Each of the two chapels available for weddings within Memorial Chapel has an organ, piano and air-conditioning.

The Main Chapel interior is white with burgundy accents and accommodates up to 1,000 guests. However, due to time constraints the maximum number of guests is 300 for a single time block.

The smaller West Chapel is quaint, with red brick walls and rustic wood trusses. Maximum occupancy is 100, with about 90 guests seated comfortably.

There are 505 guest parking spaces convenient to the chapel during a wedding.

Weddings are held year round in both chapels on Saturdays and Sundays in alternating time blocks so that no two ceremonies take place simultaneously.

Some weekends each year weddings are not allowed because the chapel is scheduled for campus events.

Rehearsals are scheduled in 90-minute increments beginning at 4pm on Thursday and Friday evenings prior to the wedding.

Handicap Access:
Many handicap parking spaces are located in the vicinity of the chapel. The Main Chapel has ramped access through the north side entrance. A grade level entrance to the West Chapel is in the garden behind the chapel.
