How does a wedding chapel differ from a regular wedding venue or church?
A wedding venue is any place where a wedding can be hosted. A wedding chapel is a "one-stop shop," so to speak, where weddings and elopements are exclusively performed by on-site officiants. Wedding chapels differ from churches in that they offer a secular (non-religious) setting. Are your ceremonies legal? Yes. Our wedding ceremonies are 100% legal and binding per Maine state law. What's required to get married in Maine? You don't need to be a resident of Maine to get married here, but both parties must be over the age of 18 and have acquired a marriage license from the state of Maine. The ceremony must be witnessed by two people other than the officiant, and the marriage license must then be signed by the officiant and both witnesses. |
