From the reviews

I highly recommend the Galveston Wedding Chapel! Nathan and his staff are wonderful. We had planned a beach wedding, but Mother Nature had other ideas. As we were crossing the street we were caught by a sandstorm, followed by a thunderstorm. I was disappointed as I was looking forward to our photos on the beach.

We had a beautiful wedding with our friends and family. It was a stress free experience!!! We loved every minute and could not have asked for a better day. Nathan helped guide us through the day. It was so easy! We have perfect picutres to share the memories forever.

★★★★★ — Benesha, Jun 2018

I had my ceremony on March 30th, 2019 and words cannot describe how satisfied I felt after leaving the property. Nathan has been excellent throughout the ceremony and made our day run smoothly and was very elegant. I highly recommend this wedding chapel to anyone looking at a Galveston wedding.

★★★★★ — Chandra, Apr 2019

Nathan at the Galveston Wedding Chapel made our wedding day the most memorable and special occasion ever. His attention to detail & photographic expertise created the perfect beach wedding which was an excellent start to our tropical honeymoon. Thank you Nathan for a job well done.

Getting married at Galveston Wedding Chapel

Two things make the tour worth the drive. First, see the ceremony spot at the exact time of day you'd say your vows — a west-facing beach glows at sunset but bakes at noon, and you'll want to feel the wind, watch where the sun sits, and walk the path your guests take across the sand. Second, bring your real questions: the weather backup (where does the ceremony move if it rains or the wind kicks up?), who pulls the beach permit, the sound-ordinance curfew, the catering and bar policy, and exactly what's included — chairs, setup, and teardown on sand are where quotes quietly diverge. Peak beach dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
