As a wedding photographer, I’ve had the privilege of capturing love stories in some truly beautiful spaces—and while I tend to travel for many weddings, there are a few hidden gems close to home that always catch my eye.
Whether you’re planning a timeless country club wedding or a romantic garden celebration, here are some of my favorite wedding venues in and around Evansville, Indiana. Each one offers something unique, and Ellie and/or I would be thrilled to photograph your day at any of them.
Classic, elegant, and well-manicured—Evansville Country Club offers beautiful views and a polished atmosphere that’s perfect for couples looking for a traditional and elevated venue. The golden hour light here is chef’s kiss.
Just outside of town in Owensboro, The White Chateau is light, airy, and surrounded by nature. It’s the kind of place that feels like a romantic escape with a touch of Southern charm.
This winery venue in Henderson, KY is rustic-luxury at its finest. Think vineyard views, charming cabins, and sunsets that make for the dreamiest portraits.
Historic architecture, sweeping staircases, and an old-world charm—French Lick is a fairytale location for a formal wedding weekend with out-of-town guests.
A true showstopper. The iconic domed atrium and opulent interiors make West Baden feel like a destination wedding without the flight. Ideal for couples who love drama, history, and beauty.
For couples looking for a modern and artsy celebration, the Evansville Museum is a hidden gem. Clean lines, natural light, and a unique setting right along the river.
A smaller, chic venue in Newburgh with an urban edge. 20 West is perfect for intimate weddings with thoughtful details and downtown vibes.
Classic and timeless, Rolling Hills offers plenty of natural light and scenic spots for portraits. It’s a great option for couples who want a traditional feel with modern updates.
