The Perfect Place for Your “Day to Remember”
Need a wedding venue as beautiful as your feelings for each other? Putting on a business event, concert, or performance that creates an impact? Celebrating a milestone? Whatever kind of event you're hosting, we have a space that is the right size, has the right amenities, and comes at an affordable price.
Timeless Beauty
Elegant surroundings make any event better, and that makes the Masonic Event Center the perfect setting for any occasion. Classic architecture and tasteful decor provide rooms that are lovely by themselves, but they won’t get “in the way” if you choose your own decorations.
Affordability
Your event should create lasting memories, not bills that last for years! That’s why we strive to make our pricing not just competitive, but the best value in the region.
Versatility
No matter what the size and purpose of your gathering, we have a room that is the right size and provides the right atmosphere and amenities. Here you’ll find spaces ranging from lodge rooms, which are perfect for business presentations and conferences, to a fully equipped auditorium.
Free Access before Your Event
Many venues charge extra fees if you wish to decorate your chosen space before the day of your event. We feel you should have the freedom to make the space your own, so we give you full access, free of charge, on the business day before your event.
Exclusive Bar Service
Pub 225 is an award winning beverage service owned and operated by certified mixologists Jason & Jamie Schmidt. Large or small, wet or dry, we can create a one of kind menu for events of all ages and budgets.

Testimonials
“We had our wedding reception here. We had a great time at the Masonic Temple. Jeff, the caterer, helped to make the day go super smoothly. He was easy to get a hold of, the months before the wedding, to answer any questions. And he really went the extra mile to make the day special for us. Highly recommend!”
Elizabeth Badskey
“Available for organizations and private functions, receptions, dances, concerts. Beautiful building!”
Nancy White
“The Masonic has a beautiful, huge ballroom that can accommodate a great number of guests (300+). The greatest benefit is we could come in the day before and decorate. The rental price is reasonable. ...Caterer is wonderful and his food is delicious!”
