Welcome!

WELCOME! I'm really excited to be blogging throughout my internship so that everyone that isn't here with me everyday (Hi Mammy! I'm looking at you!) can keep up with what I'm doing! So more about DPM...


Deer Park Manor is a GORGEOUS home (mansion, I think) located in Bloomington, Indiana. Deer Park was built from 1953 to 1956 by Sarkes and Mary Tarzian. Sarkes Tarzian started WTTV in Indy, which he later sold, but his company still holds several TV and radio stations. He is also known for his fundamental contributions to building the color television!


After the Tarzian family, came the Fitzgerald family. They purchased the home in 1998 and did MAJOR renovations - most of the landscaping, front drive/entryway, and interior decor (collected over the last 30 years!) comes from the Fitzgerald family.


Since I can't properly describe it in words, some photos.


This is the front entry way to the home.

Another beautiful shot of the front entryway. As you can see, it's gorgeous for taking wedding photos!

The backside, where many have their outdoor events! As you can see, this is another beautiful area for photos!

The main room for events, I normally refer to it as the pool room... but where's the pool!? It's under that cover! I'll post a photo as soon as I find a good one!

Another great interior space - the bridal suite!

Since Deer Park Manor sits on multiple acres of space, which gives couples huge outdoor spaces not only for photos, but also for a beautiful outdoor ceremony like this!


Another shot of the landscaping at DPM, this time with some fun decorations!

As you can see, Deer Park Manor is beautiful, and gives any event a great space to work with. They allow outside vendors (from their preferred list) and are priced very affordably. (More information on vendors and pricing can be found here.)

I've already done a couple events at DPM and spent a lot of time with their fantastic event coordinator (and my internship coordinator) Sue, so those posts will be coming soon!
