Newly engaged and venue hunting? Wedding venue shows are basically wedding planning speed-dating with champagne, food samples, and zero pressure. Come see why they’re a must before you book anything!

If you are planning a wedding in 2026 or 2027 and you want mountain views, dreamy historic vibes, and an entire weekend with your favorite people… surprise. You don’t have to fly to Italy. You only have to drive to Arcadia. Arcadia Academy is the hidden gem of Southeast Missouri and apparently brides keep saying it looks like a movie set. I won’t argue. Come tour. Bring your mom. Bring your fiancé. Bring the cousin who has opinions. We are ready.

Kids at weddings? Should you do it? They’re cute, funny, and occasionally sticky. From flower girls eating petals to ring bearers doing victory laps, we’ve seen it all. Whether you go kid-free or full family mode, Arcadia Academy has the space, snacks, and patience to handle it.

The Royal Wedding of Missouri. A 325 guest wedding at Arcadia Academy had it all: perfect weather, family chaos, boomers clogging the chapel doors, and a buffet pivot. From early bird bartenders to lost shirts and frat boy cleanup crews, this Southeast Missouri wedding proved that love, caffeine, and a little family teamwork can handle anything.
