The Wedding Chapel at the Fuller House Inn

The historic Fuller House Inn’s wedding chapel, with its candles, white silk roses, and elegant fireplace, is a romantic, intimate setting for a small wedding, elopement or vow renewal ceremony.  Our in-house wedding officiant, Susan Winkeler, will perform a standard, non-denominational ceremony before signing and returning your license to the issuing circuit court clerk.   You may also hire one of our associate wedding celebrants, David McLaughlin or Aaron Riddle.  If you prefer, you may bring your own minister, pastor, priest or spiritual adviser to perform your vows.  Our wedding chapel is open to all!

If you decide to bring your own wedding celebrant, please ask if they’re authorized to perform marriages in the Commonwealth of Virginia.  If not, there’s no need to worry!  Our in-house wedding officiant can legalize your union before, during or after your ceremony.  Susan Winkeler is a court-appointed, civil marriage commissioner (justice of the peace) for the City of Winchester.
