-A '''wedding chapel''' is a building or room, other than a legal [[court]], where marriages are regularly performed. Usually wedding chapels are for-profit venues to host weddings in resort areas to encourage hotel room stays, catering and gambling by the guests. The buildings are generally religiously themed and imitate [[church architecture]]. In some cases, religious institutions have chapels that are used specifically for marriages or closed churches are converted into wedding chapels.
