Practical Planning: What the Venue's Own Site Won't Tell You

Pricing. Prices start at $26,500, using a tiered model: a flat venue rental fee, per-person bar service (standard or custom menu), and exclusive caterer Catering By Design providing food, staff, and rentals.

Day of week matters. Cost varies widely by date — a Friday night wedding for 50 guests in February differs substantially from a peak Saturday for 250 guests.

Dance floor impacts capacity. The Grand Ballroom’s capacity shifts from 250 to 300 depending on whether a dance floor is included.

Multiple distinct spaces. With the Grand Ballroom, Grand Foyer, marble Foyer, and Renaissance Hall all available, tour multiple spaces to compare atmosphere.

Best Light and Timing for Photography

The Masonic Temple’s ornate architecture throughout the Grand Ballroom and marble Foyer offers genuinely dramatic, historic photo backdrops.
