"I had the privilege of photographing an April wedding here and I can say the staff were some of the nicest I have came across. They were so diligent and always checking in on us. They worked up until the ceremony to ensure the chapel was immaculate. The service was absolutely amazing!"

"We couldn't be happier about our wedding at Arcadia Academy. We traveled quite a bit, and it was so convenient for our family to be able to stay at the same venue! It's very close to natural beauty, we were able to go hiking on the morning of our wedding...Our wedding dinner was so delicious! The venue itself is amazing in its historic beauty. We couldn't have asked for a better experience as far as accommodations go. We felt like we had a VIP pass to the grounds and able to customize every detail of our experience."

"We had our wedding and reception at Arcadia Academy 4/13/2024. From the initial tour to the final check out, our experience was beyond perfect. At the first tour we were immediately impressed by the history and aesthetics of the venue. It’s a beautiful space. Working with Chrystal was fantastic. She and the entire Arcadia Academy team were so welcoming, responsive, and accommodating. We really loved having on site options for our guests and family to stay. The Priest House and Laundry House provided the perfect places for us to stay and be with our guests and prepare for the wedding. We can’t imagine a more perfect place to have our wedding and are so pleased with the entire experience."
