💜 A Note to Our Wonderful Clients 💜

If you’ve noticed it’s taken us a little longer to respond lately… you’re right. The truth is, since we shared the first glimpse of our new chapel, the response has been overwhelming. The amount of calls, texts, and tour requests has far exceeded what we ever dreamed of.

That’s a good problem to have — and one we’re grateful for. 🙏 To keep up, we’ve already added another member to our sales team so we can serve you better. We just ask for a little patience as we work through the incredible demand.

And yes — because so many of you have asked — the chapel is available for vow renewals. 💍

We still have a handful of dates left this year and into early next, so if you’re considering booking, now’s the time. 📲 Send us a text to schedule your tour, and we’ll respond as quickly as possible.

Thank you for making this space more than we ever imagined.

✨ History Made ✨

Congratulations to Mr. & Mrs. Absy. 💍

Last night, love filled our new chapel with something it hasn’t heard in over two decades — vows. Sacred words, spoken for the first time in this place since its long silence, now echo as the beginning of a new story.

Your family’s love and legacy made this moment even more meaningful. These walls will hold many celebrations in the years ahead, but yours will forever be remembered as the first.

May your marriage be as enduring as the brick, as radiant as the stained glass, and as full of joy as this community’s embrace. 💜

Here’s to the return of love, light, and life within these walls.

💜 Tomorrow, our chapel will host its first wedding in a generation.

On Sunday, the doors open for everyone to step inside, walk the aisle, and see how this once-forgotten space has come alive again. ✨

Open House
Sunday, September 21 | 11–2

And when you’re finished, head down the block to enjoy our Sunday Buffet at The Historic (also 11–2) — a table full of comfort food, family, and community.

This weekend isn’t just about food or buildings. It’s about gathering, celebrating, and witnessing the beginning of a new chapter in Palestine.

We’d love for you to be part of it. 💜

Some walls are built for silence. Others are built to speak.

This chapel has waited decades to tell its story again. Now, every beam, every brick, every restored detail whispers the same truth: beauty can be reborn.

What once stood forgotten now rises with purpose — ready to hold light, laughter, and moments that last a lifetime.

This is more than restoration. It’s renewal. And it’s just the beginning.

🖤🤍

✨ Some places are worth waiting for.

This chapel sat quiet for decades — its windows dark, its walls heavy with silence. But love restores.

Now the light pours in again. The air carries promise. And a space once forgotten is ready to hold laughter, vows, and new beginnings. 💍

For the couples who will walk this aisle, it won’t just be about a ceremony — it will be about redemption, about beauty made new, about standing in a place that was given a second chance.

The Chapel at The Historic is ready.
Downtown Palestine, one block from the reception hall.

💜 A place to begin again.

We know what it’s like to bring an old building back to life—the time, energy, and love it takes. And we know how fast it can all change. Our hearts go out to Backroads after the devastating damage to their building.

They were building something special for this community, and they still are. Please visit their page, share their story, and support however you can. Let’s rally together and help them get Backroads back.

Some spaces whisper. This one sings.

Brunch is in full swing and the buffet is lookin’ delicious! We’ll be rotating items all day—right now I’m loving the crab cake eggs Benedict, and I can’t wait for the mahi mahi to hit the line. Happy Mother’s Day from all of us!
