Non-Peak dates

For-Lou Farms is one of the most affordable wedding venues in the Indianapolis area, especially when considering that we strive to offer value to our couples by providing you with maximum flexibility. There are no hidden fees, sales tax is already included in the price tag, and no required vendors give you the freedom to go as elaborate or casual as you wish!
