Above and beyond

If I could give six stars I would. My mother asked me for her information so dhe could also review we were so impressed. She was sending us timelines, in constant and easily available communication, and made sure I was not worried about time or order day of without making me feel rushed. Two people have asked me for her information. Couldn't recommend enough!

Incredible Experience!!

My husband and I are both active duty Navy and do not live in the same state we got married in. Jan and Cyndi came to our rescue and guided us through the planning process with expertise and grace. The entire event would not have been possible without them. If you want a great value experience where any concern you have is promptly answered, backed with years of experience, then we recommend Going to the Chapel. They are both incredible and so attentive. Thank you for making our day incredible!
