Elopements in Niagara at
What could be more romantic
than a loving couple stealing away for an intimate wedding? Exchange
your vows in the cozy comfort of the Chapel or in our beautiful and
private "Promises Garden."
Weekends, weekdays, short notice... Bishop Deb can usually accommodate your desire for an Elopement ceremony, working within your timeframe.
The Ceremony
Sweetheart Chapel is available to you
for 30 minutes. This allows time for
your arrival, the wedding and photographs. The Elopement ceremony is
intentionally small - just for you and two witnesses. It is meaningful, non-religious (unless you prefer it) and just
fifteen-minutes in length, perfect for the couple who wants something
simple.
You have a choice of contemporary or traditional vows or you are welcome to offer your own vows. Deborah, or one of the witnesses, can take pictures with your camera to capture the happy event.
What about witnesses?
You may bring along two witnesses. If it is only the two of you, we can arrange witnesses for an additional fee of $25 per witness.
(Note: Those who wish a more personalized ceremony that includes special readings, additional elements and up to 8 guests in attendance, will prefer the Small Wedding option.)
Cost for the basic Elopement Ceremony and Chapel: $200
- Add a witness: $25 per witness

When we receive your booking and payment, we send along the ceremony via email.

What to Bring?
You'll need an Ontario wedding license. For information on where to obtain one, please refer to the FAQ page.
Arrival
Please arrive five or ten minutes before your appointed time. There is a space in the driveway for your vehicle, so you do not have to worry about parking, which can be challenging in the summertime. Please note that this is our home, and while there is a washroom available for your use, we do not have a change room. We expect that couples will arrive wedding-ready.
Payment
Your wedding must be prepaid (a $100 deposit is fine) and
prebooked.
Upon the receipt of your electronic transfer or paypal payment your requested date and
time will be confirmed via email. Payments are non-refundable.
The balance may be paid by phone or Paypal before the ceremony or in cash the
day of the wedding.
Important:
PLEASE NOTE: If you have
been divorced outside of Canada, there is an important step before you are
eligible for a wedding license. Please visit the FAQ page for more information on this.
We can recommend B&Bs, hotels, flower shops, photographers and area restaurants to make your occasion even more perfect. You may choose to have a romantic horse and carriage ride at the conclusion of your wedding -- they'll pick you up at the door!
