fantastic & beautiful. Mitra helped us out so much and provided a lot of the decorations. She went above and beyond in her service. The acacia club is so beautiful that you hardly need to decorate

My fiancé and I immediately fell in LOVE with The Acacia Club at The Scottish Rite! Mitra was wonderful and went waaaay above and beyond our expectations. We were so, so thrilled to have our wedding ceremony and reception at the Scottish Rite. Mitra responded to emails almost immediately and was so helpful in her suggestions for a smooth wedding day. She met with us a few times to make sure things were coming along as our day was approaching. Not only was she there while we were setting up, but she helped us set up and made sure any extra centerpieces or things were put away until we came back to take everything down. I was anticipating much more DIY and asking friends to help with small tasks (like lighting the candles on the centerpieces) but Mitra truly worked on our wedding day, she was all over and behind the scenes making sure everything went seamlessly! She even wore a purple to match our wedding colors!!

The Scottish Rite is a beautiful, antique, old stunning building and they have Chef Hosch and Ann on their caterer list, which is even better because they did a great job catering our wedding!!

We had our ceremony in the little theater, and were able to use the dressing rooms the whole day beforehand for hair/makeup/pictures etc... it was wonderful to have all the space basically to ourselves!!

Compared to other indoor and outdoor venues, the Scottish Rite is definitely affordable and comes built in with character and beautiful spaces to have a ceremony and reception.

We can't say enough on how awesome Mitra was in our wedding planning and success on the day - she was so kind and such a hard worker!! she is an asset to the scottish rite!

As one of the "BIG 4" of the Williamsport area wedding venues, the Acacia Club is one of those rare venues that needs no artificial decoration. Surely a floral arrangement would look good here or there, but nothing is needed to add charm or beauty, as it is built within. The marble staircase leading from the upstairs dining area to the downstairs dance floor is my favorite spot to do a bridal party introduction anywhere, as you can have the men and women enter the staircase from opposite sides, adding to the dramatic effect. Mitra DeBloois does an amazing job of attending to your every detail, and I swear she works 24/7, because every time I'm there, she's already been there hours ahead. There are so many options that can expand your reception space, it's unbelievable. Bottom line, I LOVE DJ'ing a wedding there, and hopefully you enjoy having yours there.
