The wedding site

On Saturday, Jeff and I went to see the chapel for the first time. It was a bit of a trial finding a church that would allow us to get married during Lent. Fortunately, Queen of Apostles is run by Marianist priests, several of whom are affiliated with UD, and whom tend to not get caught up in some of the frivolities of the religion. Fr. Gene (for all my UD friends) is also a regular priest there, so having him marry us will be super convenient there.

We started our tour in the chapel and it is pretty great. There are a couple pictures sprinkled throughout the website if you want an idea of the look; it is a simple and intimate little chapel that will meet our needs perfectly. Deacon Greg, who kind of runs the joint, gave us a little bit of history about the church and the community, and we both really like that although it is a Catholic parish, they pretty much welcome everyone with open arms. Afterwards, we took a little stroll on the Bergamo property. It is GORGEOUS. It is perfect for both of us.
