THE CHAPEL AT OAK HILL

The Chapel at Oak Hill is an exquisite 1860’s treasure, completely restored to its original condition but with modern amenities such as heat, A/C and a sound system as well as a keyboard. For added charm, allow us to transport you to your ceremony via our 1931 Ford Model A or horse-drawn carriage.

St. John’s was built in Guilford Township, about 14 miles from Oak Hill Farm, by German immigrants on land purchased for $10. Completed in 1868 and dedicated on September 18, 1870, the building offered its first wedding on June 2, 1874. Services were delivered in German until 1928 and after nearly a century, regular services ended in 1969, after which the church was rarely used.

St. John’s was moved to Oak Hill on September 18, 1996, 126 years to the day of its original dedication date. The first wedding at Oak Hill was my own on June 27, 1998. We started the business in 2000 and have hosted close to a thousand weddings since then! We would love to share with you the unique and memorable experience of Oak Hill Farm.

We want to thank you for helping us make our wedding day the most memorable event ever. Everyone was amazed by the beautiful setting that made our day so unique.We have received endless compliments - it's been unbelievable! On our first visit to your estate that personal connection that we were looking for was captured. Your assistance with planning and decorating before the wedding was appreciated greatly. We couldn't have done it without you! The warmth you shared with our wedding party and guests go without question. You truly have a special place that is not only special to us but many others as well.

My husband and I were married at Oak Hill 3 years ago, and we wish we could go back and get married again and again! Becky was a pleasure to work with; she made everything so easy for us. The venue is gorgeous, and you get a lot for the price you pay. I have recommended the place to several people who were looking into Galena area weddings, and they have all been astonished when they viewed it!

My husband and I got married at Oak Hill in August and everything was absolutely perfect. Becky and her team were fantastic and every single detail was carefully thought in advance and executed. The whole day went even more perfectly that I could have ever imagined. The entire property was manicured and everything was above and beyond expectations. My dress even broke right before the ceremony and Becky brought out a sewing kit to help put it back together. Thank you so much!

This venue is BEAUTIFUL! My sister had her wedding here, and it was breathtaking. The staff was so relaxed and extremely helpful. There are so many places to explore, and many experiences for guest to enjoy from the historical school house to the friendly donkeys roaming the property. Beautiful location for any event.
