1. Can I bring in my own alcohol?
You certainly
can! You will just need to provide a certified Bartender along with an ALE
Permit if you are serving liquor.
2. Do I have to be a Mason to have my event
at AMT?
We do love our
Masons and a discount is provided if you are a mason, but you do not need to be
a mason to host an event here at The Asheville Masonic Temple!
3. Do I have to rent out the Whole Building
or can I just rent one space?
You can do
both! We do have a Whole building rental rate along with specific areas or
floor rates.
4. Do you have an in-house caterer?
We do not,
which allows you to bring in what type of food you truly envision for your
event. We have a great Preferred Vendors List of Caterers we work with, but you
also can bring in whoever you would like.
5. Can you help us with décor for our
event?
We love to help
set up and provide décor for your event. We have an in-house selection of
beautiful décor items from Cylinders, Lanterns to Arbors and Chalkboards for
rent.
6. Are our backdrops in the Theater Space
always down?
YES! We love
our 52 different historic backdrops made in 1915. You can, of course, raise them
up as we have a Black Box of draping where you could create your own vision,
but we also love to leave our backdrops down to set the perfect feel for your
event.
7. Can you hang décor in the Great Room?
Yes! We have
nails already in place for all your draping and lighting needs. We do have
gorgeous Edison Lights that we can hang as well.
8. Do you allow Theater Performances?
We love to have
Theater Groups in the space and have a discounted rate for these performances.
9. Can we host our Ceremony and Reception
at AMT?
Absolutely, we
have a few different options for both. Our most popular is to host the Ceremony
in our Theater, Cocktail Hour in our Noble Room and Balcony, and Reception in
our Great Room. We can also do Ceremonies in our Great Room and flip the room
for a Reception. If you are interested in a cocktail style Reception we can
certainly use our Noble Room for that as well.
10. How many hours can I rent the space?
Our Rental is an 8-hour Building Rental
from either 7am-2pm or 3pm-11pm. We can also add on additional hours before or after the event.
