Registry Office Weddings & Elopements
Before The Adelaide Wedding Chapel was opened, couples wanting a small private ceremony or an elopement could always get married in the Adelaide Registry Office in the City and can still do so during limited office hours.
The Adelaide Wedding Chapel at Holden Hill is a purpose built venue that allows couples to have a small intimate marriage ceremony 0r just a simple wedding, in a delightful setting that can be set-up to reflect couples beliefs and sentiments.
The chapel is open 7 days a week from 8.00Am to 8.00Pm and is ideal for an elopement ceremony, a legal ceremony in Australia prior to an overseas wedding or just something simple with a few family and friends.
More elaborate, yet simple and basic ceremonies are also available. You set your standards and a ceremony will be created to suit your requirements.
Same Sex Couples are welcomed by Adelaide Marriage Celebrant Tony Nolan to utilise the chapel for their own unique and personalised marriage
