I’ll preface this by saying that the Scottish Rite Cathedral is a beautiful place to host an event! We were blown away by the building and architecture. However, when booking the Scottish Rite, I was booking under the condition that no other event take place the day of my wedding. I had a feeling what could occur if that did happen. I was told that they would do that for me and was reassured that they would not book any other event that day. So I went ahead and booked my wedding venue. I was also told there would not be any Christmas decorations. My husband and I spent a fortune on decorating the place Christmas themed for our wedding. Two weeks before my wedding I did a walk through of the cathedral and there was Christmas decorations everywhere!!! I asked if they were staying up and they said yes, if you would like them to! How convenient after we spent all of that money. Anyway a week before my wedding I was told that an event was booked at the Scottish Rite the same day as my wedding and that I would have to be quiet when entering the Tiler’s room when taking photos. Fast forward to my wedding day after ceremony my bridal party and I were going towards the Tiler’s room (front entrance of cathedral) to take our main photos when I was told I did not have access to that room and could not take photos there!!! That is where my photos with my children were going to be as well as bridal party photos. I got none of the photos I dreamed of due to their selfishness! I later found out that they knew about this other event 3 months prior to my wedding. But I was only told one week before that I still had access to the room but would have to be quiet. On my wedding day I was told I couldn’t even go in there!! They walked myself and my bridal party outside in the cold around the building and along the street to take photos in front of the building. Despite all this, the wedding was amazing and the venue was incredible. The treatment we received on the day of the wedding was not.
