My husband and I are so pleased with the quality of dedicated customer service provided to us from the first meeting to the unforgettable day of our wedding. Truly, the responsiveness, professionalism and overall care of the staff whomever we dealt with, was bar none. I especially appreciated the call from Kait, the Senior Event Manager, days prior to our ceremony to finalize details to ensure the timeline was correct and we had not forgotten anything, allowing our ceremony to be seamless and as beautiful as it was. We are grateful.University of Maryland Memorial Chapel's reply:

We decided to have a mini-mony at the Garden Chapel. It was a great experience we had with our parents and my two aunts, which we had the honor of one of them marrying us. We had to cancel a day before due to unforeseen circumstances, but the chapel staff were so accommodating and quickly helped reschedule the ceremony the following week. They made it simple and stress-free! They were also so sweet and had such a positive aura. I gave them a list of the ceremonial order and included when to play the songs I selected and they followed it to a T! Great experience overall :) -

My experience at the Memorial Chapel was excellent. The staff, made my wedding extremely memorable. They are patient, kind and accommodating. They were there to answer any questions, any time of the day and night! I knew I was in great hands from day one! The Chapel manager and the three ladies there to assist me are super professional and knowledgeable. You can tell that they love their jobs because they make it super easy for the bride and groom to have the best day of their life. And how could I forget to mention the beauty of the Chapel - both sides, the Main and the Garden. Either space doesn't need much decorating, it's beauty speaks for itself. I highly recommend having your wedding at the Memorial Chapel. -

Planning a wedding during a global pandemic was very stressful. However, Mel Coles, Event Sales, and Office Assistant, UMD Memorial Chapel, helped make our wedding day memorable for my husband and me.
From our first phone conversation, she was honest regarding the university's COVID-19 guidelines and kept me posted as she and Denise Lorraine McHugh worked behind the scenes to get our date approved. Mel recommended vendors and was very hands-on throughout the entire planning process. On the day of the wedding, she went above and beyond to make sure my day was perfect. From rolling out my aisle runner, making sure I had the right music, to ensuring my 20 guests felt welcomed and safe, Mel was terrific. Her attention to detail was also a bonus.
If you are looking for a beautiful venue with impeccable customer service, I highly recommend the UMD Memorial Chapel to host your wedding. -

As Terps, we were so lucky to be married in Memorial Chapel! The space is stunning and the space and gardens do not need much in terms of decor. We worked with Mel, and she is hands down the best thing that happened to us! She was professional, prompt, caring, communicative, and knowledgeable. Mel checked in with us every step of the way, made recommendations, and truly worked to make our day one to remember. You won't be disappointed! -

My husband and I utilized the main chapel and we could not have been any happier. The venue itself is beautiful and can accommodate very large groups. Unfortunately, due to COVID, we were limited to only 40 guest. However, the venue went out of their way to ensure that guests felt welcomed, while still following proper COVID procedures. All of the coordinators that we worked with prior to the wedding and during the day of were fantastic. They made sure that everything went as smoothly as possible, and as a type A kind of bride, I was extremely impressed. All in all, I would definitely recommend this venue to other couples! -

Mel and Denise were so great at making sure we had the best wedding experience even during Covid. We had our wedding Aug. 2020 and it was still very beautiful and came out better then I could have planned. Originally we weren't sure if it would be better to cancel and wait it out but I am so glad we didn't! We kept our date, still had a great wedding at the best venue and was able to start our forever! ❤️ -

Great Team to work with
We had a great wedding at UMD Memorial Chapel! I planned the entire wedding from Texas and Denise and Mel were great with communication via email and phone leading up to the wedding. They were also great to work with for changes due to COVID. We are so glad we chose this location for our wedding! -
