We were disappointed at the lack of romance in the halls and restaurants we visited. As soon as we saw the historic chapel, we fell in love with it…
Our History
Privately owned, for your event your way.
The Historical Chapel is a privately owned landmark in the Town of Oyster Bay and remains one of the few historic treasures gracing Long Island’s North Shore. Originally built in 1852 as a Methodist church, this charming venue has been a place for community and celebration for over a century.
In 2024, the chapel was purchased by new ownership with a vision to restore its historic charm while elevating it into a premier destination for weddings and special events. The new owner is enhancing the space with modern conveniences and introducing premium packages to make every event unforgettable. These packages include expert event planning, collaborations with top florists, and partnerships with renowned vendors, ensuring a seamless and luxurious experience for couples on their special day.
The chapel’s timeless beauty, combined with state-of-the-art amenities and bespoke services, creates the perfect setting for unforgettable celebrations. Whether hosting intimate ceremonies or grand receptions, the Historical Chapel offers a unique blend of historic elegance and modern sophistication tailored to your vision.
Make planning your ceremony simple & easy
Within the walls of the chapel, 100 guests can sit comfortably in the original curved pews that have been fully refurbished and restored in a deep mahogany. The original tin ceiling has been hand painted in Renaissance style and is always a topic of conversation. On opposing walls of the chapel, sit floor to ceiling Tiffany stained glass windows that offer stunning picture opportunities. When the sun shines through the windows, light and color dance throughout the chapel surrounding it with beauty and serenity. It is a remarkable sight.
Music lovers will appreciate the original pipe organ which is piped throughout the chapel, adding a dramatic flair for your guests. Perhaps the most historic feature of the chapel is the tower bell that can be rung after a wedding or memorial service.
