Going To The Chapel
Serving those who serve
In a class by ourselves, Going to the Chapel has a unique approach to wedding planning that follows military event protocol and etiquette, while blending individual vision and ideas to create the perfect wedding for you. We know how to tastefully take the military mold and your particular wedding dreams and create a wedding that is yours and yours alone.
Going to the Chapel … was originally founded by CDR Jane Richman, USN, Retired as a way to give back to the military community she dearly loved. Her motto and credo was: SERVING THOSE WHO SERVE. Jan Wise continued Jane’s vision for over 10 years, bringing a greater standard of excellence to the company. Chicks Design & Events proudly continues Jane and Jan’s vision with each Bride and Groom we serve.

Our history…

“sometimes perfection is the only acceptable outcome: 99% isn’t a passing grade when you count students after a field trip, and “close enough” isn’t good enough in anything the military does.
— Jan Wise, Strategic Partner & Previous Owner
