Amazing wedding

Thank you so much for organizing and setting up everything for our wedding! Our big day felt so special and went so smoothly with all your help. Having our wedding coordinator Kim saved us so much stress and it was a pleasure for her to be a part of it all. I would definitely recommend this venue for anyone who’s looking for an intimate wedding without much planning on their part offered at a reasonable price.

The most beautiful wedding thanks to Kim and her team

This was the first and only venue that my (now) husband and I toured. Kim and her team were amazing from start to finish and helped to make our wedding day so special and exactly what we were hoping for.
We booked for 8 hours and ended up with time to spare by doing a noon start time, 3:30 ceremony, and 7:00 send-off. We didn't serve a meal but decided to hire the kitchen staff and day of coordinator - best thing we could have done! I also recommend using Market Street for catering and Meghann for hair!
A huge thank you to everyone at the Chapel at Chestnut Square for making our wedding day so amazing!

Outstanding!

The Chapel at Chestnut Square was an amazing venue for my daughter’s wedding. Kim was so easy to work with, so helpful, and so knowledgeable. Not only did I book the venue, but I hired Kim and her staff to do kitchen service, day of coordination and the decor. Everything was perfect! It was so nice to not have to think on the wedding day. Kim communicated well with all of the vendors and everything was seamless. She even gave my daughter and I a look at all of the decor before the wedding started as she said the bride and mother get so busy they miss noticing all of the decorations. I would highly recommend Chestnut Square along with Kim’s services for a wedding.m

Beautiful!

This venue was so amazing. It was so beautiful and l couldn’t have chosen a better one myself. You get a whole square to yourself (chapel, bridal suite, pavilion, reception building). The staff, (in particular) Kim and Missy, were amazing! Kim was fantastic with communicating, when my husband and/or myself had ANY questions whatsoever. Missy was there to help us out during the rehearsal dinner and the entire wedding. She was just so great! I understand how stressful it can be to try and make everything so as smoothly as possible on such a big day, but Missy made sure everything was taken care of in ways I didn’t even think about. I’m so happy to have chosen this venue and I’m so thrilled to brag about the amazing, A1 staff there! It was a brilliant setting to celebrate my husband’s and I’d special day with friends and family. 🤍

My big day

The day me and my husband toured this place we knew this was it for our wedding. I always wanted to get married in a little white chapel. The area is small, intimate, and beautiful. This venue is great for small or large groups. It was a pleasure working with Kim. She answered all my questions in a timely manner and delivered on decor. Everyone talked bout how our theme and everything matched to a T. Kim was a huge help day of the wedding. We ran behind in a few things but was no prob. I had nothing but a great experience here.
