Stress Free Wedding

We are so glad we chose to get married using Pop-Up Chapel Co! They made the process seamless and stress-free and we had a small intimate ceremony with our families that was truly beautiful! Their selection of vendors was great - from the love guitarist, to our photographer, the lovely flowers and the amazing officiant

Great experience - do it!

Pop Up Chapel was a perfect fit for us. We were looking for something quick and easy, like Vegas, but in Toronto. We had also looked at photos of city hall, which is very blah. When I showed my (now-)husband the photos from other PUC, his eyes lit up like fireworks… I knew we were onto something. Our PUC was at Steamwhistle which was beautiful and charming. The Zoom call was well captured with many different angles, guests commented that they really felt like they were in the room with us. The photos so far are wonderful, the cake and snacks delicious, everybody loved the experience!

Our Photographer was Alicia Thurston and we are thrilled with what we’ve seen so far, we had a blast shooting with her and she did a great job getting us daylight and evening shots within our slotted chapel time.

Pop Up Chapel are slammed and overwhelmed right now. They seemed so busy that we had trouble putting down a deposit. Patience is a virtue here. Trust that they are working on everything and it will all run smoothly! The customization elements are handled via a Google form that captures everything.

Honestly, we enjoyed this so much that I would love to do it all over again for a vow renewal!

Awesome To Do Pandemic Wedding With These Guys

The last 18 months has been challenging for us, especially with the up and down changes to all rules and regulations regarding our wedding.

We were afraid that we would never get married, My wife and my in laws found these guys and they made having a wedding seamless.

You didn't have to break your bank account to have a wedding and the photographer they set up after was awesome.

Highly recommend using these guys, and they're organized and very professional.

My Dream Wedding

The Pop-up Chapel wedding was exactly for me. I'm so glad I found the Chapel. It was a stress-free, easy but amazingly beautiful wedding. The team was extremely professional and caring. I love that it didn't cost an arm and a leg to have a beautiful wedding. The concept of making beautiful weddings more affordable via co-sharing with other couples is brilliant. They had amazing vendor service - the musicians, the photographer, the live stream, etc- all fantastic and all taken-cared of for you. Apart from contributing to charity, I love that they reduce event environmental waste through upcycled decors and repurpose/ donate the florals after the event. On our tenth anniversary - I hope to do our wedding vow renewals via pop-up chapel again :)

Amazing Experience

Our wedding was originally supposed to be in May 2020 in Las Vegas. Of course that was cancelled many many times so we finally decided to look for something closer to home. When we came across the Pop-Up Chapel it seemed like it would be the perfect fit with a great venue (Steam Whistle!), great dates (Aug 2021) and no planning on my end required except for getting dressed and bringing the marriage license. The whole experience did not disappoint! From their super responsive staff to the beautiful venue set up and amazing photographer the day felt so special and still unique to us even though there were 7 other couples that same day. All our guests were saying to us after the wedding why didn't something like this exist when they were getting married. If you are thinking about doing a turnkey wedding don't hesitate because you won't regret getting married through the pop-up chapel!

Amazing experience!

We saved a TON of money and I loved the level of communication with the postponement due to the pandemic. The day itself went extremely smooth and the vendor even had non-alcoholic drinks for my husband and I. The photographer was extremely delightful and our teaser pictures look amazing thanks to how much he made us smile and laugh (and my husband never smiles).
I would definitely recommend this experience to any couples looking to save money and remove all the hassle of wedding planning.

Exceeded expectations (Parents of the Bride)

Because our daughter and husband took care of all the arrangements, we really didn't know what to expect -- especially during Covid! But the entire event was intimate, elegant but simple, sweet, heartfelt, and utterly charming, all while being inexpensive and green, and contributing to a worthy cause. Our own wedding 40 years ago, was simple and outdoors and it 'stuck'. We don't believe in fancy, over-priced weddings full of stress and debt. This was the exact opposite. The officiant was wonderful! The music was understated and perfect. The decor was gorgeous (and apparently, luck of the draw!). The photographer was unobtrusive and excellent: the photo memories are gorgeous. Only negative came from those who couldn't attend: the livestream didn't work. But that had no effect on the event itself, which will always be remembered as an all-too-rare gathering during this time of no gatherings. Thank you Pop-Up for a perfect day we will never forget!

Wonderful experience with Pop-Up Chapel - highly recommend!

We had a wonderful experience with the Pop Up Chapel, in getting married earlier this month. Although COVID-19 made it a challenge, Pop Up Chapel was very communicative and professional - letting us know if and what changes there would be (shoutout to Nicole and Diana)!

We got married at the Evergreen Brick Works at the BMO Atrium. The venue was beautifully decorated, clean and sanitized! Our friends and family were all separated with at least 2 meters of distance, to ensure their and our safety. We checked in a 40 minutes early for a health check and to speak with our rep, Carly, our photographer, Rita and our officiant, Leonard.

The band played a personalized song for us as we walked down the aisle together; our officiant was lovely! Although he'd just met us 30 minutes ahead of the ceremony, Leonard was very friendly and engaging. His words were sweet and funny. Our photographer, Rita, was wonderfully patient with us and had some great ideas for poses for us. The venue was accessible to us all, and the snacks and drinks were delicious (we didn't get a chance to eat or drink, but our guests did!)

We live-streamed our wedding for family and friends who were safely away, and the team who took the video was wonderful! The video turned out super well! We even got a chance to speak with the folks on Zoom, before returning to our photoshoot with Rita.

We chose Pop Up Chapel by Love by Lynzie because they (1) reduced waste produced by the wedding industry, (2) donate part of our fee to a charity (in our case, the Evergreen Children's Garden), and (3) the short but sweet wedding without the fuss of having to plan everything ourselves. Although the decor, florals, snacks and drinks were all a surprise - we were overjoyed and in love with our venue, decor, and everything in between!

Our only recommendation for Pop Up Chapel would be to include non-alcoholic drinks for the couple as an option for the toast, as not everyone drinks (my wife and I don't and I'm sure we're not alone). Otherwise - our wedding was wonderful!!
