Very disappointed in this place. Wanted to get married to my wife. Judgemental people wouldn't let that happen. People who are judgemental and rude are a disappointment to the world and everyone who just wants to be happy obviously this place doesn't support and just a rude and hateful place. ZERO STARS!

I've been here twice recently for other peoples weddings.the female isn't very family friendly. The ceremony isn't very personal either, never said their names nor pronounced them husband and wife. It's low cost and you get what you pay for I suppose.

The decor was very nice and if you want to take pictures they will turn out really nice. The gentleman performing the ceremony is pretty nice but can get long winded. Maybe he could give it a little more romantic and persoal touch as in his wording ( just a suggestion).Over all a really nice place to be married

Lovely little chapel. The minister was wonderful and the ceremony was beautiful. I didn't hear the same old promises but a very practical vow exchanged by two people with beautiful scriptures.

This Chapel provides three settings for a small gathering. It is intimate, friendly, and Christian religious based. It was extremely well priced. Extras if you want and if not they don't pressure you. I had nothing negative occur. In fact they switched our schedules with someone who was early because we forgot our license since the other party was happy to do so! No fuss. (And bless you unknown bride it was your !)

This was exactly perfect for my ceremony. The mans name who officiated my ceremony went by the name of DON, and may I just say - what a lovely person. I felt instantly warm, and a sincere joy and maybe even like he knew me, like he cared about me and my to be husband. There are options as to the packages available for your ceremony. rings? Being walked down the aisle? Etc etc.and I promise if you call ahead and ask your questions someone (it was Don for myself) will answer you with patience and enthusiasm. oh and if you get so excited you forget your wedding license at home and have to go back to get it and you're running late, they will wait on you, lol! THANK YOU FOR A PERFECT MOMENT and for taking beautiful photos!
