The Chapel by the Sea welcomes weddings of different sizes, from intimate celebrations to events of up to 220 guests. Minimums and package pricing can vary based on your date, guest count, selections, and availability, so the best next step is to contact our team for a current quote for your celebration.
Absolutely. A smaller guest list doesn't mean a smaller celebration. Our small weddings include everything you'd expect — ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner, toasts, and dancing. In fact, many couples find the party feels warmer and more energetic with a room full of people who all know each other.
An elopement centers on just the two of you, sometimes with a witness or two, while a small wedding includes a guest list of family and friends — typically anywhere from a handful to around seventy-five people — with a full ceremony and reception. If you're leaning toward just the two of you, our Savannah elopement page is the better fit. Our coordinators are happy to help you decide.
It depends on your numbers and your vision. The chapel is ideal for ceremonies of any intimate size, while the garden and terrace suit relaxed outdoor gatherings, and the Grand Ballroom works beautifully for small receptions with dining and dancing. During your tour, we'll match your guest count to the spaces that will feel just right.
Often, yes — a smaller guest count generally means lower catering and related costs. Many couples choose to reinvest those savings into a nicer experience per guest, such as upgraded dining or special details. Contact us for current pricing and we'll help you find the right fit for your celebration.
We're 15.6 miles east of downtown Savannah — about a 25–30 minute drive along US-80. Guests can enjoy Savannah's historic district and reach us easily on your wedding day.
