Awarded Best of Zola
I photographed a wedding at the WaConDa Woods & Gardens and I was blown away with every aspect of the venue and how the day unfolded! The getting-ready suite had plenty of room for the girls to get ready, lots of natural light for photos, and even the personal touch of chalk art on the wall. As a photographer, I greatly appreciated the variety of options for photo backdrops around their grounds. The barn where the reception was held was elegant and simple- the perfect backdrop to be decorated to suit your wedding vision! The staff was friendly and helpful all through the day as well. Highly recommend, and I hope to shoot there again soon!

The Club at Indian Creek

5.0

  • Indoor & outdoor

For an elegant, romantic and private atmosphere come to The Club at Indian Creek! From grand affairs of 400 guests to intimate gatherings for 20, you will find the perfect setting at The Club at Indian Creek to be a distinctive and imaginative choice.

We loved everything about this venue! Perfect place if you want both your ceremony (outside looking out on the golf course) then reception inside. The only downfall is there isn't really a place to get ready at the venue. They did block off a bathrooms for us to use but we just got ready at someone's house. Email communication with the coordinator was good. We weren't sure when she was arriving the day of and had some questions so that added a little stress but it all worked out!
