Why Keeping St. Frances Budget-Friendly Matters

At St. Frances, we believe that love should be celebrated without the weight of financial stress. Too often, couples feel overwhelmed by the rising costs of weddings—forced to choose between a meaningful day and long-term financial stability. Our mission has always been different. We want couples to begin their marriage not with debt, but with joy, peace, and the knowledge that their love is what truly matters.

Love Over Luxury

The beauty of St. Frances isn’t found in extravagant chandeliers or million-dollar ballrooms—it’s in the historic charm of an 1845 chapel, the glow of string lights in the trees, and the presence of family and friends gathered in love. By keeping our packages affordable, we ensure that couples can focus on what’s most important: each other.

Legacy Without the Burden

St. Frances exists because of legacy. This chapel, saved and restored by family, is a symbol of devotion passed from one generation to the next. Part of honoring that legacy is ensuring our space is accessible to today’s couples. We don’t believe a wedding should cost a lifetime of savings; instead, it should be the start of a legacy built on love, faith, and commitment.

A Venue That Gives Back

When couples choose St. Frances, they aren’t just booking a wedding—they’re part of something bigger. Ten percent of every booking goes directly to hospice care, in memory of our father whose love made St. Frances possible. By staying budget-friendly, we ensure that couples can give back too, knowing that their wedding day supports life and legacy beyond themselves.

Creating Rich Memories Without Overspending

From intimate elopements to weekend celebrations, our packages are designed with flexibility and fairness in mind. We want every couple—whether planning a small ceremony or a full-scale event—to feel that they’ve received more than just a venue. They’ve gained an experience rooted in history, family, and meaning, without sacrificing financial peace of mind.

At St. Frances, affordability is not just a choice—it’s a promise. Because love, legacy, and life should always come before price tags.
