WEDDINGS in the Chapel
Click here for some of the weddings
held in the Chapel in 2010- 2011
The Chapel Society - Founded in 1983
The
first bride in the Chapel, Sue Burns, (daughter of Mary (Horsley) and
Dr Harding Burns) and her husband, Stephen Bowers, celebrated their Silver
anniversary on 7th May, 2008.
Over 500 weddings have now taken place and while each one is quite different,
every one is full of happiness. The candles are lit, the flowers are in place,
and the music soars in the splendid acoustics. And the 1890 Puget organ, restored
in France between 2005-2009 is heard once again and will feature at many more
weddings in the years to come.
There is a pipe in the Puget organ dedicated to all brides. A façade pipe
is dedicated to the previous wedding supervisor, Mrs Brenda Carmody, and donations
for that pipe have come from many brides in memory of their wedding day.
Wedding
Guidelines
The Chapel Wedding guidelines have been revised and weddings are available for
siblings, children and grand-children of alumnae/i.
Wedding bookings are made with Mrs Rosalind Mansell at the School on 9388-6140
or
email: events@krb.nsw.edu.au,
and a member of The Chapel Society attends every wedding to greet guests, together
with Wedding Supervisor, Mrs Barbara Buhagiar, who takes the rehearsal in the
Chapel a few days before the event.
Many guests are seeing the Chapel for the first time and we ensure they receive
a copy of the history of both the Chapel and the Puget organ. Overseas guests
especially appreciate this.
