A
guide to weddings and special services at Lawrence University's
Björklunden chapel
Located on 425 wooded acres along Lake Michigan, the chapel at Björklunden is a picturesque setting for a wedding, baptism, or family service. The staff at Björklunden wishes to help you make this special service a memorable experience, not just for you, but also for your family and friends.
Please note that you are responsible for obtaining the marriage license and for hiring the person to perform the ceremony. Also, the chapel is a seasonal building, so although it is available year-round, the temperature inside the building is the same as the temperature outside. The chapel accommodates 36 people sitting in pews. The lighting of candles is not allowed in the chapel.
Fee
Lawrence University’s fee for the use of the Björklunden
chapel is $400. This
fee is for use of the chapel only; there are no facilities for dressing, handling
groups if it rains, or public restrooms. There is a two-hour time
limit that must be strictly adhered to, as we often have multiple services
on the same day.
