Situated along the Tanque Verde Wash, in the shadow of the Catalina Mountains, you will find a charming chapel surrounded by spacious grounds. Originally the site of one of Tucson's first cavalry installations, Saint Ann's Chapel and Ranch is one of the area's historic treasures. This quaint site appears to have been created with weddings in mind.
The cozy chapel, featuring southwestern territorial style architecture, seats up to 80 guests for an intimate ceremony. Rows of carved wood pews, plaster walls, a pretty altar that sits beyond a romantic arch, and warm candle sconces set the stage for a romantic ceremony in a traditional church setting.The facade of the chapel serves as an ideal backdrop for larger ceremonies, and looks so lovely adorned with floral wreaths and swags.
Interfaith couples, out-of-towners and those without their ÒownÓ church will appreciate this gem, which feels spiritual in its own right. Regardless of your religious affiliation, Saint Ann's Chapel will accommodate the ceremony style that is meaningful to you, right down to recommending an officiant.
Expansive lawns, cottonwood groves and rose gardens mark a versatile outdoor setting as well. This is the ÒRanchÓ part of the Saint Ann Chapel and Ranch. Celebrations ranging from formal tented affairs to Southwestern ranch-style receptions will be quite at home here. The venue is especially breathtaking at twilight, when the sun slips beyond the horizon and the night sky is illuminated with lights.
Family-owned and operated, each wedding at Saint Ann's benefits from a team that becomes a group of sincere friends by the time you embark on planing your event. Feel free to bring in your favorite vendors, or seek the help of these professionals to find the perfect caterers, entertainment, floral designers and bartenders for your dream wedding.
