Weddings at the Wabash & Erie Canal are beautiful, unique, and affordable. Read below for information about your options with us.

The Little White Chapel

Looking for a small wedding with an intimate venue? Reserve the White Chapel today and use this historic 1889 church as the perfect setting.

The chapel has heavenly acoustics and natural light, heating and air conditioning, and is handicap-accessible. There is seating for about 50 guests, plus chairs and podium are included.

The Reception Hall

If you want a large,indoor gathering space to host your reception, wedding ceremony (or both), ask us about the reception hall. With up to 4,300 square feet available, there is ample space for banquet seating of 250+ guests.

Rentals include audio-visual equipment, tables and chairs, catering kitchen, and access to the upstairs dressing and preparation room. We have options and configurations available for every budget, and we would be happy to craft an itinerary to meet your needs.

The Canal Boat

Our one-of-a-kind, custom-made canal boat can be rented by the ride or by the hour. Make the day unforgettable for you and your guests with cruises on the historic Wabash & Erie Canal. These cruises can include historic narration, or it can simply be a relaxing ride for photos and enjoyment.

We will work with you to coordinate an experience that will fit your vision for your wedding, and your guests will be talking about it well after the cake has been cut!

Stunning Outdoor Setting

Wabash & Erie Canal Park is situated along about one mile of scenic waterfront and historic buildings, meaning you have plenty of options for outdoor weddings.

When you schedule a visit with us, please inquire about suggested locations and we would be happy to show you around.
