This is known as the Garden Chapel. This chapel is situated on the grounds of the Big Cedar Lodge.
Big Cedar Lodge is a very laid back vacation spot. There is a quiet, un-hurried atmosphere. The chapel is the epitome of that feeling.
At first glance your eye is captured by the simple oak pews and wood plank floors. The warm wood gives way to the freshly painted white walls and elegant Gothic windows.
The windows offer beautiful views of the Big Cedar Lodge property. As your eye moves past the windows and up the walls you notice the craftsman style lighting fixtures.
The most breathtaking view is through the window at the front of the chapel. The view looks over the rolling hills and Table Rock Lake.
However, the thing I like the most about this simply elegant chapel is when the bride walks down the aisle and stands at the front of the church…there will be no stained glass windows projecting prisms throughout the chapel. There are no statues or fresco paintings to draw the attention away from the beautiful bride and her moment…
On the wedding day, all eyes should be on the bride. With all of the time and attention she spent having her hair and makeup done deserves to be observed and admired by those in attendance. Her flower bouquet was specifically designed to complement her ensemble. She chose her jewelry very carefully. She may have selected a family heirloom or spent days looking into jewelry cases for the perfect pair of earrings. We can’t forget her shoes…the shoe must have the right heel, be the perfect shade of ivory and fit like a glove. However, the piece de resistance..the dress…yes her dress…whether she has chosen for her dress to pouf out beneath her or glide down her curves the dress will be what everyone will talk about. The bride deserves to be the center of attention!
