Built in 1907, The Ottawa Wedding Chapel is located in a quiet residential neighborhood just south of the Illinois River. The chapel was purchased in 1998 to provide a non-denominational sanctuary for couples seeking a spiritual place to exchange their wedding vows. Our chapel is quaint with a warmth and appeal that one immediately appreciates upon arrival. Couples are encouraged to participate in creating their own unique ceremony with the help of Paul Rockey or other clergy. All religious affiliations are accepted. Referrals are available for photographers, invitations, videographers, florists, wedding rental equipment and supplies, formal wear, limousine services, cakes, entertainment, travel services and accommodations.
