CHAPEL WEDDINGS

Officiants for your Wedding Ceremony.

 Congratulations! We know you are here because you are looking for the perfect place to have a small intimate wedding, without the drama and complexity that usually goes along with traditional, large weddings. The Mission Chapel, offers ultimate locations for your destination weddings without the destination prices. We offer ceremony only weddings for the budget friendly bride for up to 50 people.

 When we began looking for a budget friendly wedding venue to hold our own ceremony in 2014, we quickly realized that even the most conservative venues were going to cost thousands of dollars. We didn’t need or want a luxury wedding and reception, but we also didn’t want to visit a justice or the peace or courthouse for our wedding. We simply wanted to elope in a small, simple way that honored our budget and our personalities.

We have beautiful settings to hold your ceremony. From the picturesque Wildwood Estate Venue in Ventura County, California, you can drive to some of the best places to eat and drink in all of the Santa Rosa Valey.   The Historic Church and Gazebo at the Pioneer Living History Museum in Phoenix, Arizona, offers a period feeling of a late 1800’s Arizona Pioneer Setting. And the Cave Creek Museum and Historic Chapel in Cave Creek, Arizona, offers a more intimate, eclectic venue in a picture-perfect town in the desert foothills that brings history, culture, and nature together in a unique atmosphere. Best of all, the entire day won’t cost you thousands of dollars, if that’s what you choose. Our simple traditional Christian, Non-Denominational ceremonies start at $750 for elopements or just your small intimate group.

Our business model is simple, providing an affordable, unique ceremony in a spectacular setting at a notable venue, and we found just that when we partnered with Wildwood Grove Estate in Camarillo, California, the Pioneer Living History Museum in Phoenix, Arizona, the Cave Creek Museum and Historic Chapel in Cave Creek, Arizona, and our new location, opening soon in Sarasota, Florida.

Call us today so that we can get started planning the day you will remember for the rest of your lives. Phoenix, Arizona – 480-217-8389, Ventura County, California – 805-618-1644.

 Invocation:

We are gathered here today in the sight of God, and the presence of friends and loved ones to celebrate one of life’s greatest moments.  _____________ and _______________ have invited us to be here with them on this beautiful day to experience and witness the public declaration of their love and commitment  for each other.  May this be a moment to cherish and remember for the rest of their lives. We can learn about the wonderful qualities of love from the Bible.  First Corinthians says:  Love is patient, love is kind.  It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.  It is not rude, it is not self seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.  Love does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth.  Love always protects, always trusts, always hopes, and always preserves. Love never fails.  And now these three remain: Faith, Hope, and Love, but greatest of these, is Love.
