Planning Ahead

Visiting before your wedding

The short answer

Booked couples are always welcome on our free Venue Tours: book any open time, choose the option that says you're already booked, and bring your family, friends, or vendors. For engagement, bridal, or after-the-wedding photos, book a Portrait Session.

Yes, you can come see your chapel again before the big day. Here's how each kind of visit works.

A walkthrough before your wedding

Book any open time on our Venue Tour calendar. It's the same free, self-guided tour as a first visit, about 30 minutes. When you book, choose the option that says you're already booked with us.

Bring whoever you'd like to show around: parents, your planner, the aunt flying in from out of town. The booking asks how many are coming so we know who to expect.

It's a great time to discuss and finalize details for your big day. Tours end right on time, often because we're setting up for a wedding after, so plan to arrive at the start.

Tour times vary week to week, and we open them about three to four weeks ahead. The times on the calendar are the times we have.

We don't book separate walkthroughs, so a Venue Tour is the way to see the chapel before your wedding.

You can also send your vendors this Bride Guide so they have the details ahead of time. Each has a one-page summary: vendors, photographers, officiants, and your music lead.

Engagement, invitation, or bridal photos

Tours are for looking around, so for a photo shoot, book a Portrait Session: $200 for one hour on select weekdays, booked no more than four weeks ahead. You get the chapel, the grounds, and a bride & groom suite of your own. Bring your own photographer.

Coming back after the wedding

Want a couple's shoot in your wedding attire after the day? A Portrait Session works for that too.

No drop-ins

Outside of a tour, a rehearsal, or a portrait session, the chapel isn't open for drop-ins. Most days we're hosting a wedding or getting ready for one.
