We had both our ceremony and reception at the Brown County Inn on October 19, 2019. The day could not have been more perfect. The staff at the Inn were very helpful in planning our wedding and made the process very easy and simple. We were impressed with the Brown County Inn for a variety of reasons, including the location (Brown County in the fall), the in-house catering (which was delicious), flexibility in choosing our own vendors for things like the cake, DJ, florist, etc., and the friendliness of the staff. It also helps that we had a beautiful fall day and were able to have everything outside like we imagined! Overall, we highly recommend the Brown County Inn for couples looking for a beautiful wedding in Nashville, Indiana. Thanks for everything! ~Anthony and Taylor.

We worked side by side with Mary at brown county inn! She was fabulous. Our wedding was rainy and cold and I had to make last minute decisions but she was right there helping me! I absolutely loved working with her and everything was perfect! Not a single detail was missed.

We coordinated our wedding and reception with Mary. Since we live in Nashville, TN most of our communication was via email & brief phone calls. She was very prompt to provide infor...

mation & offered suggestions. The most devastating thing was there was a waterline break in the banquet room where everything was supposed to take place. Which happened just a few days before. Mary took it upon herself to contact other venues, but through her effective communication & GREAT TEAM they were able to accommodate us in their restaurant. It was everything and more that we were originally wanting for our wedding. My husband & I were beyond blessed for the professionalism & outcome of Brown County Inn. The food was delicious too! It was perfect for a winter wedding because everything was at the same place & walking distance to food & shopping & trails. Thanks for all the memories!

We had our March wedding at the Brown County Inn, and it was a wonderful experience! We held our ceremony outdoors on the Inn's beautiful grounds, and the Inn catered our receptio...

n (about 150 people) in the town hall room. The food (salmon and pork, with carrots, mashed potatoes, and brussels sprouts) was delicious! We were able to reserve a block of rooms, and the majority of our guests stayed at the BCI on the night of our wedding. We hosted a small breakfast before our guests left on Sunday morning. We loved the opportunity to take advantage of all the services we had to offer! Logistically, this made our wedding much easier to plan. The day of our wedding was so much simpler and more enjoyable for us AND our guests because we didn't have to worry about transitioning between places and keeping track of a bunch of stuff! Throughout the planning process, Mary was incredibly responsive, accommodating, and full of helpful thoughts and ideas. The entire staff helped make sure that all of the small details and logistics were in order, which let us relax and enjoy the big day when it finally came. We were able to do more than we anticipated with our budget, especially compared to other venues where we looked before we found the Brown County Inn. The BCI was the perfect location for our wedding. Our guests were able to enjoy the grounds of the Inn and the nearby Brown County State Park, and we enjoyed seeing family and friends throughout the day as we prepared for the wedding. Thank you for a truly memorable wedding weekend!
