Chapel and Ceremony Policies

Wedding Chapel and Ceremony Policies

As with any service provider, there are rules. Please be sure and review these prior to your wedding ceremony.

There are some limitations in the amenities that we are able to offer. The Little Chapel has a maximum capacity of 16 guests. The Enchanted Chapel has a maximum capacity of 36 guests. Please make sure you do not exceed this number of guests. In compliance with parking and fire codes, we will not allow more than the designated number of guests and we cannot allow guests to stand in the aisles. 

  • Pets attending your ceremony must be preapproved.
  • Your flower girl may throw silk flowers. No fresh flower petals are allowed. They permanently stain our hardwood floors.
  • No rice is allowed. You may use bubbles or birdseed.

Other Policies

  • We do not provide an area for receptions. Please do not bring food or drinks to the chapel.
  • Receptions/cake cuttings are not allowed in our cabins. We will be glad to offer a list of area restaurants/parks that offer these services.
  • You must provide a valid mailing address and two phone numbers to secure a contract.
  • Any damage to the chapel or cabins by anyone in attendance will be charged to your bill.
  • Infractions of stated policies at any time will result in cancellation or refusal of service.
  • Gratuity for attending minister is permissible and appreciated greatly.

Liability

In the event of an act of God, technical error, or human error, Miss Caroline’s Wedding Chapel/Country Cabins assumes responsibility only up to the financial amount paid for the particular service.

Music

Your package includes one song for the processional and one song for the recessional. If you choose to bring your own music for this portion of your ceremony, you must bring it on CD format. This will avoid any mistakes from occurring. The price of your package does not include live music or instruments.

For any and all services provided, our contract is with the person named on said contract, regardless of who makes payment(s) for the ceremony or the reception.

Photography Restrictions

An announcement stating no personal image devices are permitted on chapel grounds will be made prior to your ceremony. Please let your guests know that cameras are not allowed during the ceremony or photo session. Anyone not in compliance will result in a fee of $100.00 to the person noted on the contract. You will have lots of photos from your photo gallery to share!

Dressing Rooms

Large dressing rooms are provided for the Bride and Groom only. Other members of the wedding party should arrive dressed. If you have guests coming from out of town, please ask them to come dressed or make arrangements for an offsite dressing area.

Ceremony Time

You have roughly one hour. Arrival time to the chapel, ceremony time and departure time is strictly enforced to insure a stress free environment for each wedding scheduled the day of your ceremony. We will be glad to direct your guests to your reception venue or a meeting place for everyone to gather following your ceremony. All guests are asked to leave the property by half past your ceremony hour.

Couples must arrive 30 minutes prior to your ceremony time. A late fee of $100 will be added to your package balance if your ceremony does not start at the reserved time. We cannot delay your ceremony for late guests. Please inform your guests of this rule so they can plan enough travel time. Should you feel you need more time, an additional hour may be added to you package for an additional  $300.
