Chapel In The Hills

All weddings are officiated by our Chapel pastors, ordained Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA) clergy. No lay officiants or other clergy are permitted to perform marriages at the Chapel. The only exception is if you have your own ELCA pastor that you would like to officiate your ceremony. In this case, you must contact the Chapel with the pastor's name and church served. Persons of all faiths and denominations are welcome to be married at the Chapel. If you have any concerns in this manner, please contact the Chapel or the pastor directly. As your wedding date gets closer, you are encouraged to contact the pastor to discuss any special requests and other pertinent information. The pastor's contact information will be provided upon request. Likewise, we will share your contact information with the pastor. The Chapel pastors are responsible for the service and will make the final determination on the order and content of the ceremony. The Chapel organist is available to play for most weddings. During certain days our organist may be replaced by an accompanist using an electronic keyboard. You may also use your own organist. It should be noted, however, that the Chapel cannot be reserved or closed for the organist or other musicians to practice. You are welcome to provide your own music if you wish. This may include musicians or recorded music suitable to a Church setting. You may bring a portable cd play or smartphone to connect to the Chapel speaker system. Be sure to bring a regular audio cord to plug your device into our speaker, or use a smartphone with Bluetooth connectivity. No professional DJ's or extensive sound systems are allowed.
