Your Ceremony

The chapel bell

The short answer

Ring it whenever you like during your window — though nothing beats ringing it together as you walk out married.

The chapel has a real bell, and it's yours to ring at any point during your window.

Most couples save it for the moment that deserves it: walking out of the chapel together, just married. Grab the rope together, ring it loud, and let the Hill Country know. It's a two-second tradition that turns into everyone's favorite photo.

A tip for the photo: let your photographer and videographer know the bell is coming so they're planted and ready — it happens fast, and the best shot is your guests' faces mid-cheer.

Send it to whoever's asking — this page answers for you.
