 Reverend
Ed Taylor has been a church- ordained minister since 1958. He was
educated at East Tennessee State University, Tennessee Temple University,
Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, Fort Worth Texas, and received his
doctorate from Emanuel University in North Carolina.
Rev. Taylor is senior minister of Gatlinburg
 Ministries,
a non profit Church organization established almost 30 years ago with a
mission to uphold traditional family values by conducting marriage ceremonies
based on the biblical principle that marriage is a Divine institution. From a
small marriage chapel, Rev. Taylor now oversees Gatlinburg's Little Mountain
Church Village which includes three chapels, a biblical museum and a 200 seat
Christian music concert hall. We will perform your Christian ceremony according
to your affordability. CLICK HERE to see Rev. Taylor's

The Ceremony |
Each wedding is performed by a
church ordained Christian minister in one of our three "Mountain Replica"
chapels, nestled in the beautiful Smoky Mountains. The chapels are decorated
with silk flowers and candelabra and have authentic wood-hewn padded seats
to create a unique and intimate setting for your ceremony. Our chapels, (made
world famous by our "Little Mountain Chapel") seat up to 60 people and have 5
dressing rooms for your convenience. Our Bridal Chamber has mirrors and
theatrical vanity lighting for those last minute touch-ups and a private
restroom for your convenience. When you're ready, we escort you into a
comfortable waiting area for your personal rehearsal before entering the chapel. |
