Weddings at the Chapel

The 1979 Book of Common Prayer names what makes marriage “Christian” beautifully. We believe marriage is a life-long union and commitment where the vows are made before God and the Church; and the couple receives grace and the blessing of God to help them fulfill their vows. (BCP, 861).

As couples prepare for their wedding, our aim is to help and lend support, encouragement, and affirmation during the preparatory time and at the time of the marriage so that the couple may grow into the Sacrament of Marriage.

Who may be married?

  1. Couples of whom at least one party has received Holy Baptism

  2. Couples who are members of a church or exploring membership at a church.
