The best wedding ever

The entire process was amazing from start to finish. I was super grateful as we were coming from out of state as I’m sure most of their clients do. Alexis made everything so easy and was professional and they even sent us a Christmas card several months after our wedding. If we could do it all over again, we’d still choose the same venue. We loved how our photos turned out, how close the venue is to the beach, and even security guard played along in some of our groom photos like he was their personal security. Because the venue is so close to the beach we were able to sneak away and get amazing beach photos without having a beach wedding. Tybee is one of my family’s favorite spots and it was so special to get married on the island we love so much!! Thank you for a perfect day!

Absolutely stunning, highly recommend

Everything was an easy flow on our big day, venue is a must, very classy. I love the fact we were able to take pictures outside, on the staircase, the changing rooms while bride and groom were getting ready. Everything was perfect.

My husband and I rented the Wedding Chapel last June and it was perfect. Coming from California and booking everything on the phone, the staff was helpful professional.

Best Local Venue!!

I looked at a few popular wedding venues in Savannah, and The Tybee Island Wedding Chapel was hands down the most flexible, the most lenient, and easy to work with. The whole experience felt like working with real people and not a big corporation. A few things that really stood out: being able to bring your own alcohol/bartender (this saved me thousands compared to what other venues quoted me for a premium open bar), touring the venue twice (they were so patient with me), adding extra time for set up/clean up, and a very flexible rehearsal the day before. The chapel, cocktail lounge, and ballroom are perfectly placed for guests to transition downstairs while you take photos. Your photographer will love the natural lighting and plethora of greenery available throughout the property. The ballroom is massive and easily accommodated a full buffet, 10-15 tables, and a generous dance floor. Parking is available right outside the venue.

Amazing venue!

This was my dream wedding venue and was so perfect for my wedding earlier this month! Alexis was so easy to work with throughout the planning process. The value for the money is excellent and I enjoyed the convenience of having the reception and ceremony spaces so close to each other. The entire chapel is beautiful and picturesque and was a beautiful backdrop for our photos! Reception space is spacious with lovely high ceilings and the chapel for the ceremony is absolutely gorgeous. 10/10 recommend this venue!

Made my dream wedding a reality

I cannot say enough positive things about this venue. The venue itself is beautiful, I remember never wanting to leave the chapel because I wanted more time to take it all in. The staff is very organized and always on top of things. Already readily available. I 10/10 recommend this venue to anyone thinking of a chapel wedding!

Jan 2023 wedding planned

Being local I was familiar with all venues for wedding in and near Savannah. After visiting the 4 top ones on short list we choose Tybee Wedding Chapel. Reasons included beautiful and actually requires minimal additional decoration to create a beautiful wedding reception. Requirements if venue simple no major hoops to overcome. Parking is great, time rental gives plenty of time for set up and take down. Grooms and brides room very nice. Separate bar area from main reception hall. Both indoor and outdoor settings will be beautiful photography backdrops. We are doing off season wedding so traffic and accommodation if guest want to stay overnight very reasonable (no so when u get closer to city of Savannah. After doing a true cost benefit value comparing all 4 short list venue on price, location, parking, best facility to host both wedding and reception in one location, catering facilities, bar area, Tybee Wedding Chapel was the most cost effective.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.

Tybee Island Wedding Chapel is such a beautiful venue on the island. It is definitely the total package with a beautiful chapel that then leads your guests into a wonderful reception area! The staff is great to work with and they are always on top of everything. Such a wonderful Venue!!!

Heather Kline Photography Heather Kline Photography Wedding Photographers

The Tybee Island Wedding Chapel is a truly beautiful venue. The chapel itself hearkens back to old country churches, but has a very modern elegant feel. And what's better is there are rooms on-location for the bridal party to get ready in! The reception room is just off the chapel, so there is no need to travel in between. Ray and Carla are just wonderful people who are kind, helpful, and communicative, and make sure everything on the wedding day is organized ahead of time for all the vendors, ensuring a smooth wedding day for all the families and couples who choose to be married at Tybee. What's more, is with the beautiful grounds around the chapel, and Tybee Island North Beach just down the road, couples have a ton of options for a variety of photos! Definitely a lovely location for any bride!
