WHY THE TEMPLE HOUSE?
The Temple House is a private, exceptionally unique venue, and we are ready to be the perfect stage to create your perfect wedding production.

WHAT IS THE CAPACITY OF THE VENUE?
The maximum capacity per event varies based on the nature of the event and how you plan on using the space.  The Temple House has hosted events as intimate as 10 guests for a seated dinner in the center of the Grand Room, to events up to 450 reception style.  For an event that uses the outside terrace & the mezzanine as pre function areas with the curtain closed, we generally suggest 150 - 220 for a comfortable fit. The legal capacity is over 600, but with anticipated staff & furniture, we say up to 450 reception style.  If the event is on a flow, please let us know to discuss options.
