About this venue
The Appalachian Wedding Chapel & Boutique is a charming and unique waterfront venue located at 2925 Northwestern Pike in Capon Bridge, WV. Sitting miraculously beside the healing waters of the Cacapon River, and offering both indoor and outdoor ceremonies, it is unlike any other in the mid-Atlantic region. This exquisite riverside location shares space with Basswood, the town of Capon Bridge’s premier Airbnb. Five beautifully appointed suites offer lovely accommodations and the Boutique carries locally crafted ceremonial accessories like handfasting cords, drinking vessels, fine chocolates and unique gifts for all occasions. With a variety of entertainment and dining possibilities within walking distance, or just a short drive to Romney or Winchester Va., couples can easily add a reception to their special day. Owners and officiants, John and Brenda Berry are always happy to connect couples with their trusted vendor partners for music, photography, cakes, catering, and more.

Thoughtful, warm, amazing
An absolutely wonderful experience. The Berrys are insightful and very observant, and do a really great job of listening to you and understanding what is important to you and your future spouse. As we talked about what we wanted we asked for some special ceremonial aspects specific to us. It was perfectly integrated. We were looking for something a little less traditional but also with the familiar structure so that the more traditional family members would follow along without too much confusion. It was the perfect balance. I honestly I’m just so happy my now wife found the Berrys. There is a lot that goes into a wedding and we can be worried about decorations, and invites, the family politics and food, djs, catering… but the most important part at the end of the day is 30min ceremony where the officiant make you married. I think Jon was just an amazing human and I’m so happy he could stand with us and marry us. I would recommend him to anyone looking to get married.
Unique, Insightful, Personal
I cannot recommend John highly enough. He is extremely professional and experienced, crafted a ceremony from our interview and questionnaire responses that perfectly fit our vision, smoothly and calmly guided us through our rehearsal, and did a wonderful job with the ceremony. But beyond that, John is a true artist. If you are looking for a ceremony that is deeply personal, celebrating love and life and drawing on a connection with nature and spirituality, look no further. John does not merely weave words into emotion, he creates a whole world, a little enclave where you and your guests can linger in a moment of pure joy. There was not a dry eye in the room, and every single one of our guests (even my ultra-conservative, traditional, religious family) took time to tell us that the ceremony was the most beautiful, emotional, and heartfelt one they’d attended.
Wonderful Energy!
I have photographed several ceremonies performed by this husband & wife team and the couples have had such good things from start to finish to say about this team. I find them to bring a sense of calm to the day and are able to work with all the different personalities that surround a venue (guests/vendors). I am excited to see where this new adventure takes them and look forward to capturing all the love that this new space will hold.
My go-to wedding officiant referral; AMAZING!
After first working with Brenda 10 years ago at a wedding, I've been amazed at how well and sincere she performs her role as a wedding officiant. I've worked with her 50 times over the last 24 years and each time, its truly and wonderful experience watching her. From experience, I can honestly recommend her as a wedding officiant and would highly recommend contacting her for yours. My recommendation is to contact her and setup a meeting so you can picture her standing in front of you on your wedding day.
