Information You Can Use For Wedding Planning:

When choosing a wedding package it is advisable to consider several matters, especially if you are planning a Saturday ceremony, if you are having attendants, or if quite a few guests will be attending your wedding.  Some packages allow half-hour time periods in the chapel, others have a full hour time allowance.  There are some limitations related to the number of guests which can be adequately handled in a half-hour package.  We encourage you to speak with one of our wedding coordinators about these things.  They will happily assist you in assuring your wedding ceremony is a satisfying and joyous experience for everyone.

Getting Married in Gatlinburg
at Our Wedding Chapel - An Affordable Wedding

 Your Destination Wedding Can Cost Much Less
Than One At Home!

             Thousands of couples are learning how affordable a destination wedding in Gatlinburg can be, especially when compared to the cost they may incur at home.  Getting married at The Wedding Chapel in the Glades, Gatlinburg’s elegant log chapel, is preferred for several reasons, such as planning, size, and location.

            Just planning a wedding is difficult.  Where to begin?  Who shall I contact as my resources and for all costs involved?  By getting married in our chapel, we take all of these matters off your shoulders and putting you at ease.  Our chapel consultants make your wedding planning affordable and worry free.

            Another concern for weddings at home is their size.  Oftentimes the guest list just keeps growing – and so does the price tag!  A destination wedding allows you to control the important guest count facet of your wedding that very directly affects overall costs.  Our chapel has specific packages designed for certain numbers of guests.  Our consultants can also customize a wedding package for you to suit your particular desire and budget.

            The location of a wedding is another determining factor in pricing.  Planning a wedding at home means deciding on who’s church, the brides or the grooms, or neither.  Then there is the reception location to decide on and perhaps the rehearsal dinner.  Our chapel staff can plan your entire wedding and reception with price typically running much less than it would at home.  Plus, we have weddings down to a science and there is no need for a rehearsal, hence, there is no need for a rehearsal dinner.

            Pre-packaged weddings with receptions, honeymoon accommodations and more, has proven to be the affordable way to get married.  Naturally the fewer amenities in a package will hold costs down, while increasing package content will increase the price. However, these package prices remain much more reasonable than at-home weddings.
