Just went to a wedding here on 7/18/26! Such a cute little Chapel! There was a bridal suite with a full length mirror and vanity to do hair and makeup, and some couches and chairs. Not a big room but you need to bring your own supplies, and be prepared bc you only have 30 minutes prior to your scheduled service and the room has to be emptied before your service. The staff were so kind and patient with my friend (bri…

It was fun and not stressful at all…

We had our wedding here in Las Vegas and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The service was absolutely amazing from start to finish. We ended up needing to change our date and time last minute, and they were incredibly accommodating and understanding, which took a lot of stress off our shoulders. They also worked with us on a great deal for a photo package, and everything turned out even better …
