Lake Wales Wedding and Event Venue
Where art and history set the stage for your event
Nestled in the heart of Lake Wales, our historic venue, built in 1927, offers a stunning blend of Roman, Byzantine, and Renaissance architectural details. The “mission style” of our building is inspired by the Spanish Colonial architecture of the 18th century, characterized by beautiful arches, tiled roofs, and stucco walls.
