I am planning a wedding for Feb 10 and want a quaint church wedding close to the beach. I have found several in South Carolina, but the only option I have come up with in the Destin area, is the one in Seaside. Does anyone know of a place down there? It will be too cold to plan on an outdoor wedding. Is there a chapel in Rosemary?

The most beautiful small church in the area is Point Washington UMC. It is an old fashioned small white church that is surrounded by beautiful trees. The people there are great too! (I'm biased.) It's on the bay side of SoWal at the end of 395. Less than 5 minutes to the beach in Seagrove. I don't know what is in Rosemary.

I saw a picture of that church. It is beautiful and we are both Methodist, so that would be a great choice. Is there a website that might have some more pictures?

I don't think the church has a website. This church is often photographed so maybe SmilingJOe or Kurt has one that they could post.

Carillion Beach has a pretty chapel, but I also love Pt Wash Methodist.

If you want to be close to the beach then Carrillon or Seaside would be your choices.

Rosemary Beach doesn't have a chapel but you could probably rent the town hall.

Phone for Point Washington UMC is (850) 231-4928. The pastor is Rev. Tonya Elmore, and she's awesome. ;-)

I do some volunteer work for the United Methodist Church, nationwide, and Point Washington's UMC does not have a website. According to the Alabama/West Florida FUMC Conference website, it is considered Santa Rosa Beach, and not Pt. Washington (for p.o. purposes probably). Good luck.
