smoothly thanks to our wonderful wedding coordinator! Everything from the decor to the food was incredible. Aberdeen helped give us an incredible day we will never forget!

I can not possibly say enough wonderful things about Aberdeen Manor or the genuine people they have working there!! They took my vision and made my dream come true! My guests all had a fantastic time and raved about the food, the ambiance and every little detail of my wedding. Many family and friends told both my husband And I that it was by far the best wedding they he ever attended. I would recommend Aberdeen Manor to anyone getting married.

The entire staff at Aberdeen was fantastic. My daughter had a vision of the perfect wedding and they surpassed all of our expectations. They took care of everything down to the very last detail. We had the outdoor ceremony, cocktail reception and wedding all at the venue and not once did I or the mother of the bride have to worry about anything. Everything was in its place, complete professionalism throughout and everything was done on time. The food was fantastic and the comments from the guests were raving on what a perfect night it was. Thank you for a truly magical night

Megan and the rest of the Aberdeen crew made our wedding day absolutely perfect! They were able to accommodate all of my requests and more! The venue is beautiful and well maintained. Our food was hot and delicious. We couldn't have asked for anything better! Thank you Aberdeen team!

Aberdeen Manor is absolutely amazing! They helped me throughout the entire planning process. They make it so easy to have a wedding! Everyone always says something will go wrong on your wedding day...at Aberdeen they prove that those people are liars. My wedding day was beyond perfect. My guests are still raving about how wonderful the staff is and how beautiful the ballroom was. I highly recommend getting married here.

I was married at Aberdeen on 8/1/15. I had my wedding & reception there. I cannot begin to say enough good things about this venue. Everyone there that I interacted with was wonderful, but Lauren was my wedding coordinator & she was absolutely amazing! She was supportive throughout the entire process. Lauren and the rest of the Aberdeen staff made sure that our day went off without a hitch. Also, the food was amazing, several of my guests commented and said how good it was. You cannot go wrong having your wedding at Aberdeen.

We had a wonderful event at Aberdeen! We used the gardens for the wedding ceremony and the ballroom for the reception! The event was seemless and we were very well cared for by the Aberdeen Staff. The food was excellent and the service was prompt and efficient. Our guests raved about every detail! Denna and her staff are the best! I would highly recommend this venue for a memorable and stree-free wedding!

I have heard great things about Aberdeen, so when I was invited to a wedding there I was very excited! However, my experience as a guest was horrible. The chapel was stuffy and hot, the food was cold when they finally got to our table, and the bartender seemed less than pleased to get us our drinks. On top of that, I found the venue to be very outdated. Pretty disappointed with my experience at Aberdeen.

Every detail and aspect of Aberdeen was perfect. Talk about a venue that goes way above and beyond for their brides. I would plan a million weddings with them.

Thank you to the fabulous wedding/reception thrown at Aberdeen Manor! The staff was so friendly to work with from day 1. They went above and beyond with suggestions ranging from décor to vendors. All of our vendors were extremely pleasant and fun to work with. I would definitely recommend having your wedding or function at Aberdeen Manor. Thank you for making our day even more special. Alexis (bride)

The service was great food was beautifully plated and tasted amazing!!! It was worth every penny we spent! Icoudlt not have had a better wedding anywhere else!!!

I just got married at Aberdeen Manor and had the best wedding imaginable. We had our ceremony in the garden and our reception in their beautiful hall. Everything was perfect! Denna helped us every step of the way and is a perfectionist in her work. She is so knowledgeable and experienced in every area of wedding planning. I was very pleased from the food to the decor. Every last detail was spot on. All of our guests were raving about Aberdeen and how beautiful our wedding was. Aberdeen helped to give us our dream wedding and we could not be any more pleased. I highly recommend Aberdeen Manor and Denna. They are the best of the best!

We had our ceremony and reception at Aberdeen. It was AMAZING. Megan was our wedding planner and she was absolutely fabulous. She was quick to answer all of my questions while planning and she made sure the entire event ran smoothly! The venue was gorgeous and the service was great! We couldn't have been happier!

This venue was absolutely beautiful! We had the option to choose to have our wedding in the chapel or in the garden and could make our final decision the morning of the ceremony! The wedding consultant service that is included with booking ensures that you won't miss a single important detail. They have many different decoration and centerpiece options to choose from. The food was delicious. They even take care of the decorating and tear-down after the event so you can focus on the important matters of the day. I highly recommend this is a location to have both your wedding and ceremony!

Having our reception at the Aberdeen Manor was a great choice. The venue was beautiful, the food was excellent, and every single member of the staff, from the owner to the servers were top notch. They were flexible with every detail we wanted to make our own and took responsibility for coordinating everything on the day of the wedding so that I had to worry about nothing! I would recommend them to anyone!!! I am so grateful for everything they did to make our wedding absolutely amazing.

If anyone knows me they know I'm very particular about the way things look and how an event flows so it wasn't easy to let someone else take the reigns. But I am happy to say I was nothing but pleased with everything at Aberdeen from beginning to end. Denna and the staff were always friendly and very helpful. I LOVE Denna so much I can't say it enough what an awesome person she is! She really knows her stuff down to every small detail! I ran into a few problems finding the right people to do all the other stuff like flowers, alteration etc. But Denna was always there to guide me trough it all. They also have a list of reputable vendors that will suit anyone's needs and the staff at Aberdeen will never steer you in the wrong direction. They help make your dream wedding into a reality. When they say one chance is all they need their not lying its the truth. If your reading this I'm sure your looking for a venue to have your perfect wedding at and I hope that my review helps you realize that this is the place and the cost is comparable to other places but the difference is Aberdeen is worth every penny. Thank you staff at Aberdeen and Denna for making this experience so amazing and for making me feel like a part of a family not just another face. Its been a month since our wedding and people are still talking about how beautiful everything was and how yummy the food was. And I'm here wishing I could live it over and over again. I will remember it forever.

I got married at Aberdeen Manor on September 20th 2013 and could not have been happier with my wedding. If you're looking for a venue that is a one stop shop for your wedding you have found it. The staff is amazing and extremely helpful. I did not have to lift a finger on my wedding day. If I had forgotten something they had it close by. You can create any wedding you desire. If you're on a budget or sky's the limit you can have your wedding here. I can't believe I almost didn't check out this venue and I am so happy I chose to have my wedding here. Everyone had a blast at my wedding and everyone could not stop complimenting on how beautiful the venue was from the amazing garden to the amazing reception hall. You should definitely consider having your wedding at Aberdeen, you will not be disappointed!

If you live in the Northwest Indiana area and are looking for a vendor for your wedding, Aberdeen Manor should be on your list of places to check out! They absolutely gave us the wedding of our dreams! The owners are amazing and went above and beyond anything we could have ever expected! The owners and husband-wife team, Denna and Jim, make you feel like you are really part of their family. They are willing to work with any budget, small or large. Denna is a Wedding Planner and is full of surprisingly wonderful ideas! She will make sure that your wedding celebration includes all the personality of the bride and groom. Everything was taken care of by the wonderful staff at Aberdeen. I did not stress out throughout the entire process, because I knew Denna was on top of it! The evening of our wedding went off without a hitch! We expected SOMETHING to go wrong, but nothing did! The evening flowed from one stage into the next! Over a month later, our family and friends are still talking about how wonderful the evening was and how much fun they had that night! We wanted a celebration with our loved ones and we certainly got one! With my husband having family all over the place (Arizona to Texas to Florida and even Japan), we wanted to ensure that everyone enjoyed their time together. It was not just a wedding, but it was a family reunion of sorts! The entire weekend was a big celebration! Though we personally had no particular attachment to Valparaiso (I’m from Crown Point and my husband is from Tinley Park, IL), we couldn’t have found a more fitting location! If we could do it over again, I wouldn't even hesitate to get married and have the reception at Aberdeen Manor. Also, if you are looking for a venue with an outdoor setting for a wedding, the garden area is beyond beautiful! My husband, Justin, and I are very outdoorsy people and it was so fitting to be able to get married outside! We wanted a location that offered an outdoor area as well as a hall for the reception so that guests didn’t have to drive to a second spot after the wedding. We found exactly what we wanted and loved every minute of our celebration! We really enjoyed the evening because of all the hard work and time that the Aberdeen family put into making our night one to remember! Denna, Jim, Trey, Megan, Lisa, Carol, and all the other lovely people of Aberdeen, provided us with memories that we will forever cherish! We are very pleased and could not recommend the services at Aberdeen more! Thank you so much for making everything so stress-free and easy going! JF 06.14.2013

I will never be able to stop saying enough wonderful things about Aberdeen Manor. I had my wedding and reception there and from the day I chose them as my venue until the very last minute before we left the night of my wedding, they were right there helping me along the way to make sure my wedding was everything I wanted. Denna, Megan, and Trey and the rest of staff do an amazing job! I also got my invitations from their shop "Affairs" and they were better than I ever could have imagined. You won't be disappointed with anything. Ask any questions you want and they are right there to guide you. The food is delicious. The staff is amazing. The garden, chapel, and ballroom are gorgeous and they are always finding new ways to make it even better. I definitely recommend choosing them over anyone else.

Organized, beautiful, and a terrific place to get married. My wedding was perfect.

I had a wonderful wedding at Aberdeen Manor and would refer them to any bride. We had a July 6, 2013 wedding and it was beautiful. I feel like Aberdeen does offer a lot for the price, however I would recommend considering a Friday wedding or fall wedding if you are planning on having under 200 guests because of the minimum that you are required to meet. I had 130guests and found it hard to meet the 8000 minimum on food and drink. A wedding out of season or not on a Saturday would require a much smaller minimum to meet, but this was a planning mistake on my part, and not soemthing at the fault of Aberdeen. The food was amazing, and the decoration were beautiful I did like how I could bring in my own decoration and have the wedding coordinators decorate everything to my liking. All of the workers were very professional and friendly, and made sure that everyone was happy. The only item that was a bit upsetting was the time that we were allowed to take pictures. We were only allowed one hour before the ceremony, and this is not much time. Also, I felt very rushed for pictures after the ceremony. Pictures were very important to me, so this was a bit upsetting. While I was upset about the time allowed for pictures, I do feel that I had a wonderful wedding day, and in the end would strongly refer anyone to them. The service and quality of everything is wonderful.

We got married outside in the garden area and had our reception inside immediately following the ceremony. I went over all of the details with them and everything that we wanted . . . everything couldn't have been more perfect!!! These people know what they're doing and are VERY good at it!!! We were overly happy with how everything turned out that day and how everything came together!!! AMAZING place for a wedding!!!

Aberdeen Manor was a dream to work with from start to finish! The staff there was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable and helped me turn my vision in to a reality! The hall was intimate and beautiful, and the surrounding gardens are gorgeous-exactly what I was looking for. All of our guests raved about the food. I highly recommend Aberdeen Manor!

We had our Wedding and Reception at Aberdeen, and It was absolutely amazing! From the moment I walked into Aberdeen, over a year before my wedding, I knew I had to have it there. The venue is beautiful, and unlike some places in the area, it is decorated in neutral colors. (Everything is done in shades of Grey within the ballroom, we viewed several places with bold colored walls, which for a wedding venue i think is tacky.) Denna coordinated our entire event, and everything was perfect. She was incredibly organized, and didn't miss a single detail. All of the minor issues we had the day of were non Aberdeen related. Denna walked us through everything, making sure dresses were purchased on time, assuring that I kept consistent in my color choices, and with the overall look I was going for. She was incredibly attentive, and didn't miss a beat. The poor woman had her gallbladder removed two weeks before our wedding, and was still present, and had everything under control that day! I was and still am amazed by her! The hall was set up perfectly when I arrived before the ceremony, it was more than I could ever have hoped for. It literally took my breathe away. The food was delicious, and the staff was beyond amazing! There was no waiting around for them to get things done like I've experienced as a guest at other venues, everything happened exactly as it should have, and they were very friendly and attentive. Aberdeen isn't just a venue, it's an experience. Denna and Jim Fyock (the owners) make you feel like part of the family, and do everything they can to make sure your day is perfect. I couldn't be more thankful to them and the entire Aberdeen staff!

I was married on November 24 2012 and had my reception at Aberdeen. I had such a fantastic experience with them from the moment we signed our contract until midnight on the 24th. They are truly there to help with everything you you need to make your day the best it can be. This venue is a bit more pricey but we had our wedding during the "off season" which saved a lot of money and gave us a lot of good deals. Even if your wedding is not during an off season the service and the quality you receive are worth the extra cost. Ever person I worked with was professional, friendly, and genuinely share in my excitement. Everyone there loves what they do and it shows! I couldn't have been more happy with the way things turned out. I received many compliments from guests in regards to the delicious food, the personable bar tenders, the decor and layout, and the overall quality and beauty of the hall. I recommend this hall to anyone and everyone getting married. You will not regret it!

There is SO much I can say about the Aberdeen. After having been yanked on a leash by the Michigan City, IN venue, The Way, just to have them tell us they couldn't host our wedding date. My Husband and I decided to take a look at the Aberdeen. I was floored. I was so glad we didn’t stay with the other venue. They are nothing compared to the Aberdeen! The Aberdeen didn't have the original date we were looking for, or any Saturday's open (Bummer) but we decided to pick one in their 'off' season dates, as well as a Friday date. Picking one in their off season dates meant there was a discount off of their rental fee and even a little more of a discount for it being a Friday! SWEET! When you choose to have your event at the Aberdeen, you get the Aberdeen. This means you get full range of their grounds and staff for your event, even their on site Chapel. You even get to use any of their select center pieces for FREE! They have several different add ons you can utilize as well. We chose to do uplighting around the room, as well as the crystal curtan behind the head table. You really can make it your own. They go through all the details with you when you sit down. You can even meet with them however many times you want to, or email. They make sure that when your big day arrives, that everything is perfect and stress free. They even have a snow machine to make it snow for your first dance, which was also included only for the first dance. If you wanted to use it any other time, it's an additional fee. We used that for our first dance, and our pictures turned out AMAZING! I'm very big about cleanliness, so when we toured the grounds, I asked to see the kitchen. They were surprised I wanted to see it, but obliged. Let me tell you......That kitchen looked like it was just built! EXTREMLY clean. It was like in a movie where everything sparkled! Ha-ha. They even explained the process they have on delivering the meals. They said that it should take only about 45 minutes to run through all the courses for dinner from start to finish. They really know what they are doing. I can go on and on about what they offer and how they made us feel like family from day 1 all the way to even after the wedding, but it would be much easier for you to just go there and speak with them. They are all wonderful people there, Megan especially. All the work she did while pregnant and even after her baby's birth. She's a Rock star! They are definitely a real gem, and if I had to throw any type of event there again, I would, without a doubt in my mind. R&N 11-2-12

I loved every minute of our recpetion. The staff at Aberdeen truly made our experience magical. The food was amazing and our guests all raved about the night!

I had my ceremony at Aberdeen Chapel. The staff was very helpful and on the day of the wedding our ceremony ran flawlessly! They let us bring in our own decorations and even help us put them up. It was such a great place to have our ceremony, and I love the pictures we were able to take outside with the chapel in the background.

Are you looking for a great place to have your upcoming wedding or reception? Aberdeen Manor in Valparaiso, IN is the best in the area!!! They take care of all of your location details from A to Z, their staff is absolutely wonderful, and they make all the small details count! We were so very pleased with this location for our wedding and reception. And when you book your wedding there, you book the entire property: Access to the Chapel, Ballroom, and Garden. Plus...there are so many great amenities that are included! Thanks Aberdeen for a wonderful wedding venue and experience!

Aberdeen Manor is absolutely the best venue I have ever seen! The staff is so dedicated to making your day the best day of your life. Everything was so beautiful and perfect. They have their own wedding store with everything you could want or need. Their wedding planners are the best! Everyone at our wedding was in awe at the quality beauty and elegance of our venue. Plus the food is fantastic!!!! I recommend them to anyone I know getting married.

Aberdeen was a fantastic place to have our wedding. Awesome food, venue, drinks, and customer service.
