Our Wedding Venue

We'll be getting married at Indigo Hall on Sunday, May 25th at 5:30 PM.

Indigo Hall is a converted cotton warehouse located at 190 Ezell Street in Downtown Spartanburg. If you know your Spartanburg geography, it's right behind the Mayor's house, next door to where Java Jive used to be, and across Daniel Morgan Avenue from RJ Rockers and Cribbs Restaurant (our caterer). For the regional historians, it used to be the Loading Dock, a bar frequented by Julie's parents - Tommy and Cheri - in the 1970s.

The ceremony will take place outside in the garden. It will be on grass, so high heels may sink in. Please consider the weather when choosing what to wear as well. There is a covered veranda if you think you'll need some shade (or if it's raining). The reception will immediately follow the ceremony in the side of the Hall closest to the garden. The buffet will be inside, but the band and bar will be outside on the veranda.

We invite everyone staying at the hotel to walk to the wedding venue. It is 0.4 mile. You may want to consider this when choosing footwear; feel free to bring a pair of flip-flops for later in the evening. It's much easier to celebrate if you're comfortable!

There will be free parking on the streets around the venue, and also in the QS1 parking garages. If you'd prefer a ride to or from the venue, please leave a comment here or email Julie at julie.m.cook@gmail.com.

Feel free to check out the venue here: Indigo Hall
