At Heavenly Chapel Ministry, we believe that marriage is a sacred covenant, a union ordained by God to reflect His divine love and commitment. Our marriage ceremonies are designed to honor this holy bond, bringing together couples in a heartfelt and faith-filled experience that celebrates their love and devotion. Unlike traditional churches with a fixed venue, we provide a flexible and personalized service, allowing couples to exchange their vows at a location of their choosing. Whether it’s a scenic outdoor setting, a private home, a banquet hall, or another meaningful place, we come to you to officiate your wedding with grace, dignity, and reverence.
A Ceremony Rooted in Faith
Marriage is more than just a legal contract—it is a spiritual covenant before God. Our ceremonies are centered on Christian values and Biblical principles, ensuring that every couple is not only legally united but also spiritually blessed. As it is written in Genesis 2:24 (KJV):
“Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.”
Our officiants, led by Pastor John DeRossett, take great care in crafting a ceremony that reflects the couple’s faith and love. Each wedding is an opportunity to glorify God while celebrating the beautiful journey that begins when two hearts become one.
Personalized and Meaningful Ceremonies
Every couple has a unique love story, and we tailor each ceremony to reflect their journey together. Whether you prefer a traditional Christian ceremony, a simple elopement-style service, or a personalized vow exchange, we work closely with you to create a meaningful and memorable experience.
Ceremony Components:
- Opening Prayer and Welcome – The officiant welcomes the guests and begins with a heartfelt prayer, inviting God’s presence into the ceremony.
- Scripture Readings – Selected verses from the King James Version (KJV) of the Bible are read to highlight the beauty and sanctity of marriage.
- Exchange of Vows – Couples may use traditional vows or write their own, making the moment deeply personal.
- Ring Exchange – A symbol of eternal love, the rings are blessed before being placed on each other’s hands.
- Blessing and Unity Prayer – A special prayer is offered, asking for God’s blessings upon the couple’s life together.
- Pronouncement of Marriage – The couple is officially declared husband and wife in the sight of God and witnesses.
- Closing Prayer and Benediction – A final prayer is offered, seeking God’s guidance and strength for the newlyweds.
Your Chosen Venue, Your Special Day
We understand that the setting of your wedding is just as important as the ceremony itself. Whether you envision saying your vows in a peaceful garden, a beach at sunset, a rustic barn, or your family home, Heavenly Chapel Ministry is honored to officiate at your selected location. This flexibility allows couples to create a deeply personal and meaningful atmosphere for their special day.
Legal and Spiritual Considerations
Our officiants are legally ordained and able to perform marriages in compliance with state laws. We guide couples through the legal requirements, ensuring that all necessary paperwork is completed. Beyond the legal aspect, our focus remains on the spiritual significance of marriage, emphasizing a Christ-centered union that will stand the test of time.

Prices may vary depending on the exact services being completed on a given day. For example, a wedding ceremony is $225.00, but if you wish the presence of the minister at the rehearsal, there is an additional charge of $75.00. If the wedding ceremony is outside a 50 mile radius from Hemet, CA, then we may add the cost of a motel stay as well. This is a rare event though, depending on the time of day and location.
