The Birch Leaf Chapel is the ideal artistic building for your small wedding. It was created with the goal of creating an area that was equal parts spiritual and beautiful. It sits on top of piles left by gold miners years and years ago and required 16 craftsmen to complete. Every detail is exquisite, giving your guests any number of things to admire throughout your event. Let the stained glass windows serve as a mesmerizing backdrop for your photos, and if you plan correctly, your guests will be treated to the colors reflecting on the ceiling in a way that mimics the northern lights. You can fit up to 30 people seated at this wedding venue, making it an intimate setting.
