We Have Both A Fully Seasonally Decorated Outdoor & Indoor Country Chapel Wedding Setting
Reasons Why Couples come to our Chapel
1. Many Couples do not want the problems of a large wedding, due to the costs or it is their second marriage.
2. Many Couples just want to celebrate their marriage with a real wedding and go to a restaurant or home for a small gathering. No big reception.
3. Many Couples want immediate family only for the ceremony and a large reception for friends after.
4. Many Couples don't want the headache of setting up a backyard wedding when everything is here.
5. Many Couples will hold a ceremony here for family and friends who can not go to a destination wedding or after their destination ceremony and get a Canadian marriage certificate.
6. Many Couples are dissatisfied with the Church and still want a religious wedding without all the regulations and requirements such as marriage courses. Or don't have a Church at all and still want an Ordained Minister to conduct and bless their wedding.
7. Mixed culture and religions create their own problems and Couples just want a wonderful ceremony without the Church or family problems.
8. Blended families may not be able to get married at the church due to divorce and conversion issues.
9. Many Couples are simply wanting to get married after years of hard work in getting their home and now have children to think of.
10. Many Senior Couples who have lived together for years just want to settle their estates to prevent issues that may arise due health, but want a wedding to express their love for each other in a deeper way.
11. The drive to city hall in city traffic is worse then driving to the Chapel
12. Many locations & Officiants that say they provide our services, have to deal with parking problems, like downtown, public play grounds next to them during your ceremony, being on a main street noise, going to parks where their is a crowd or permit needed (at a high price for you), driving distance and so much more.

The reasons for not having a City hall Wedding
• Why wait in line in full wedding attire indoors for your wedding day when you and your loved one can be surrounded by nature, relaxing in a outdoor country setting only minutes from Ottawa City Hall or your Courthouse. Remember its first come first serve at the City Hall, so there is no guarantee you will be married. You must book in person also, just give us a call or email us for a booking and come for a visit if you wish. A planned wedding is offered with music to come down the aisle on your big day.
• Why just be a number when there are over 900 weddings performed at Ottawa City Hall or your Courthouse during the summer months when you can make your wedding special here at our Chapel inside or outdoor. With a couple who will treat you special. Ottawa City Hall is open only for a three short hours Friday and Saturday if staff is available.
• Why just ask a few people to your Wedding when you can invite more than the five that City Hall or your Courthouse allows. Come to a Chapel that is beautifully seasonally decorated for your big day inside or outdoor, not just a plain office room where you are allowed only twenty minutes for your big day with a 7 minute ceremony.
• Why travel to a park after your wedding for those special outdoor pictures when you are already surrounded by lovely gardens and scenic landscapes at our Wedding Chapel. Experience a special day for your wedding at nearly the same cost as an Ottawa City Hall marriage. And the parking is free.
• Why just have a 7 minute Civil wedding ceremony at the City Hall when your big day is more then that. Have the choice of a specialized civil or religious wedding ceremony. When your officiant is a ordained minister. We offer three wedding ceremonies Civil a Non-Denominational and our Catholic/Anglican. Have a wedding ceremony that is important to you with music to walk down the aisle and all the other wedding traditions.
• Why spend driving and paying for parking downtown three times when you can have an outdoor country wedding just minutes from Ottawa City Hall or your Courthouse. Remember it's one trip to get your licence, a second trip to book your wedding and a third to have your ceremony. Everything must be done in person at the downtown City Hall.
• Why just have a part time city official to perform your wedding when you can have personal care given by an experienced wedding officiant & minister who has conducted 100's of weddings for years. Be with a Couple who personally built a Chapel especially for you on your wedding day. A Chapel totally unique in the Ottawa Valley.
• Why wait for the City Hall to say when your wedding day is. When our Chapel is open everyday and evenings, all year round and even on Statutory Holidays and Sundays when the City Hall is closed. Choose your day here at THE STABLE.
We are 35 minutes from the City Hall just down the
Prince of Wales Drive
Why not come to The Stable where everything is here for you.

From experience I know Couples are nervous about memorizing vows and where to go next in the ceremony. Don't worry, I lead you through everything, just enjoy and relax. Remember you don't have to remember anything.
Just remember City Hall conducts 800 to 900 weddings a year and mostly during the peak wedding season, you may never get the date that is important to you and your family.
Have a wedding not just a ceremony at our Chapel.
