- Jesse SchaibleyEvent ManagerJesse doesn’t just manage events — she orchestrates unforgettable experiences, where bold ideas meet flawless execution, and every detail knows its place.
- Christine FosterWedding ManagerAt Cinderwood, we settle for nothing less than excellence, which is why, when it comes to weddings, we trust only Christine. With 13 years of experience, a heart for love stories, and an eye for enchantment, she’s here to turn your wedding dreams into a breathtaking reality. Hosting your wedding at Cinderwood means you’ll have a couple of consultations with Christine herself, ensuring every detail is perfectly aligned and every vendor is in place. And for those seeking the full, white-glove experience, Christine and her team offer a suite of add-on services to handle every detail, so you can sit back, savor the moment, and enjoy the journey to forever.
- Kristen & Jeremy BaynaiOwnerKristen, a proud native of Indianapolis' Southside, is a true Hoosier through and through. She graduated from Southport High School and went on to earn her M.A. from Ball State University. When she's not cheering on the Colts, you'll often find her unwinding with a glass of wine on her front porch. In 2012, Kristen and Jeremy tied the knot in a picturesque ceremony on Siesta Key Beach in Florida. Their journey together has since been blessed with two wonderful elementary-age children. The Baynais share a lifelong passion for organization – Jeremy once even sorted his Halloween candy in a tackle box! This couple has an innate ability to bring order to chaos and a remarkable talent for turning strangers into family.

Beautiful and well-kept venue. Received many complements from my wedding reception guests on the bar, views, and more. Free parking with plenty of space available was a huge plus f...
or us. It was a little frustrating not being able to communicate directly with the venue owners as some of our questions took a lot of back and forth with the wedding coordinator in the middle and some of the venue policies were not told to me correctly the first time. So happy with our choice though and would highly recommend for anyone looking for a stunning space that requires minimal decor of your own!

We loved this venue at first sight and received so many compliments about how beautiful and unique it was. We had a beautiful reception at Cinderwood and overall had a good experie...
nce. The only issue we had with this venue was that we felt like communication was sometimes lacking between the owners, wedding manager, and staff which made things a little bit confusing & hard to plan sometimes. It is a new venue though so hoping that feedback will make it even better for future couples!
