Weddings at Amelia Plantation Chapel
-
As part of its mission, Amelia Plantation Chapel seeks to minister to those who desire to be married in the Christian faith. The Chapel is an interdenominational community church with an active membership and staff. Weddings are conducted as part of our ministry to our congregation and the community. While we wish to serve those who desire to be married at the Chapel, whether or not they are members, our buildings and grounds are not rented for outside use.

All weddings are the responsibility of the Pastor, the Reverend Ted Schroder, who will officiate.
Other clergy are welcome to participate in the ceremony as guests. The wedding liturgy is provided by the Pastor.
Premarital counseling is required, either with the Pastor or another counselor or minister.

The Chapel Wedding Director - Antoinette Schroder (antoinettesch@bellsouth.net) is responsible for helping the bride
with all arrangements. No other wedding director or consultant is permitted to function in the Chapel.
Mrs. Schroder is in charge of the disposition of the wedding party, the family and guests, the photographer and the florist. The bride is required to meet with her before the wedding to go over all details and expectations.

The Chapel Organist - Peter Deane (chapelorganist@gmail.com) is responsible for all music
