Testimonials

My husband and I recently got married here and had the most amazing experience. The space was absolutely beautiful, super clean and located in a very quiet area. Lexy made planning so easy and our day extra special. We couldn't be more thankful for Lexy and our officiant who were arguably some of the sweetest people we have ever come across. We both are so thankful we came across The White Velvet Chapel and wish we could relive this day 1000 times.

My husband and I eloped at the White Velvet Chapel in May and it was just the most fantastic experience! White Velvet is so clean, in a quiet neighborhood, and aesthetically so so beautiful! Lexi was just incredible from start to finish, booking and planning was easy and fuss free, but the attention to detail for the wedding itself was just perfect. We couldn't be more grateful to Lexi, and to our amazing officiant for making our day so special, we added little touches and a very big surprise too! Thank you thank you thank you, I wish we could do it all over again!
