Hali Mynatt
Owner | Event Coordinator
Hi! My name is Hali Mynatt, owner of Hali Mae Events. I am married to my high school sweetheart. In addition to the events business, we run a small farm operation in Mooresville where we grow crops and raise cattle. I am a mom to 3 young children, I own 2 event venues, 5 East and The Barn at Milkhouse Lane, and I love ALL things events!
I found my passion for events at a young age when I organized a benefit concert and auction to raise money for a friend who suffered injuries in a car accident. I began working as a college student for a prestigious Indianapolis catering company and my love for all things events grew even bigger!
Fast forward a couple years, I graduated from IUPUI with a bachelor’s degree in Event Management, and began my career as an Event Coordinator for a local non-profit shortly after. I now have over 12 years experience in the industry - coordinating weddings, social events, galas, golf outings, corporate events and more. I am excited to watch my education and experience come to fruition through this company!
I am eager to partner with you to make all your event dreams come true!

Erica Apollos
Day of Wedding Coordinator
Hello! My name is Erica Apollos, one of the wedding coordinators here at 5 East. I am SO excited for this season of life you are in, and cannot wait for the chance to celebrate your special day with you! I have been married to my best friend for 4 years now, and we have two beautiful babies that bring us so much joy!
I have been coordinating weddings for a handful of years now, both on my own and here at 5 East, a wonderful venue! Wedding coordination is my “side” job, simply because I truly love doing it! Full time, I am a Program Coordinator for residency/fellowships at Ascension St. Vincent Hospital. My initial training/background was in physical therapy as a clinician, however, it was wedding coordination that helped me make the transition into the administrative world, to a job that I truly do love!
It is my goal for you to be able to look back on your wedding day and remember even the little things and moments, without having to stress about them happening! I am so excited to be able to work with you and make your dream day come true!
