Gorgeous venue and amazing staff!

We got married at Belltower Chapel about 3 months ago and not only is the venue absolutely gorgeous but the staff is AMAZING! They are quick to respond to emails and do everything they can to make sure your day goes smoothly. We chose their all inclusive wedding package so they pretty much planned our entire wedding and did so perfectly! They pay attention to every detail and don’t miss a thing. I highly recommend getting married or hosting any other event at Belltower Chapel and Garden!!

We used the great hall for a Timeless Concerts venue

After losing the museum of art as our venue due to reconfiguration, we were relieved to find that the great hall was a good fit for our audience, and had good acoustics for our acoustic instruments! Everyone I worked with was cheerful and knowledgeable, and helpful with the many details we need for preparation, from piano delivery to working with changing audience numbers, rehearsal and performance. I heard others comment that it is nice to be able to use your own vendor, and since we provide wine and snacks, that is a plus since we are a non-profit organization and must be wise with spending. We too, are thankful that our rent helps the mission of ACH! Thank you Jody and all the staff for helping to put me at ease at concert times!

Awesome Facility and Staff

The venue is beautiful and the staff are super friendly and make the event a piece of cake! Plus their charity organization is a great cause. The neighborhood that it’s located in is a bit sketchy, but the grounds of Bell Tower is amazing!

The perfect venue!

Planning a last minute wedding with them was worth it! I spent extra for the day of coordinator and it was the best money I ever spent! The venue was gorgeous and everyone had a great time!

Blown away

This venue is beautiful. Words cannot describe this hidden gem, the grounds are amazing. Every area is a picture opportunity just waiting to happen, not to mention there’s an actual bell you get to ring.

As an Event Coordinator we work with a lot of venues and a lot of venue staff, Belltower Chapel was TOP NOTCH! You would be lucky to have Jody and Crystal on your team on your wedding day. They know their stuff and don't miss a single detail. Not to mention that the venue is beautiful with multiple spaces that can be utilized. They also have excellent gated parking. We cannot recommend them enough!

We were completely pleased with both the beautiful venue, and the excellent service from our Belltower wedding planner (Bridget) who did an AMAZING job on decor and planning. Belltower also provides a day-of coordinator at no extra cost, who keeps things organized for rehearsal, ceremony, and reception. I cannot speak highly enough of venue and staff at Belltower!

I am giving Bell Tower a full 5 stars because they were the only venue that we actually communicated with. The chapel is beautiful and they allow you to take photos anywhere on the grounds. You have full access to the chapel, reception area, and outdoors with your one fee. You can provide your own decorations or rent theirs. We provided our own and rented our linens to get the color we wanted to compliment the stained glass windows. The true reason we rented this venue was because they donate all of their proceeds to ACH childrens center which they share the lot with. The downfall is that you are extremely limited on time unless you pay the added $300 per additional hour. You nor your vendors can arrive earlier than your start time without penalty. It is difficult to invision what the venue will look like or how much space you will truly have because they do not set up the tables and chairs until immediately before your start time. They include tables and chairs for up to 200 guests I believe as well as tables for your cake, gifts, sweet heart table, and DJ if needed at no added cost. They only have 2 bathrooms in the chapel which was perfectly fine for our 80 guests. They do allow open vendor policy as long as your vendor has liability insurance which each of ours did already. They also allow alcohol as long as you have an off duty officer which they take care of but it is an added cost. These are all probably standard for all venues but I think they are important to consider for your big day.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

My first wedding at Belltower Chapel and Garden as a coordinator was a dream wedding. Everything was perfect and the glow from the windows in the reception area made their reception magical. The staff is efficient, helpful and friendly and we love performing ceremonies there as well as coordinating their wedding. Gordon and Lora Lea Nelson, The Wedding Preacher
