The Lafayette Grande, built in 1923 as Masonic Temple Lodge No. 21, has been lovingly restored to showcase its original craftsmanship and timeless details. From the secret-handshake door and hidden built‑in safe to the vintage elevator and sweeping grand staircases, the building’s unique history and elegant features make it a beautiful, memorable setting for our celebration.

Cocktail Attire

The ceremony begins at 5:30 PM. Please arrive by 5:00 PM to allow time for traffic, parking, elevators, and other logistics. Thank you.

We’ll provide valet parking at the venue; attendants will be stationed near the building’s main entry doors for easy drop-off and pickup.

There are stairs at the main entrance and to the venue. If you’re unable to use the stairs, an alternate entrance leads directly to the elevator—please ask the valet attendants to direct you there.

The Lafayette Grande has multiple ballrooms; our celebration will be in the Crystal Ballroom on the 4th floor. A grand stairway leads up to that level and an elevator is available for guests who prefer or need it—look for clear signage to guide you.

The elevator at the Lafayette Grande is original to this 100+ year‑old building and has a historic sliding gate that recalls old department‑store charm. It’s fully functional but limited for safety—please ride with no more than five people at a time.
