“The most beautiful wedding venue if you wish to get married in a Victorian church.”

From the reviews

We got married here last week. Gorgeous chapel. Very helpful staff. A perfect setting for an intimate wedding.

Beautiful Wedding Ceremony location. As a wedding photographer, I was very happy to photograph here because of the excellent lighting conditions. It's so unique and charming, the family photos after the ceremony took place right outside with a lovely view of Port Gamble Bay in the back. ForeverProductions.us.

The most beautiful wedding venue if you wish to get married in a Victorian church. Port Gamble is a picturesque town by the water with beautiful trees either in Spring or Autumn. I would highly recommend using Celebrations By Amber for your coordinator and/or officiant.

Very beautiful old timey church. Intimate and traditional. I really liked the beautiful ceiling inlays and cast iron light fixtures. The seating is definitely the traditional uncomfortable wooden pews I remember from childhood LOL. I would reccomend only for short ceremonies hahahaha.

Getting married at St. Paul's Church

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.
