Garden Chapel Weddings Features

The Garden Chapel is an elegant setting for an intimate wedding of a few or a gracious celebration of many. The chapel comfortably holds a capacity of 125 guests. In addition, 150 people can be accommodated for outdoor weddings. The Chapel provides an extraordinary background for photographs as well as lush outdoor gardens.

Minister
Our Minister will enhance your wedding experience of commitment to a fuller relationship of love, trust and intimacy.

Availability
The chapel is available for reservation most days of the week for your wedding ceremony.

Flowers
Due to the natural setting of the Garden Chapel, expensive floral arrangements are not necessary. By day the chapel is illuminated by natural lighting and by night soft muted lighting for a romantic flair. Candelabras and candles are included with your ceremony.

Music
The Chapel's acoustical qualities will insure that all your guests will enjoy the service as much as the bride and groom. Recorded music is included with all wedding ceremonies. In addition, the Chapel boasts an organ and piano. A professional organist is available with proper notice and a fee.

Our own Paul Deming is available to sing for your wedding. As professional musician and songwriter, he can even write a song just for you! Paul also plays lead guitar for the popular Ralph Butler Band, which is available for your wedding reception.

Photography
The Chapel gardens are a photographer's dream! The gazebo offers a beautiful and romantic background for a photograph to cherish always. Numerous benches surrounded by various unique plants, trees, and flowers also create a picturesque setting. Ample time is provided for photographs before and after the wedding.

Dressing Area
The chapel offers a spacious dressing area for the bride and her attendants. This dressing area is available for the bride one hour before the scheduled event.

Rehearsals
We are happy to schedule by advance appointment, a short rehearsal (30-minutes) on the Wednesday evening prior at no additional charge. Thursday and Friday evening rehearsals (30-minutes) are subject to additional charges. The organist is available with proper notice to practice with a soloist for small additional fee.

We encourage advance rehearsals for weddings with several attendants and are happy to provide The Garden Chapel and our services; however, it is not a problem if an advance rehearsal is not possible. We will instruct the participants prior to the ceremony on the day of the wedding.

Should you have a request for a specific time or day or any other request, we might be able to accommodate you, just let us know. We want you to have a wedding to remember!
