Your Wedding at St. Margaret's
in either the Sanctuary or the Wedding Chapel

Fact Sheet
Filled with dazzling light from giant windows looking out on the Santa Rosa Mountains and Coachella Valley, your wedding will take place among a glorious desert backdrop as family and friends gather for your joyous and sacred day. St. Margaret's is one of the desert's most precious gems. We are a house of prayer for all people, where generations of those celebrating their marriage vows have come together to celebrate. We provide memorable, sacred spaces to share this important life event with family and friends, in either our main Sanctuary or our Wedding Chapel. As a church welcoming to all, including the LGBTQ+ community, we honor the desire for loving commitment among all couples. 

Because your wedding ceremony is considered to confer an intangible religious benefit, our wedding fees are tax deductible to the full extent of the law. You will receive a statement for your offering stating that “St. Margaret's Episcopal Church is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. No goods or services were provided other than intangible religious benefits.
