Experience a celebration of love at Oak Grove Retreat and St. Anne’s Chapel, a labor of love for proprietor Kevin Wilson. Acquiring the Gothic-Revival chapel and its 25-acre estate alongside his wife, Tricia, in 1999, the Wilsons embarked on a mission to restore the once-forgotten chapel to its former glory. Transformed into a cherished sanctuary for love and tranquility, the venue now stands as a testament to their dedication. Boasting a blend of historic charm and expansive landscapes, Oak Grove and St. Anne’s Chapel provide couples with a versatile backdrop to craft their dream wedding.

Whether you prefer an intimate chapel ceremony followed by an outdoor reception or exchanging vows amidst nature with an indoor dinner, the options are limitless. With the ability to accommodate various budgets, this venue offers a highly customizable experience, catering to wedding parties of 60 to 250 guests. Amidst amenities like changing suites, a grand manor-house porch, rustic barns, and picturesque photography spots, Oak Grove ensures unforgettable moments for every couple who walks through its manicured gardens. Step into a realm of endless possibilities at Oak Grove, where each celebration is as unique as the couple it honors. "Tricia and I, both natural creatives, envisioned a space where couples could bring their dream wedding to life," shared Wilson.
