EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT POP-UP CHAPEL VANCOUVER

We at The Pop-Up Chapel Co. have long held aspirations to bring the Chapel out west and this fall our dream becomes a reality! Maybe it is just a romantic notion held by all us Ontarians, but Vancouver is truly the gem of Canada. The “Vancouver lifestyle” seems so well-balanced and epitomizes all of our dreams of getting out from behind our desks and exploring this beautiful country.

This vibrant city is the home to Hycroft Manor, a magnificent Edwardian mansion, that is the perfect setting for intimate weddings. It features an abundance of bright, picturesque rooms, as well as breathtaking outdoor spaces ideal for romantic portrait sessions. It is such a special venue with an amazing history (originally built as a private residence over 100 years ago!) and so different from anywhere we’ve hosted the Chapel before!

Since many of our couples travel to get to the Chapel, one of the most frequent questions we get from couples is “Where should we go for lunch/dinner/drinks after the Chapel?”. We asked our Vancouver Brand Ambassadors, Michelle and Lisa of Elope with Us Vancouver, for some recommendations of local spots couples and their guests can take the party post-Chapel and they didn’t disappoint! Check out these Vancouver spots if you’re a Chapel couple looking for a lunch/dinner celebration, or if you just want to try out a new restaurant!
