How Do I Order Flowers and How Are They Delivered to the Chapel?

You are responsible for ordering flowers and all other decorations for your wedding. In addition, you are responsible for the actual decorating of the chapel and removing all decorations after the service. It is wise therefore to designate someone to make sure it is decorated to your satisfaction, and then to make sure that the chapel is restored to its original state after the service. This is important for two reasons. Religious services go on constantly throughout the academic year. Thus, it very likely that a regularly scheduled service may will follow your wedding. Also, OCRL incurs a fee if Facilities and Maintenance must clean up debris and decorations from such a service. We therefore have to pass that fee on to the couple.

When you have selected your florist, please advise him/her that deliveries begin one hour prior to the beginning of your service and that the florist should enter the chapel through the Prospect Street entrance ONLY.
