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 couldn't have picked a better venue for our July 2014 wedding! We knew this was the place for our wedding after our first visit to the chapel and meeting with Bridget. The venue was beautiful and provided everything we were looking for in our wedding venue. And the icing on the cake was that the proceeds from our wedding would benefit others!

I was planning our wedding from Houston with the help of my mom in Oklahoma, so we were looking to hire a wedding planner to help streamline the process. The ability to hire one of the event planners from Belltower was perfect for our situation, so we opted for the package that included the full wedding planning services of Bridget. This was the best decision we ever made!!! Needless to say, Bridget became my best friend over the following months and was an absolute angel throughout the entire process. She recommended vendors, set up all the vendor appointments, kept me on track with everything and was very accessible. Our two favorite moments from our wedding day were moments suggested by Bridget! She really understood our vision for the big day and made it come to life! My husband and I were able to enjoy our wedding day without worrying about any of the details. Our big day went off without a hitch (or at least as far as we knew.) Bridget and her staff took care of EVERYTHING!!

I could write a book on our wonderful experience with Bridget and the Belltower. I highly recommend this venue to anyone looking for a venue in the Ft. Worth area. You will NOT be disappointed if you choose this venue; especially, if you hire Bridget as your wedding planner!

We cannot even begin to express how pleased we were with our entire experience with Bell Tower Chapel & Gardens! It is a beautiful place with such great meaning and purpose. We used Bridget Pouges as our wedding planner and event coordinator. She was absolutely incredible! This was a destination wedding for all of us since everyone lives at least 4 hours away. Bridget's planning and expertise made our event such a pleasant experience. Bridget and her staff handled everything! The day of the event seemed flawless, or as far as we know. If there was a snag or a problem, Bridget handled it! She is amazing!! Bridget not only provided a service to us, but became a cherished friend in the process. That is priceless! We highly recommend Bell Tower Chapel and Gardens and Bridget Pouges, a first class facility, service and staff.

The Belltower chapel is beautiful and exceeded the expectations for our wedding day. We worked with Cindy and she was fabulous. She helped us set up our day of time line and made sure it was executed flawlessly. She was always happy to email/talk if I needed to ask a question. Fabulous experience! The chapel also has a list of preferred vendors. We used this list and we were happy with everything! Thanks for the fabulous experience!

What a great find for a venue!!!! So many options that they can provide for you and the Bridal Mall on their website was the best find out of all the venues we looked at. They were flexible up until the final minutes as we had to move our wedding from outdoors to indoors as a storm blew in. Thank you so much to the staff their and we were so grateful for our coordinator!

This is a beautiful place to get married at. The stained glass windows throughout the chapel and reception area are gorgeous. The staff is just wonderful. You get a day- of coordinator which I loved! Our coordinator, Erika, did a wonderful job. She was a huge help to us. She took care of everything and made me feel much more at ease. What makes Belltower really awesome is that all the fees go towards the non-profit organization ACH Child and Family Services. It is reasonably priced which was hard to find when looking at other venues. I would definitely recommend Belltower to any future couples getting married.

I knew I wanted to get married at the Belltower Chapel before I even saw it in person! It is absolutely stunning and there is no other place like it! It really did make my wedding a dream wedding! You get a day-of coordinator when you book here and that was so great! Jody was my coordinator and she made me feel so excited and at ease about everything. Jody was just the cherry on top of having my wedding here! Blake and I recommend the Belltower to everyone we know. You can bring in your own vendors (amazing!) which saved us a lot of money and I didn't feel like I was forced to get a cake from a certain place, etc.. Thank you, Belltower Chapel, for making my wedding a dream come true!

Beautiful Wedding Venue! Fabulous Facility! Stunning stained glass adorns this gorgeous chapel. Everyone at the Belltower are warm, friendly, courteous, professional and truly want to help make every moment of your wedding day flawless and perfect. They are a great team and wonderful to work with! What is extraordinary is that all fees benefit ACH Child and Family Services. Our experience working with this wonderful venue was exceptional and I highly recommend them 100%!

I really love this venue. Not only is it ABSOLUTELY beautiful (trust me, you'll get amazing photos) but the money goes to charity! My DOC, Erika, was funny and really helpful. Unfortunately, I planned a larger party with reception outdoors and it totally poured rain with severe thunderstorms the day of my wedding. We had to go with the indoor rainplan which I was bummed would be too small...but there was way more room than I thought and the lights cast by the stained glass were AMAZING. They do not have a full catering kitchen, which freaked me out. However, I brought in a variety of food trucks (also a potential nighmare with rain) and everything was delicious and great. Their sound system is awesome. Keep in mind that there are only 2 bathroom stalls, so I did see a line of guests waiting, but it wasn't that bad. Loved this venue and would recommend to EVERYONE.

Perfect wedding venue! Great to work with & rental fee goes 100% to the owning non-profit, ACH child & family services. Perfect for Texas weather because equally beautiful receptions can be planned indoors our out. We'd really wanted an outdoor reception but spring skipped our Saturday and at the last minute we moved it indoors - a seamless transition. Our day-of coordinator, Tamesha, was THE BEST. She brought it all together, from our pianist to our DJ to our caterer to corralling family members for photos. Ask for her and you will NOT be disappointed. Definitely recommend renting a 12x12 dance floor and using accent-color overlays (we used Tiffany blue) over white table linens - the color transformed the room. A beautiful wedding venue that I can't recommend enough.

Love this venue! It was soo beautiful and perfect for my vintage themed wedding. The space is very warm and cozy, and the stained glass provided just a bit of drama to add the most beautiful splash of colors as a backdrop! I keep getting compliments on the space from my guests! They loved it! The staff was all top notch and professional, and the property was kept clean and tidy at all times. Julie Brown, my day of coordinator, could not have been a more perfect match for me and my team. She was prompt in all inquiries that I made to her via email and on the phone, and very professional. Loved her! Any vintage bride will fall in love with this venue! Absolutely a must see before making a venue choice in the dfw area! Thank you Belltower!

The Belltower Chapel and Garden - Fort Worth, TX

The venue is BEAUTIFUL and the staff is WONDERFUL!
Everything about our event was just PERFECT!

I recommend this venue over all others. We had searched and searched for the perfect wedding/reception location. My husband wanted to get married in a chapel, I wanted something outdoors. At The Belltower Chapel and Garden, we both got exactly what we wanted! The chapel is one of the prettiest things I've ever seen. Our families loved the stain glass and all the detail. We got so many compliments on how beautiful our wedding was! The great part about it all was that we hardly had to have any decorations, because the venue itself is beautiful!

The staff at The Belltower is so professional and kind. They truly strive to give you everything you've always wanted.

My husband and I's favorite part about this venue was the fact that every single penny you pay, goes directly to a non-profit organization. As we all know, weddings are very expensive, but booking with the venue, you feel good about spending money, because it goes to a GREAT cause!

Amaaaaaaaaazing! We couldn't have been happier with the Belltower. The space is gorgeous and all very reasonably priced when you look at comparable wedding venues in the DFW area. I researched like crazy! We loved that it involves such a great cause, which adds a little special touch to your wedding day. We decided to go with day of coordination and officiant services as well. Again, we couldn't have been happier. Bryan Bellamy and Jody Massey were an absolute pleasure to work with. Bryan did a great job with the ceremony and is just a genuinely nice, kind person. Finding an officiant was a bit of a headache for us (we got stood up by one at our first meeting!), but Bryan eased my fears completely. He routinely emailed or called me to check in and see how things were coming along. Jody was another highlight of the day. I hate that I've forgotten her assistant's name, but she was also very nice and helpful through the entire event! Jody met with us beforehand and helped us finalize our timeline for our vendors. She was so nice and reassuring about things, then everything just went smoothly from there on out! The day of was amazing and I didn't have a thing to worry about. If something went wrong, I had no idea!! Thank you for making our wedding so much more than we could ever have imagined!

I was so pleased with Belltower Chapel! They were attentive through all the process and the day of went extremely smoothly. The venue is GORGEOUS and perfectly sized if you are expecting around 100 people. If you are looking for a church without necessarily the religious aspect, I highly recommend Belltower. They are GREAT!!!

We knew the moment we walked into the Belltower Chapel & Garden that was the place for us to get married. It is such a beautiful facility, and we could not have been happier with our choice!! The chapel is breathtaking, and the staff could not have been nicer or more helpful. Thank you Belltower for making our wedding day truly a dream come true.

Dear Belltower Chapel and Gardens Staff,

We would like to send you the highest praise and humblest thanks for the wonderful venue and service you provided us since the day we had our first consultation and selected you as our wedding venue. We loved that our wedding would be helping contribute to the cause of ACH and loved the history of the campus we were being a part of.

What all did we love about the Belltower? More like what didn't we love! We loved the customer service, the fast and polite responses you gave to our numerous emails, the professionalism of the staff was above and beyond, and the day of our wedding was made perfect by your staff's willingness to help. We loved ya'll and want to let every bride out there looking for 5 star service across the board and a beautiful venue for both the wedding and the reception to please consider and check out the Belltower Chapel and Gardens. You will not regret it! We received so much positive feedback about the selection of our venue as well. Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts for the work that you do through the non-profit and the amazing service you provided that made our wedding so magical. We are forever grateful and will be recommending you whenever we can!

Love,

The Comptons

Great staff! They were so helpful. They help set up, they refilled the food trays and beverages, and they cut the cake. I was so worried about all the little things and trying to find family to do things. They took a lot of stress away by handling things so well! Beautiful stained glass in chapel and reception area. They set up all the tables and chairs how you want, so there is less to set up before the wedding.

Bell Tower Chapel was a beautiful venue. I could not have picked a better place for my daughters wedding. Wendy, Laurie & Hanna were there the whole planning process to answer all my questions and to give sugesstions. Laurie did a great job with the coordination. Thanks again

If I could give them a 10 I would!!! Barbara, Wendy and Hanna were by far the most superior vendor we had. Barbara handled everything that came up..even while she was on vacation...who does that? Barbara that's who. After I saw how well she had everything under control at the rehearsal...I quit worrying and starting enjoying myself...everything came off without a hitch...at one point we realized Mishka had left something in her car and their goes Barbara running in 5 inch heels to retrieve the item...The Belltower Chapel and Gardens is a class act...with old world charm and top notch wedding coordinator's...thanks girls!

Belltower was a great venue with a great cause that was close to both myself and my fiancee. ACH is a great organization and the chapel and garden sit on a picturesque campus in Fort Worth. The area around the venue is a little older but the chapel is from the 1950's so if you are looking for a vintage church atmosphere you've got it. Their rental fees are very reasonable and Dietra, our consultant was amazing. All proceeds go to the ACH non-profit. You have freedom to bring in your own vendors (which is a huge money saver!!) and they are very flexible with how you want your ceremony and reception to feel. If you are creative this is a great place to DIY though the chapel is gorgeous without much extras needed. Would completely recommend the Belltower Chapel and Garden to anyone tying the knot. Beautiful and reasonably priced.

A hidden gem near downtown FW

I luckily didn’t have to look at too many places to decide on a venue. I wanted a place that would have the ceremony and reception all in one. They get super booked here, so make sure to make your reservations as early as possible. My wedding was on a Saturday and there was already an event the evening prior, so I had to move my rehearsal to the morning of Friday instead of the evening, which was a bit inconvenient for some of my wedding party since they all had to travel and therefore a lot were unable to make it to the rehearsal. We also had to pay an extra fee to be allowed into the reception hall an hour earlier than was required in order to have ample time to set everything up before the ceremony. Make sure to take these into consideration before booking at any venue.

Belltower is a beautiful chapel located in Fort Worth, TX. It was the first place we visited when we were looking for a venue and we just felt in love with the place. So, we decided to get married there. It worths every penny. The sanctuary is beautiful and the reception area is also large enough if you have around 70-100 guests. I won't recommend more than 100 guests in the reception area. We were planning to have an outdoor wedding (in the garden area). However, Texas weather in May was awful. So, we decided to move the reception inside, which I did not regret it at all. One thing to keep in mind, if your wedding is on Friday, the package only covers 6 hours. We allocated an hour and a half for the decor and at the last minute we found that it was impossible to do all the decor in an hour. So, we decided to use Belltower service to do some of our decors (the price is depending on the complexity of your design). The staffs were awesome and our coordinator, Cindy, was so helpful. She made sure our big day ran smoothly and organized everything neatly. I would recommend Belltower to anyone who wants to get married and brings home beautiful memories.

The Belltower was a beautiful, picturesque venue for our wedding. The icing on the cake was that it is run by a non-profit that benefits children! The Belltower includes a wedding coordinator with your booking, which was an amazing help! Erika was great and I knew that she was taking care of the details of the wedding so I wouldn't have to worry about it. Highly recommended!

The best wedding venue ever. The chapel is AMAZING and the stained glass windows are breath-taking!!
They still need to work on some renovation to include a sink in the kkitchen and provide running water.
Definitely the ideal wedding location!!

My now husband and I got married at the Belltower Chapel & Gardens in the chapel and had our reception outdoors in the garden. We were both extremely pleased with our experience and had several guests ask how we found such a gem of a venue. Not only is the venue alone just breathtaking, but they allow outside vendors and catering. The price is also very reasonable, especially compared to other venues in the DFW area. Trust me, I did a LOT of research! Laurie, the wedding coordinator, went above and beyond to assure we had a pleasant experience and make sure everything was in place and ready to go. She really takes away a lot of stress! I would do it all over again at this venue in a heartbeat!

They have an awesome 'Kiss Package' that comes with literally everything but the centerpieces, dress, and music. If you're planning something small (up to 75 people) this is a great alternative to the Justice of the Peace wedding :)

The Belltower was absolutely beautiful for our wedding. Because it is run by a non-profit (ACH Family & Child Services) their price was very good for the area that we were looking for. We had originally planned for an outdoor wedding, but had to move everything inside at the last minute due to heavy storms. Rebecca, my coordinator, was extremely helpful and worked out everything. The only issue I had was the very picky rules - we were not allowed to bring in ANYTHING or WALK into the Chapel before 4pm on the day of, or we had to pay for extra hours. It was a little difficult, but the wedding turned out beautiful!

This venue is beautiful and a great value. The chapel is stunning on its own with stain glasses windows so little decor is needed. The Garden is beautiful at night with lights stung overhead, perfect ambiance. Venue is associated with a nonprofit organization so knowing that part of the cost of the wedding is going to a good cause makes the pain of paying for a wedding hurt a little less. They provide a day of coordinator, For us that was Candice and she was amazing from start to finish. Highly recommend this venue.

We loved having the wedding at the Bell Tower. It was absolutely beautiful and the staff was great. We used the venors that they recommend and it worked out very well. We highly recommend it to any couple wanting to marry in the Ft. Worth area.

Beautiful place to get married. Stained glass windows and chapel setting made it feel like the church I grew up in.
Our coordinator made sure everything went off without a hitch and there were a few. But, overall it was a great experience and I would recommend it to others looking to "DIY".
Looking back, we'd have rather had more time up front to get things in to the chapel/reception area. And, it is a very tight squeeze. We were pushing 160 guests and had 15 round tables and two 6 foot tables for the Bridal party. There was room for a dance floor and the buffet tables and bar, but it was pretty tight.

This was a beautiful place. It has options to do the ceremony inside or outside as well as the reception. which is great because Texas weather is very unpredictable. I had my ceremony in side and the reception outside in the garden. It was beautiful.

The venue is amazing! It has everything you want for a wedding ceremony inside the chapel with stain glass windows and beautiful a beautiful ceiling and baby grand piano. I’m addition, it has a gorgeous garden area outside that we used for the reception. The pictures turned out great and you can use any vendors you like. The downside is that they are not too accommodating for the vendors. They do not have a kitchen for the caterers and the ice machine is only for their employees. You have to wait until 8 weeks before the wedding to be assigned a wedding day coordinator and you cannot get in the venue any earlier than your assigned event time to decorate.

I had my own wedding planner, but their day of coordinator worked well with her. I added time before and after the wedding which they were good doing. It's a pain they book two weddings on Saturday so your vendors can't get in really early to set up but the beauty and the cause make it worth the time crunch. The fire alarms went off at the other buildings during our cocktail hour so that caused some confusion and some "residents" tried to sneak into our wedding which my planner handled and I didn't even know about till later but both caused some annoyance and frustration so I deducted quality of service and professionalism rating.

The venue is beautiful. I loved the look. I only really have 2 complaints. First that the music was not loud enough in the reception. We used the ipod option but you could not hear the music and they would not let us turn it up. My second complaint is that we left one hour before our rental period was up, so my family would have time to clean up. When they went in from seeing us off, the tables had already been cleared. Everyone's food was thrown out (weather they were finished with it or not) All the table decorations were thrown away (and I wanted to keep some!) and they were already cleaning up. There was still an hour left, they had no business touching anything yet. Also all our info cards for how to share digital photos with us were gone, so no one shared pictures with us, and my brother's camera was missing when he came back in from seeing us off. I must have been thrown out with the decorations. My grandma still complains that she only got one bite of cake because hers was thrown away. Everything else was great. Our coordinator, Meagan was really nice. The venue was set and ready for us when we got there, and it was beautiful. I just wish we could have heard the music and that our things were not thrown out.

This is a gorgeous and fairly well priced venue. All the profits go to ACH family and child protective services, so I felt better about spending as much as I did. They are very bare bones - they provide tables and chairs, but everything else is rented or requested from a vendor that you book. You do have to have liability insurance. They assign a "wedding coordinator" for you approx 6 weeks prior to the wedding. They do not do anything except plan your day of timeline. Mine was super sweet, but not very responsive. It took 3-4 days to get an email or response back from her. She did type up a timeline for us that was helpful to send out to my bridal party, DJ, etc. They do have a bar on wheels you can use for your bartender/alcohol vendor. They have gorgeous cafe lights strung up in the courtyard and the outdoor reception was beautiful. I did not put any decor in the chapel as I felt it was breathtaking all on its own. Overall, I would recommend.

The chapel and reception area are beautiful! We had an indoor wedding and reception (due to it being in April and who knows what the weather will do) but did take photos out in the garden area, it is very well kept and pretty. Everything went well and I was overall happy with the exception of the wedding coordinator. I would recommend asking for someone else if Angee Woods is assigned to your wedding! Things started off rocky by her not being available to meet until the Sunday before my wedding to go over any details. Every day I said I was available she said she was busy or couldn't drive from Dallas because of the traffic. She did not contact the cake vendor or photographer with the floor plan and itinerary for the day like she said, so wedding day the cake shows up and the lady has no idea what's going on. During the wedding setup Angee came up to me and said she was leaving to go get dressed and would be back, so when the cake, photographer and caterer show up she is no where to be found! That is the whole reason she is there is to COORDINATE all of that!! The photographer was in my room asking me what times we are doing things (which was the coordinator's responsibility) because I had no idea. She was very rude and disrespectful to my step-dad and several other guests. We were rushed out of the reception even after I told her we were not ready to make our exit yet, she proceeded to make the announcement for everyone to go outside. I did call and talk to Marsha, she was very nice and listened to what my issues were and didn't just blow me off. So yes I would recommend the chapel and reception area but definitely NOT Angee as your coordinator.

While the overall service was very good. Wendy Abrams really was very unprofessional in the end. She was never involved in the entire process with us and then withheld some of our deposit. In her letter she said one of the groomsmen did something to their sound system. When in reality there sound system wasn't working correctly so one of the groomsmen asked if he could try and repair it. He didn't and we actually had to turn it off during the ceremony since it wasn't working. She sent me a ltr stating they would have to call someone and have them come out and repair the system. In actuality they should have given us a discount instead of taking some of my deposit. Makes you wonder if Wendy always try to figure out a way to take some deposit. Really took away from a wonderful , joyous occasion that just hurts Bell Tower.

If I could redo my wedding, it would not be at Belltower. Staff was extremely short and caddy with us; I have emails showing their sarcastic tone. Once we met the wedding coordinator (Dietra), we thought she was amazing an our first meeting went well. Then day of rehearsal, she let us down...Our rehearsal was 5-6pm, around 5:50, we were still in there and she says, "not to kick you out, but my 6:00 is here so I'm going to ask you all to leave" :( umm, we weren't done?? So we walked out with questions. The day of, the wedding was just hectic, which I understood to a point. Dietra was almost miserable to work with the day of, which put the whole bridal party in a funk. She also miss pronounced names and announced the men to come for the bouquet toss. Just a few things kept getting messed up and she seemed unable to handle situations.

In all, I wish I was married somewhere else; pretty unfortunate to think about that.

The chapel is truly beautiful and our daughters wedding was gorgeous. The problems were with the coordinator and her rudeness to guest. They are EXTREMELY picky. Guest were standing by the stain glass and told to not get too close--rude. They watch everyone like they are criminals-unprofessional. Kitchen sucks and be ware when you see the venue they DO NOT make a point of telling you there is NO SINK in the so called prep room. Even in the contract when it describes the prep room they mention refrigerator and tables but not a sink. For goodness sake add a sink . We asked and they said well you can use the tiny janitors closet which was filthy and a mess. Her help as coordinator was ok but she definitely needs some training in how to deal with people professionally. We had to tell her way too much right before the wedding , during and especially through the reception. And we had already gone over everything in detail. The girl who was helping her was totally unhelpful. The time frame they a lot you is next to impossible to set up, have the wedding, reception and then clean up very fast to get out of there in time. We even "bought" an extra hour and still were rushed. Which that in itself is totally a scam. Just give people that extra hour in their time frame, instead of using it to make more money. Beware of what they tell you, it changes once you have given them all the money then it doesn't matter because you are stuck. A coordinator is supposed to pretty much be in charge so the mother of the Bride can enjoy the day. I had to work my tail off along with several other family members. You don't get enough bang for the buck. Also if they have a wedding the night before your wedding you can not use the chapel for your rehearsal. They are not accommodating enough to warrant the price they charge. DON'T LET THE NEATNESS OF THE CHAPEL MAKE YOUR DECISION ALONE.

Throughout the wedding, and until a week or two after, I could not have said enough about this venue (in fact, the glowing review below is from my wife, the day after the wedding). The location is beautiful, and the staff are seemingly helpful. That was, until I discovered that they weren't refunding my deposit. When I asked why, I was informed that we were in violation of their alcohol policy. What they meant by this was: Although we did not serve alcohol, and informed them that they would not need to provide security after all (they kept the money for the security guards anyway), their coordinator informed my groomsmen that they could drink, as long as it was kept to the back room. So, my groomsmen opened a bottle of Scotch they were saving for after the wedding, and quietly enjoyed a drink. The coordinator who informed them of this, then indicated on the assessment of the event that we had violated their policy, and had my mother in law sign it, not realizing she was signing a confession.

We treated this venue with respect, and no one is indicating that there was ever alcohol in the main room, or that my groomsmen caused any disturbance. It's just an excuse to keep our deposit.

When I asked how this was reasonable, I was informed that, as someone who has served in the Army, I should understand policies and personal responsibility. I certainly do. And as a soldier, I also understand when persons in authority twist policies to take advantage of you. I just never expected to be swindled on my wedding day.

I will always get to remember this, not as the joyous occasion it should have been, but as the day I got robbed in Texas.

You only have one chance for a perfect wedding, be sure you don't make the mistake of having it here, or if you do, keep your eyes open for how you will be taken advantage of.

The venue is beautiful but that is about it.. The coordinators were worthless and continued to get in the way of the setup crew. The facility only has TWO bathrooms! How is that even functionable for 100+ guests. They do not offer a kitchen prep area or even a sink of poor water out into for the caters. We had to use the bathroom sink with a small pitcher to get water to fill the chaffing dishes. It took longer and if they provided us with a sink or even a faucet outside would have made the job move along faster. Their 'room' they have for the catering use is pointless. There are notes all over the room telling the catering to not do this and to not do that. Seriously! How can you prepare or even get things set up if you cant put a pan on their provided tables.. They will not work with you if you are needing water supply outside for setting up. They did not allot any decent amount of time before the ceromy to decorate and would not work with us. They gave us TWO hours to prepare for a wedding for 100+ guest. I would not recommend this place except for the beauty of the facitily. The staff is extremely rude and everything we wanted to do was a direct answer of 'NO'.
