Hammerschmidt Memorial Chapel Elmhurst College

Is it weird to write a review about a chapel? Probably but I’m going to do it anyways. My friend got married here this past weekend and I had the honor of being a bridesmaid. It was a hot, hot day and it was so relaxing to be in a place with air conditioning. Being raised Catholic, I know how most churches are not air conditioned and have memories of fainting alter servers during mass. Luckily we had no fainting bridesmaids during the ceremony. I really liked that they had a more secular service with the structure of a religious service but readings from the couple’s favorite books. I can’t comment on the price of using the chapel since I was a bridesmaid and not a bride (#lifestory) but if you’re looking to get married this might be a good place to checkout.
