Our Ceremony
3:30 pm - 4:30 pm
1245 Birmingham Road, West Chester, PA 19382
This will be a Quaker ceremony, which means it is mostly silent worship at first. How do Quakers get married? During a special meeting for worship, the couple stand and face each other, then make very simple promises, giving themselves and taking each other in marriage. They sign a special certificate of marriage containing the words of their promises, then after the close of the meeting for worship, everyone present signs the certificate as a witness. There is no pastor to “officiate.” For more information on Quakers, here is a link with a lot of FAQs. https://www.fgcquaker.org/explore/faqs-about-quakers You can park at the meeting house for free.

The inn is located only 5 minutes away from the meeting house where the ceremony will take place. It's also only 8-10 minutes away from a cluster of many hotels and inns where our guests can stay. We recommend using uber for the day since everything is so close together and we want our guests to be safe.
