2. What type of ceremonies do you perform?

Our wedding ceremonies are performed by ordained ministers with faith-based vows.

Yes, our ministers are church ordained and care a great deal about the couples that get married at our chapel.

4. May we bring our own minister?

You may bring an additional minister to participate in the ceremony. Our minister will still be a part of your special day due to time restrictions.

5. May we write our own ceremony vows?

You may write your own vows, but if you have something special for the minister to read we do ask that it is submitted to him at least 1 week prior to your wedding. This way he can become familiar with the literature and not stumble through the writings you have selected.

6. How many guests can we have?

Our chapel will hold approximately 35 guests. We also have other venues from intimate to elaborate, including an outdoor pavillion that can be converted to hold up to 75 as well as larger church venues that can be contracted on an as-needed basis.

12. Are guests allowed to take pictures or video the ceremony?

Your guests may take pictures outside only. We do not allow any cameras inside the chapel. We work very hard to ensure high standards on your wedding photographs.
