Your Love, Your Way: Why Faithwood Is the Most Inclusive Wedding Venue in South Australia
Some venues welcome you. Others see you.
At Faithwood Chapel, we do both.
From the very beginning, we knew Faithwood would never be just another white wedding chapel. It would be a space where all love stories are sacred. Where queer couples, neurodivergent minds, second-marriage sweethearts, and unconventional romantics are not just accepted - they are celebrated.
This is your wedding, your way - no apologies, no code-switching, no shrinking yourself to fit a template that was never built for you.
Built With Inclusivity in Its Foundations
Faithwood is proudly lesbian-owned and operated by Jewel and Hannah, married in 2022, who know firsthand what it means to seek safety, softness, and joy on your wedding day. We’ve marched in pride parades and campaigned for marriage equality.
This is not a church that tolerates you or a business that uses you for social media diversity.
This is a chapel that celebrates you.
We don’t just say “love is love” - we show it in every corner of our space:
Our imagery features real queer, trans, and gender-diverse couples
Our team is trained in inclusive language, ceremony structures, and neuro-affirming practices
Our styling is gender-neutral and flexible - think classic whites, floral upgrades, and a timeless palette that adapts to your vision
Let us know your preferred language, pronouns, and wedding terms. Bride doesn’t feel right? Easy. Bridesmen, Groomsladies, wedding couple and newlyweds.
Designed for the Neurodivergent Brain
Faithwood is proudly neurodivergent-run, which means we’ve designed everything from our emails to our ceremony timelines with clarity, comfort, and consent in mind. We’ll match your written tone (short or long) and communication preferences (sms, calls, email and dm’s).
No jargon, no pressure — just clear steps and warm guidance
Predictable schedules with optional pre-visits
Ceremony support that gently hosts your timeline, so you don’t need to perform
Seating for up to 24 guests to keep things intimate and sensory-considerate
From aisle cues to confetti counts, we take care of it all so you can stay grounded and present.
Representation Matters - And So Does Real Joy
In 2024, 4,746 same-gender couples were legally married in Australia. Of those, 2,622 were female–female couples.
Faithwood is proud to be part of that love story.
We’re not trying to capitalise on diversity. We are the community we serve. And we believe in creating a visual legacy of queer joy, Black love, interracial couples, non-traditional families, and love in all its glorious forms.
You’ll see it in our feed. You’ll feel it in our space.
And you’ll remember it every time you look at your wedding photos.
The Packages That Support Your Freedom
Whether you’re after a no-fuss legal ceremony with a sweet floral touch (our Love Fool package at $2849), or a more elevated, editorial experience with champagne and portraits (our ‘Til The Stars Grow Cold package at $5288), we’ve designed every option to feel clear, generous, and grounded.
We’ll match you with a celebrant who gets it. A photographer who sees you. A space that feels safe.
Because we believe love should never feel like a compromise.
A Love Story That Looks Like Yours
Faithwood Chapel is booking for 2025–2026 with select Saturday dates still available and midweek elopements open year-round.
Whether you're planning a secret elopement, a bold vow ceremony, or something quietly revolutionary — we’ll be here, doors open, arms wide.
