We were married 08/01/09, and chose Mon Bel Ami Chapel after reviewing several testimonies from various sites as well as checking out other chapels (all online). I was nervous about booking online, site unseen, but that is just part of the adventure! The initial support by the staff to set up the details and answer questions was very good. The gentleman in charge that day was wonderful, accommodating, and very capable in working with a nervous bride and lost guests. I couldn't have been more pleased with my beautiful red-rose teardrop bouquet. The chapel was cute, our photographer, George, was fun and did an amazing job. We had not planned on purchasing the whole photograph set, but there was also no way we could pick just 6 after seeing them. While some of our guests were disgruntled about not being able to take their own pictures, we set up an account with Costco.com and they have all been able to order their own copies of professional-grade ones instead = happy guests! Also, our long-distance guests LOVED the opportunity to view the wedding via the internet. After the ceremony, the staff called for taxi's for our guests which we thought was very courteous of them. Our only MINOR complaint was with the minister who had not read the personalized ceremony I had sent 3 weeks earlier, mispronounced several words, really had no idea what a sand ceremony was, and had to ask us how to pronounce our last name right before he announced us (and that is on the video too!) However, all things considered, we had an amazing wedding for under $1000 and are very, very pleased!
