Weddings

Weddings are now being booked for the summer and fall of 2013.  

The Chapel provides a unique, intimate setting for weddings. We would be honoured to be made a part of your celebration.

Guidelines

  1. The Chapel, although open to all, is under the direction of the Diocese of Huron of the Anglican Church of Canada; ceremonies be considerate of those directions. It is a site for Christian weddings.
  2. At least one of the bride or groom must be baptized, both if there is to be communion at the wedding.
  3. Confetti – Please ensure that no confetti nor rice is scattered in or around the Chapel property.
  4. Wedding service bulletins can be used at the couple’s discretion. To be ordered through your printer, or can be arranged through the Chapel. ($30.00 fee per hundred)
  5. The Chapel organist has first priority to play for weddings. If a different instrumentalist is desired, this must be approved by the Chaplain. Only a qualified organist is acceptable to play the church organ, and the church organist's fee is paid in any case. Music to be used is arranged between the couple and the organist, subject to approval by the Chaplain.

Video can he taken provided the camera is fixed on a tripod at the front of the Chapel and is allowed to record on its own without an operator.

  9. Pew decorations may be used with permission from the Chaplain and at the expense of the couple.
  10. There will be a wedding rehearsal for all members of the wedding party, as arranged with the Officiant.
