If you are religious, it is very easy to solve the question of a wedding chapel as you can marry in your usual place of worship. This may be a church, synagogue, mosque or other religious temple. However, if you have not had a religious upbringing, are marrying someone of a different religion or culture, or simply would rather select a different venue, it is important to discover what wedding chapel options are open to you. If you would still like a ceremony in the style of a particular religion, most chapels have a host of different officiants who can provide the appropriate wedding ceremony.

The majority of wedding chapels are in the style of churches. Most couples seek this traditional ambience, even if they do want a non-denominational ceremony. Chapels advertise these features, such as stained glass windows, oak flooring, historical buildings, chandeliers and more. If you would prefer a modern building, it is possible to find chapels that are less traditional, — such as located in art galleries — but you will need to research well

Wedding chapels are various sizes, and you must calculate how many guests will require seating at your wedding before committing to a particular chapel. The majority of chapels seat between a hundred and a hundred and fifty guests, but there is one to suit every size of wedding. In Las Vegas, for example, there are chapels just large enough for the bride, groom, officiant and witness.

The location of your wedding chapel is key. There are numerous choices in cities and towns, but you may opt for a more natural or dramatic position. There are wedding chapels located anywhere from the Smoky Mountains to Hawaiian beaches, from Lake Tahoe to Disneyland!

If you have connections to the military, you could consider holding your wedding in a military chapel on academy grounds. There are long waiting lists for these facilities, but they are usually free (except a charitable donation). Some facilities offer a choice of chapel depending on your religion, and it is possible to find Protestant, Catholic and Jewish chapels. However, there may be restrictions on decoration or numbers of guests.

There is also a vast array of novelty, or themed, wedding chapels springing up. The first themed chapels originated in Las Vegas, but it is now possible to find outlandish chapel designs anywhere. Aside from the ubiquitous Elvis chapels, there are options such as a neon wedding at the luminous chapel in New Orleans, or a Cowboy chapel in Nevada. Try to incorporate the theme into other aspects of your wedding, such as your attire, the music and food. Some chapels even supply costumes for the guests.
