Staff was very friendly, and they took care of everything on the day of the wedding. My husband and I showed up, everything was done, the coordinator was super helpful in making sure we had everything we needed. We got food from stumlers catering (partnered with Calumet) and the food was amazing!

This venue went above and beyond our expectations! Everyone that works here is very helpful and always available for any questions you may come up with. The event coordinators are absolutely amazing, always available for questions and made our wedding day such an enjoyable day. If you want to have a wedding where you don’t have to worry about hiring your own outside vendors, this is your place. They take care of everything and they are completely worth it!

We had a great time and would recommend Calumet Club to other couples! Clayton was so professional and so quick to respond to my one million questions for the past year. We love that the Calumet Club is a family operated venue. We loved the bride and groom suites which made for a special experience and great pictures. We had lots of compliments from the food (Stumlers) and DJ (DJ Mahan grouple) which were included in our all-inclusive package. Amber was super knowledgable and helped us tremendously! We loved having our ceremony and reception in one spot too! We only wish our day would have lasted longer...it was a beautiful blur
The only thing I would have done differently was paid to add an extra hour to the bridal suite to allow for more time to setup decorations.

Incredible venue and staff. Magical and incredible photo ops and room designs without even needing a lot of decor. Amber especially made our day so easy going and stress free. We will need to name our first born child after her, because she truly made our wedding experience a DREAM. Wish I could give 20 more stars.

Deciding to go with a venue that was packed with family tradition and hard-work, gave us all the reason to consider the Calumet Club! Their inclusive packages, with so much to offer in them, wouldn't allow us to pass it up! The venue nestled in the main stretch of a quaint little city! Beautiful ballroom and all brick dinning hall! My favorite of course was the stunning bridal suite! The groom suite was glam as well!
Clayton and Amber really took the extra step to make sure we were more then taken care of! Amber made my night as the bride to be, stress free and about as easy going as you can get! They both were amazing to work with!! Would HIGHLY recommend this place for great service, vendor options and packages!

The Calumet Club was the perfect venue! We had rescheduled our wedding and chose the Calumet Club and I am so glad we did! Amber and Clayton made the planning process and day of so smooth! We did the all inclusive package and couldn’t have been happier! Our guests and other vendors were also impressed with the staff and how smooth they made the whole day. Book your wedding with them and you will not regret it.

Our experience in working with the Calumet Club was positive from beginning to end.
The Calumet Club offers so much in a wedding venue that others don't - all inclusive pricing for catering, a day-of wedding coordinator, ceremony & reception, DJ (although we decided to go with a band), access to two incredible "getting ready" rooms for the bridesmaids and groomsmen, the list goes on. Another item worth mentioning is the open bar package pricing - unlike most venues, the Calumet Club had a very reasonable per-guest upcharge for the upgrade. Each of the pros mentioned above were included in the package and handled exclusively by the staff at the Calumet Club. The venue staff prioritize making your big day as stress-free and enjoyable as possible.
All of the items listed above may lead some to think that the Calumet Club is a "value" wedding venue. Sure, the prices are great for the level of service and care they put into your event - but the venue is BEAUTIFUL. Their renovated historic building in downtown New Albany is oozing with character that most local venues lack. The venue is also deceptively large - we had upwards of 270 guests in attendance including the band, venue staff, catering staff, etc.
I would encourage anyone looking to host an event; whether it be a wedding, office Christmas party, reunion, etc. to reach out to the Calumet Club. They're doing remarkable work and not enough people are talking about it! We are certainly pleased with our decision.

They were amazing! They made our wedding so wonderful. Clayton was fun and enjoyable, he was also very helpful and stayed in contact with me up until the rehearsal and always answered all of my questions.

The Calumet Club was the perfect place for our reception! It offered everything we were looking for and more. The bridal suite and grooms room were fantastic. The people there are so easy to work with. Alexis the coordinator was just phenomenal. She is unreal and makes your day so smooth and stress free!

Our original wedding reception venue got cancelled last minute and Clayton and Alexis were able to make our dream day happen in 48 hours! Everything was perfect and we were able to enjoy the night without stressing (which was a huge relief considering we replanned a reception in less than 48 hours). I would recommend them for any wedding receptions and the venue itself is perfect!

During a pandemic, planning a wedding was more stressful than ever. Our original date was set for late March. Due to COVID, we had to make the tuff decision to cancel 10 days before our date. The Calumet Club was nothing but the most professional, easy to work with, and took the reigns in helping us find a new date that worked for us, them, and all our vendors. They made the chaos of uncertainty smooth and less stressful. Finally on our “second wedding” date, the staff took care of everything from decorating and clean up, providing masks and hand sanitizer, and making sure guests were safe from any potential health hazards. We couldn’t have asked for a better day. They took great care of us and highly recommend them for any event you need.

Not only is this venue gorgeous, but the coordinator who works for The Calumet Club, Alexis, was a godsend. She had answers to every one of my questions, was always available to answer them, brought up things I had never thought about, and had suggestions where I needed them. She helped take so much stress off of my shoulders. The bridal suites are stunning, the venue is large and beautiful, and they went above and beyond to make sure Covid precautions were taken. They offer a special package which includes the venue spaces, DJ, and caterer, which also made things so much easier for us. It was so convenient and easy that as part of the package, they had preferred vendors pre-selected, who had already worked with them and were familiar with their process. 10/10 would recommend.

Unfortunately, due to COVID, my original wedding plan was completely ruined but Clayton with The Calumet Club was able to answer all my questions and ultimately get this thing planned within a month!
Alexis, our wedding coordinator with the venue, was so wonderful. She went above and beyond working like a machine to ensure we were happy and satisfied and felt special and taken care of on our wedding day.
I'm so thankful I found this venue last minute and was able to produce a beautiful wedding! Highly recommend :)

Clayton and Alexis were a dream to work with for our rescheduled COVID wedding, which was originally supposed to be at the end of March! They were extremely accommodating and flexible with our rescheduling needs and budget. Alexis made it so we never had to worry about a thing during our reception and was amazing throughout the entire process. Clayton quickly responded to any and all questions we sent about the venue and what we had access to. After a stressful season of planning, it was so nice to find such a great and organized team to make our wedding vision come to life! We would definitely recommend them to any couple looking for a beautiful venue with an outstanding staff to help them on their big day!

This venue was INCREDIBLE. First, the place is absolutely gorgeous, it has getting ready rooms to die for (seriously, I wanted to live there). They have a gorgeous ball room and an area with beautiful exposed brick. They have magical lighting everywhere already set up and included if you want it, they are super accommodating. Alexis, the bridal consultant and venue coordinator is one of the most genuinely kind, hardworking individuals I’ve ever met. She takes the time to get to know you as a person and as a couple so she can give you your perfect wedding. She has a great imagination and will make your vision come true. She was there for us every step of the way, was always accessible and friendly, and made our wedding an absolute dream come true. It was even better than I had imagined, worth every penny we spent, and honestly if this review hasn’t convinced you to book your wedding there, go there and ask them to talk to me because I could go on forever about how perfect our experience there was. Everything was easy and we had no hiccups, everyone was professional and kind, every inch of the venue is so beautiful (we used all the rooms and I have wedding photos to prove how breathtaking it was) and if I could choose again, I’d get married there over and over every time. Do yourself a favor and chose this place. Your wedding will be magical from the venue to the staff to the companies they work with.

We were so thankful for Alexis. She went above and beyond for our day to be perfect, and it was! She arranged a video system for my grandma who was ill, so she could watch our ceremony from the hospital. Unfortunately my grandma did not see it but I tell everyone this story. This is why I strongly recommend the Calumet Club!
We still get told to this day our wedding was one of the best they’ve been to.
Thanks for making our day perfect!

I have attended several weddings here and also have been a part of a wedding party here. All of my experiences at the Calumet Club have been great! When my best friend got married we had access to the bridal suite all day and they were so accommodating to us! And then every other wedding I have attended has been exceptional as well and nothing but a great time!

We attended an event here at the beginning of the year and we were super impressed!! The revenue was stunning and very easy to navigate. We had the chance to tell Alexis (the event coordinator) how much we were enjoying ourselves and she was super friendly, as were all the staff that worked that day. I’m very much looking forward to going back for another friend’s reception this summer!

My wife and I got married at the Calumet Club and it was nothing short of fantastic. The coordinator, Alexis, is amazing and knowledgeable. We used the Club for the Rehearsal Dinner, the Wedding, and the Reception. Not to mention the on-site travel agency, which we used for our Honeymoon! This is truly a one-stop-shop, which during planning a wedding, was HUGE for us.
We utilized the intimacy of the downstairs room for our service and moved everyone upstairs for cocktails, dinner, and dancing. The upstairs ballroom is beautifully decorated with tall ceilings and wrap around balcony. The bar service was excellent and efficient. I would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a venue with people who know how to make your day perfect!

My husband and I held our wedding reception in Bliss Ballroom in October of 2016. We had such a wonderful time throughout the planning process and the big day! We booked the ballroom about a year in advance and there was always a speedy response to our questions. My husbands entire family traveled from the Chicago area and they were very impressed with a beauty and size of the space. We had 230 guests and never once did we feel cramped. Alexis was the best coordinator we could have asked for, she made sure everything ran smoothly and even made our plates for us in the buffet line. We highly recommend the Calumet Club to all of our friends and we will be back for more events in the future!!

The reception hall was spacious and had plenty of room for tables and for dancing. The woman Alexis who put everything together for us did a phenomenal job and made sure everything was perfect.

My fiancee and I toured many different venues in the Louisville and Southern Indiana area before both happily agreeing on the beautiful and historic Calumet Club. If we could go back and do it all over again, we would have saved the extra time spent elsewhere and just wen't straight for the Calumet Club! We could not have been more please with our experience there. Everything was perfect.
Calumet Club took the stress out of wedding planning by providing us with vendor options for all of our needs. While other venues had a limited selection of options, Calumet Club offered everything from budget friendly choices to the extravagant. They even host bridal/wedding shows so you can try out the delicious food from their catering partners, talk to their fun and smooth MCs, and take in the beautiful decorating options.
After all of our choices were made, we eagerly awaited our special day. Once that day came, Calumet Club made everything perfect. Our wedding coordinator, Alexis, reassured us with the energetic confidence of someone who clearly knows what they are doing. My now wife and I only had to worry about having a good time and taking in the moment. Everything else was handled. Calumet Club was even flexible enough to make some literally last minute changes to our reception to make our day perfect. I highly recommend Calumet Club. You couldn't ask for better people or a better venue!

The Calumet club was the most amazing venue for our wedding ceremony and reception! My husband and I loved the articheture of the venue and decided it would be perfect even without decorations. Our own decorations only intensified the beauty of the venue and made it more personalized. It was spacious and clean, and the perfect intimate and romantic atmosphere!
Not only did we love the venue, but we were very very pleased after meeting the amazing individuals who help coordinate the entire event!
Alexis the wedding coordinator was always available when we needed her and was there througout the entire day: before, during and after the ceremony and reception! She assisted us in so many ways and was a true delight to get to know and to work with! I would highly reccomend the Calumet Club to anyone looking for an amazing wedding venue and an awesome wedding coordinator!
