From the reviews

I absolutely enjoyed working with Patti. My husband and I got married here a few months ago and we had a lovely, small, and very intimate wedding! I worked with Patti to plan it all out and she was very helpful.

★★★★★ — Nic, Nov 2020

Patti exceeded our expectations so much that I wish I could give 10 stars! We were originally planning on getting married at the courthouse, but with a week to go to our appointment I found out we would have just too many people and someone would be left out.

★★★★★ — Sarah, Jul 2023

We had a wonderful experience with Bendora Wedding Gallery! Patti was excellent and created a stress-free environment, which was much appreciated because we planned our ceremony in 2 weeks! The indoor space is beautifully pre-decorated with natural sunlight from the windows.

★★★★★ — Christie, Dec 2022

I bought my wedding dress at the worn once event and they were amazing and helpful and I had a whole room to myself to decide and try on dresses. They even helped me get into the dress and fix it to make it look more realistic for the day of to help with the decision and also allowed me to hold the dress and come in…

Getting married at The Bendora Wedding Chapel

The Bendora Wedding Chapel comes up for weddings — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the tour worth it. First, see the garden at the time of day and season you'd actually get married — a garden that glows at golden hour in June can look very different at noon in March, so ask what's in bloom for your date and walk the path your guests take from parking to ceremony to reception. Second, bring your real questions: the rain plan (where does the ceremony move, and does it hold everyone?), shade and bugs for a summer afternoon, the catering and bar policy, the music curfew, and exactly what's included — tables, chairs, setup, and teardown are where quotes quietly diverge. Popular garden dates book 12–18 months out, so if the tour feels right, ask what's open in your season before you leave.
