“Pop Up Chapel with The Knot, a grassroots event dreamt up by a group of friends in the wake of New York State passing the bill on same-sex marriages, will wed 24 same-sex couples at Merchant’s Gate in New York City’s Central Park on Saturday, July 30, 2011. In partnership with The Knot, the number one wedding planning resource, Pop Up Chapel with The Knot will provide pre-selected couples everything needed for their dream wedding in front of New York City — the officiant, photographer, flowers, witnesses, stylists, cupcakes and the location, all for free.”
Pop Up Chapel — are you envisioning a Central Park-sized fairy-tale book opening and a wedding popping out? — will be the best pop up chapel!
