Mary and Thomas Hubbard build
the chapel by hand on land deeded by the family farm. The first wedding takes place six months later.
The Hubbard family restores the original timber frame and installs the stained-glass windows that still look out onto the garden today.
The original garden is expanded to host outdoor receptions, with the heritage oak planted that summer becoming the centerpiece of countless first dances.
The barn behind the chapel is converted into a heated, four-season reception hall, doubling the venue’s capacity to 150 guests.
A full electrical, climate, and bridal-suite update brings the chapel into the modern era while preserving every original beam, pew, and pane of glass.
The new owners of the Hubbard Chapel take the helm, committed to keeping the chapel exactly what it has always been: a place where forever begins.
