Mavris Arts & Event Center Reviews
Jolene Vincel(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 22-10-2022 We had our wedding at Mavris 10/22/22 and it was an absolute DREAM. The place is absolutely stunning. We had Claire as our planner and she was SO HELPFUL, answering all my non-stop emails all the way up to the day of the wedding and she made the day-of go so smoothly. We got constant comments about how AMAZING the food was - many said the best food they’ve had at a wedding ever. We have absolutely no regrets about picking the Mavris for our wedding, we would do it over and over. It was the best day ever thanks to the beautiful event center itself and all the amazing workers.

My husband and I got married at Mavris on November 4, 2023 and it was a dream (perfect weather, beautiful space, delicious food, great bartenders). Our guests still rave about the food and the event space is amazing! The only thing keeping us from leaving a 5-star review is that unfortunately Mavris has been having a staff turnover problem and this impacted our experience. If we could go back in time, we would still use Mavris however we would hire our own coordinator to be available for the Rehearsal and Day-of. Unfortunately our Venue Coordinator (Taylor) assigned to us was not very attentive to detail. I had to run our rehearsal because she kept providing incorrect information to our parents and bridal party, including the order of the bridal party for the processional despite having it on paper in front of her. She was late and MIA almost the entire day of the wedding. Our wedding did not have a lot of moving parts for her to keep track of so it was astonishing that basic things (like steamers in the getting ready suites) was something she couldn't provide for us despite requesting it in advance. She also kept communicating wrong information to our family and bridal party as well as not setting up everything per our diagrams and documents with the venue. In addition, we still have not received our security deposit back and it has been almost 2 months since our event. (We do have confirmation we were to expect the deposit back/ there were no incidentals from our event). Our coordinator no longer works with Mavris which is great for future weddings, but make sure you have someone ready to advocate for your wants on the day-of to remove a LOT of stress from your day and provide a more seamless experience than what we encountered.

We LOVED the Mavris! They had a change in staff during our planning process and the transition was so smooth. We did it in the Speakeasy basement room, which was perfect for our under 100 guest list. Taylor was great to work with and we are so thrilled with how everything turned out! Many compliments on the space and food. Reviewed on 18-11-2023

The Mavris is an absolutely gorgeous venue! The exposed brick, woodwork, ample space, and phenomenal layout make it perfect for a wedding or most any large function. They have a lot of small touches (getting ready rooms, photos in the elevator, outdoor staircase) that add up to a wonderful space. The in-house catering team is also absolutely incredible! We got so many compliments from our wedding guests on the food both at cocktail hour and for the plated dinners!One downside right now, however, is that the venue seems to be going through a period of turnover in event planning with a lot of new team members. In our 18 months between booking and the wedding, we worked with 3 different team members - each of whom would tell us slightly different, conflicting things about what the venue could and couldn't do; we even had to do our big 3 hour planning meeting twice because of this. Even once we got to our final person to work with, every updated BEO statement that was put together was slightly off and had to be corrected and compared to the pricing in our original signed contract. Also - I had a friend who understood our vision work alongside the day-of coordinator to help set-up. While this is not something Mavris requires, it is something I highly recommend as she was able to advocate for us and fix things the day-of coordinator didn't have correct.Overall, Mavris is absolutely a 5 out of 5 venue and I have absolutely no regrets about having our wedding there. It was the perfect day in an incredible space. That being said, just make sure you're advocating for yourself and have someone in place to advocate for you on the day of the wedding!

Evan Prast(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 06-08-2022 Mavris did a wonderful job for our wedding venue!Olivia, Maddie, and Claire were wonderful and helpful in the planning process. Mavris has a helpful guide of which vendors they have worked with in the past, which was helpful for finding the right person for the job. Their decorum during the day was also impeccable, we truly felt taken care of which gave us the ability to relax. We were worried at first that the venue only allows an in-house caterer for the plated meal, but this worry soon faded when we tried the food from Mavris. Mavris also allowed us to use an outside caterer for the cake and additional desserts, a great accommodation that really solidified our choice.Good atmosphere, amazing food, and helpful and knowledgeable staff!!

The food was a hit from the appetizers to the late night snack. There were a ton of good options and the chef worked with us to make sure we were able to serve exactly what we wanted. I don't want to minimalize these and the many other reasons you should choose this place, but the brightest part about doing our wedding at the Mavris were their coordinators. Working with Olivia made every step of our wedding process easier. She was knowledgeable, kind, and fun. She had answers to questions we didn't even know to ask, made time for inquiring mothers and needy vendors, and made sure that we didn't have to think about anything on our big day.

Erin Chatten(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 12-06-2021 I will continue to recommend the Mavris until the end of time. We hosted our wedding in June 2021 and had booked our date two years in advance. We originally booked the venue after falling in love with it at a previous event and hearing how accommodating the staff was. They did not fail to disappoint. 
Through all of the stress and changes of covid wedding planning, Maddie and the staff kept me well informed and helped with navigating adjustments as our date got closer. They were super accommodating with our food choices and even went out of their way to have our favorite local rum in stock to make our signature drink. I appreciated the way they organized their planning process and meetings where everything progressed in a timely manner that left me feeling less stressed as each day went by leading up to ur event. They were the most transparent venue with pricing and helped navigate costs and savings with some of the upgrades we wanted to apply. Very few venues will help the week of your wedding the way The Mavris does. Maddie and the team coordinated all the micro details with my vendors, setup all of my decor for me, and coordinated/managed the timing of the entire day. The entire reason our day went as smoothly as it did can be attributed to the Mavris team. We had a HOT June day and the staff kept our guests cool, comfortable, and happy. Three months after, we are still receiving compliments on how beautiful the venue was, how delicious the food was, and how helpful the staff was.

They honored my requests to use different sizes of tables for the reception to seat guests only with their household and space out everything. Their food service is well thought out. Dinner plates are served with covers, condiments are in individual servings for each guest, and all employees wear masks and change gloves frequently.

Kristen Cobb(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 14-08-2020 My daughter went through Mavris for her wedding and reception in August 2020. This date was a reschedule from her original date in April 2020 due to COVID-19. Of course there were major headaches with planning around the virus but we overall did feel that Mavris was good to help us through the stress. Since the original date was not allowed to happen as the 10 person limit on all weddings at this time. They were easy to reschedule our date from the original date without penalty. Unfortunately, as her August date approached the COVID counts started to increase. They were treated like a restaurant with 50 % of capacity or 150 people. We were not comfortable with having a large group and many of our guests had backed out as the date approached. We discussed having a smaller group for safety. We were already down on the number of guests that would come and decided to reduce to 62 people. We wanted to limit the number of people and just have close family or friends there. We also wanted more small tables so only families were seated together. They were willing to adjust the guest numbers without trouble and gave us a discount for the reduced numbers. I felt that they were very fair with our family. I also felt that our coordinator, Maddie, was great to work with us and made the day of the wedding run smoothly. The wedding was everything my daughter wanted and can't say enough about how well everything went on the day of the wedding. The wedding and reception set up was just what we wanted. The food was the best I have ever had at a wedding and got lots of compliments from guests. We loved the convenience that everything was in the same place and no outside catering was required. Much less stress. Our only bump in the road was about 2 weeks before the wedding the owners of the facility wanted us to personally sign a liability statement that we were not comfortable with doing. We ultimately agreed to sign the standard liability waiver signed at the door with all our guests and we were fine with that. If this had not occurred they would have 5+ stars. Obvious these are extraordinary circumstances with COVID and it complicated a wedding more than usual. I would definitely recommend them in the future. We were very happy with the wedding outcome, the quality of the facility and our wedding coordinator. My daughter and her husband had the wedding of their dreams! Reviewed on 09-09-2020

Kinga Audi(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 06-09-2019 Most people say that wedding planning is stressful, I'm here to say that with the help of Maddie and the Mavris, I never got stressed throughout the entire process and I was able to enjoy the weekend from beginning to end. The venue is easily the first decision, the most expensive, and the most impact decision you make for your wedding or event. After narrowing it down to two venues we picked the Mavris. I was not 100% sure on it because they were the more expensive option. However, after having our wedding there I can say without a doubt that it was absolutely the right choice. Maddie, our day of coordinator and planner, guided us through everything, every detail we didn't even think of. With a steady hand she made sure the day of went off without a hitch. We walked in the day before expecting to have to do a lot of work to prep the space, Maddie cast all that aside, asked us what we wanted and handled it on her own with her team. She insisted we did not lift a finger except to relax at the hotel with a drink in hand. After the wedding they took the time to breakdown all of our decorations and prepare them for us to pick up the next day. I cannot tell you how huge this was! On top of that, I have a very restricted diet, gluten free and dairy free, and the chef was amazingly accommodating. There was nothing we asked for that they came close to saying no to. I cannot reccomend them enough. Thanks Maddie and the Mavris for making the event perfect! Reviewed on 11-02-2020

Kelsey Tiller(bride)4 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 11-10-2019 We loved Mavris for its beautiful brick and chandeliers. The ladies working are all very cheerful and friendly. People were willing to work with me on my specific vision for the ceremony and reception and were flexible and accommodating when we had to change due to rain, unexpected issues, etc. I thought that things could have run more smoothly and was frustrated that things that were planned, typed out, and clearly communicated were not carried through. My guest book was put out at the wrong time even though it was instructed to be with the photo booth only, messing up a few of the pages. Four tables were supposed to be reserved for my family but were taken by miscellaneous guests and the planner did not want to tell them to move even though she should have. Overall, the ceremony and reception were beautiful and the food was great. Any small details that went wrong were overshadowed by the big things that went well. Reviewed on 28-10-2019

We were in awe of all of the warm, beautiful wood and that GORGEOUS chandelier. It is truly a one of a kind venue due to its multiple levels and all-inclusive elements that make planning and your wedding day a breeze. Not every wedding venue includes catering, an awesome outdoor ceremony space (as well as a beautiful interior ceremony space), a day of coordinator, and an entire team to set up the wedding of your dreams.Hands down the best part of our experience at the Mavris was our planner and confidant -- Aly. Aly and her staff are all EXPERTS in the wedding business. She is fantastic at her job. She is fun, caring, pays great attention to detail, so quick to respond to any emails, and above all knows how to get people to where they need to be with a smile on her face. We had a slight hiccup with some furniture pieces not being delivered the day of and Aly was immediately on the phone and with her magic was able to get everything in place before I arrived. I did not even know there was a problem. We were slightly behind schedule, but Aly and the rest of the Mavris team put me at ease and everything went perfectly. We had the most perfect outdoor fall wedding ceremony followed by a fun and love-filled reception. Everything was so magical and romantic and whimsical and authentic--totally out of a dream!

Anna Kolodzej(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 24-06-2017 We live in LA but were getting married in Indy and needed to book our venue before we could see it in person. I knew a couple people who had gotten married at the Mavris and they had nothing but positive feedback. We spoke to Elise, our coordinator, who was really responsive and helpful (we had a lot of questions!) and we knew right away that we wanted to have our reception at the Mavris. We didn't see the venue until our tasting/6 months before our wedding (which the Mavris was able to accommodate much more in advance of our wedding date than usual due to our travel schedules). When we walked in, I was so stunned. It is such a special space and is so beautiful that I felt really proud to have our wedding reception there. We loved that we got the entire space (except the speak easy in the basement) to ourselves for the entire day. We loved the option for outdoor space (we used the rooftop and 3rd floor for our cocktail hour) and actually spent the majority of our reception out in the garden playing cornhole and enjoying the beautiful sunset and view of downtown. We also were so pleased with the food! My family is really into food, and my husband is a vegetarian and we decided to serve the eggplant parm and the feta-stuffed chicken breast. We both LOVED our meals, and received lots of feedback from our guests that the food was the best wedding meal they've ever had. We also highly recommend the bacon knots as an hors d'oeuvre - they were a hit! Elise, our coordinator, was in constant contact with us leading up to the big day and throughout the reception. She gave us lots of design ideas and handled last-minute changes with ease. She made sure we got to eat apps, and late-night pizza and that we always had a drink in hand. Everything went so smooth. It was absolutely the best day ever! Thank you to everyone at the Mavris - it was such a perfect day! Reviewed on 25-07-2017
annie mccarty(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 03-06-2017 I cannot recommend the Mavris enough! Our wedding was an absolute dream come true and we didn't have to worry about a thing knowing we were in such good hands of Elise and the rest of the Mavris staff. Initially, we fell in love with the venue space and loved the exposed brick and outdoor areas but our coordinator (Elise) and the Mavris staff won our hearts and made everything perfect! Everyone there was so friendly and attentive to us both the day of our wedding and throughout the whole planning process. Reviewed on 10-07-2017
Dave Robbins(groom)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 02-06-2018 Fantastic venue for everything all in one place.

Alicia Spanburg(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 15-10-2016 We were so excited to have our wedding at Mavris and the day did not disappoint. The whole team made sure our day went smoothly - from making sure we got the kids rounded up to the babysitting room, making sure we stayed on schedule, keeping a drink in my hand at all times after the ceremony and making sure my mom's food stayed hot while she greeted guests. The bartenders and servers were professional but really seemed to enjoy being part of the party as much as we did. The venue is amazing - we were able to use comfortably all day from the bridal suite and man cave. It's a unique and beautiful venue. Every other vendor we had said mavris was top notch and they were spot on. We are still getting compliments about how beautiful and amazing our wedding was and how much everyone loved the venue.

Amanda Bondi(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 28-10-2016 I have been to weddings here before and love the space. We looked at many spaces with a similar feel when we were planning, but our hearts led us back to Mavris and I have to say, I am so glad we chose Mavris for our ceremony and reception. First of all, the venue is gorgeous and there is so much space you can utilize from the beautiful bridal suite to the rooftop terrace...it is all so perfect. From the very beginning, Mavris made us feel at ease and never pressured us into anything we didn't want. Our coordinator, Elise, was absolutely amazing! She was so professional, but also fun. she was very attentive and from the minute we started planning until she left the night of our wedding, we never once had to worry about anything. They worked seamlessly with our other vendors. The space is beautiful, the staff is very professional and attentive, the bar service was outstanding, and the food was delicious! Our guests are still going on and on about how wonderful the night was and I know that Elise and Mavris made that happen. Reviewed on 10-11-2016
Elizabeth Mazzone(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 29-10-2016 We used the Mavris for both our ceremony and reception. It was absolutely what we were looking for with regard to look and ambiance! We were initially a little hesitant because of the price - it was a little on the higher side for us. However, in the end, there was nowhere else that came close, and we were SO GLAD we went with them! The communication with the venue from the start was easy. Shortly after signing, you are assigned a wedding coordinator - Ellie was ours and I cannot say enough good things about her!! She walked through every step of the day over multiple meetings and was easily available via email any time I had a question or concern. On the day of the wedding she and her staff set up ALL our decorations, and everything looked exactly how I wanted (better in some instances)! They let you drop off the decorations and everything prior to the wedding day and pick up everything after the wedding day - definitely nice to not have to worry about that stuff on the actual big day. We had a late Oct wedding and wanted to try for an outside ceremony - luckily the weather cooperated, but they allow you to decide to move the wedding inside up to 4 hrs prior to the ceremony without any extra charge or fuss. We did a first look and were still taking pictures upstairs as guests started arriving. Ellie met all the guests on the first floor and made sure that no one came up until we were hidden away. The ceremony went on time and seamlessly. Again, everything was perfectly placed and laid out during the cocktail hour and reception. The food, which you'll totally enjoy at your earlier tasting meeting, was delicious (especially the mashed potatoes). We brought in cupcakes from Flying Cupcake - you can use any vendor for that, but you can't bring in any food or alcohol yourself (the case you'll find with most big venues). As everyone started piling onto the dance floor, Ellie made sure to check with us before leaving. This venue will absolutely work with you to ensure your day is just as you want it. I assume there were some little things that didn't go as planned, but I never heard or noticed anything! Again, shout out to our amazing coordinator Ellie!! Reviewed on 07-11-2016
Danielle Jackson(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 03-12-2017 I don't even know where to begin! Our experience with Mavris could not have been better. Everything from the planning process to the food to the flow of the event was perfect! We were especially impressed with the staff - they were incredibly courteous and attentive all night! Mavris took care of everything we needed, all while being mindful of our budget. We received so many compliments on the space, as well as the food. Our coordinator, Elise, was with us every step of the way (even bustling my dress pre-reception)! We are so happy we chose Mavris as our wedding venue and would highly recommend them to anyone planning an event in Indy! Reviewed on 03-10-2016
Amanda Long(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 26-08-2016 My husband and I had the greatest day of our lives at The Mavris. Our coordinator (Elise) was absolutely integral to the success of our wedding. We had 200 guests, in a beautiful building, with delicious food, and a (ultimately) winning battle against mother nature. It poured rain unexpectedly, so they quickly transitioned from an outdoor ceremony to an indoor. It was still great & their professionalism was clearly evident. Our guests had a fantastic time and we couldn't be happier. Reviewed on 11-09-2016

Kelly Koven(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 17-06-2016 I could not have picked a better venue. My husband and I loved not only the actual venue itself, but the staff was so accessible and helpful throughout the entire process. I felt that at any moment throughout the wedding day there were people in the venue to help with things that needed to get done. I have received an overwhelming amount of compliments about how beautiful our wedding was and the best thing about it, is that I didn't have to decorate it that much! The building can completely stand alone in it's own beauty. The bridal suite is what really sealed the deal for me. Being in that room for so long on your wedding day can be stressful and feel claustrophobic, but the bridal suit is so beautiful and relaxing. Also, you cannot beat this location. We were easily able to get around downtown and take pictures, people were able to be close to their hotels, and most importantly we were able to go out to the bars afterwards! Reviewed on 11-07-2016
Janice Pascuzzi(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 14-05-2016 We have heard so many amazing comments from our guests about our wedding reception at the Mavris!

Everyone at the Mavris was so friendly and nice to work with. Our guests loved having different floors with room to talk, dance, sit, and eat - it was such a unique environment! We cannot say even great things about the Mavris, and we would pick this as our reception venue again in a heartbeat! Reviewed on 17-05-2016
Emily Lewis(bride)5 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 09-04-2016 Our wedding at Mavris could not have been anymore perfect. Ellie was our coordinator and we loved working with her. The staff at Mavris did anything they could to make our day perfect and bring to reality any request that we had. The planning process with Mavris was easy and followed the timeline we were given upon signing the contract with them. Our families were impressed by the small details Mavris paid attention to. For example they brought food for the kids out first before serving the other guest. Another example was the attentiveness of the chef who paid attention to food allergies of our guests. He even made a trip out to one table to speak with a guest who has lots of allergies and explained all ingredients in each dish to make sure that the guest was comfortable eating the food. The bridal party had a great time in the bridal suite getting ready in the morning and hanging out while we all got our hair and makeup done on site. Ellie made several trips to come and check on us and see if there was anything we needed. They even took our leftover food down to the man cave so it didn't go to waste. The people at Mavris made me feel like a princess on my wedding day and went above and beyond. You can tell they have hosted many events before and could execute without any hiccups down to the details we had planned during our planning meeting. The owner even showed up to see how our reception was going, on a Saturday! We could not be happier that we chose to have our wedding at Mavris and it could not have been more perfect. I know we won't look back on our wedding day with anything except great memories. Reviewed on 27-04-2016

They were amazing from the get-go! Starting with the first tour, to planning, and then providing a smooth, stress free wedding.

Getting married is an expensive thing to do so you want to make sure you are making the perfect choice. The Mavris staff did whatever they could to answer any question we had.

Alice Cheng(bride)2 out of 5 Rating Wedding Date 10-10-2015 Had discussions with sales representative from Mavris and it just seems that they are trying to nickel and dime me. I had previously received a quote and the now the quote has come back almost $7k, more which is ridiculous since my previous quote was reasonable. In addition, per their contract, they state that food cost can increase up to 10% but when we inquired how they got the 10%, they couldn't come up a reason or didn't have one, just saying that it could. I think the venue is lovely but it just seems that all they care about is trying to charge me and my fiance a ridiculous amount for the venue, then I would rather take my business elsewhere.
