Weddings

The University of Richmond is pleased to offer the Cannon Memorial Chapel as the location for your wedding ceremony. Weddings may be held throughout the year, but availability is dependent upon already scheduled University activities. Examples include: Homecoming, Reunion Weekend and Commencement Weekend. The Chapel may be booked only on Saturdays from mid January through the first of December.

CHANGE NOTICE: The Cannon Memorial Chapel renovation schedule has been altered, the Chapel WILL BE AVAILABLE for weddings until May 8, 2011.

If you had called for a date between Jan 2010 - May 2011 please call back if you are still interested in the Chapel for your wedding. The Chapel will be unavailable for weddings starting May 8, 2011 due to renovations.

Thank you for your patience.  We will update this page as new renovation information is provided to our office.
