Hi GO!
I pledged $200 for my "wedding" (just vows, will get legally married in Mexico) and am trying to schedule it. I sent Kevin my desired dates but haven't heard back. How do I go about this?
Hope this gets fully funded!!!
Cheers

Yes Mildred, you could have your wedding on July 24th. The Chapel is going to be great! We are working on some amazing details now.
If I pledge $500 right now and the goal is reached can I have my wedding July 24 2009?

Jen I just pledged $200 for the lower level- please pledge $500 lets get this bad boy idea off the ground I ahve mock friends on my mock guest list mock excited for my mock wedding!
Here is the answer to Doug's question:
The wedding chapel will exist for a maximum of two months. Currently we are scheduled to close at the end of July, but if there is a lot of interest then will be continue it until the end of August.
If I donated money now, could the wedding take place next year? I just got engaged but am not looking to do anything until next year. That being said, this sounds like it could be great. I'd put $500 into this if I could have it next year.
Here are answers to questions:
Eleanor - You could have a wedding party at Grand Opening. Bring friends and family. It's a great honeymoon alternative.
Laura - We'll perform same sex marriages now for the experience. Once same sex marriages are approved we'll provided legal weddings then too.
Jen - If you donate $500 and we don't reach our goal then you get your money back. No one is charged until we reach the goal. There is no risk.
Quick question... If I donate $500 for the deluxe wedding package and The Wedding Chapel doesn't reach it's $3000 goal by July 1, do I get my $500 back? I love the idea of this space, it's exactly the thing me and my fiance (hate that word) would be into, but, $500 is kind of a big risk for us. Thanks!
will the chapel perform same sex marriages once it has been approved by NYState?
We never went on a honeymoon. What can G.O. do for us?
