The Grand Hall at Historic Union Station

The Grand Hall at Historic Union Station offers distinctive downtown Indianapolis spaces for weddings and private celebrations. Set within the Crowne Plaza at Historic Union Station, the venue brings together the atmosphere of a landmark railway building and the practical services of a full-service hotel. Its signature Grand Hall features Romanesque Revival details, including arches, columns, a glass barrel ceiling and stained-glass windows, providing a memorable setting for ceremonies, dinners and receptions. The hall can seat up to 400 guests for a dinner and reception.

For a different look, the Illinois Street Ballroom has broad windows overlooking downtown and a more neutral interior. It accommodates seated events for up to 200 guests and has a private area for drinks and mingling. Couples can also ask about ceremony and rehearsal dinner space, guest rooms at group rates and overnight accommodation for the newlyweds.

Wedding arrangements can include an on-site coordinator, a menu tasting, food and drink service, a dance floor, tables, chairs, china, glassware, flatware, linens and napkins. The hotel’s culinary team offers meal choices for receptions, with options such as plated dinners and buffet or chef-attended stations. Event specialists work with couples on the details and schedule, while the hotel setting makes it convenient for guests travelling from out of town. The venue’s historic character, multiple function spaces and event services make it suitable for both intimate gatherings and large-scale wedding celebrations in the centre of Indianapolis.
