Nazareth Chapel Amenities and Resources
Nazareth Chapel is a magnificent setting for your special day. The chapel has a maximum seating capacity of 300 guests. There are 20 wooden pews on each side of the chapel's center aisle and a pew on each side of the doorway. The flooring in the front of the chapel is a stunning hunter green marble with room for the grand piano, reader's podium and stairs to the altar table. The chapel balcony houses the organ and is an ideal location for your photographer, videographer and additional instruments. Please keep in mind that since the chapel is a historic building, it is not air-conditioned.

CandlesThe University of Northwestern - St. Paul provides candles for your wedding at no additional charge. The only candles not provided by University of Northwestern - St. Paul are the unity candles and side taper candles. If you choose to provide your own candles, other than the unity candles, there will be a minimum damage/clean-up charge of $50.
Each candle has an aluminum outer shell that holds a candle insert. These drip-less candles will burn for at least four hours under normal conditions. Our candles will always look beautiful in your pictures and during your ceremony because they remain at the same height. University of Northwestern - St. Paul provides:
