Bastyr University Chapel "The Bastyr University Chapel is an ideal setting for weddings. The Bastyr University Chapel is on the campus of Bastyr University, an internationally acclaimed university in natural health care. The facility rests on 50 acres of fields and woodlands on the northeast shore of Lake Washington, just 10 miles from downtown Seattle and Bellevue. The university is adjacent to the beautiful 316-acre St. Edward State Park, comprised of evergreen forests, streams and including secluded beach access to Lake Washington. Miles of nature trails wind through much of the park. Bastyr University’s exquisite European-style chapel was created with the highest quality workmanship available in 1958 and continues to radiate the devotion with which it was built. Nearly five stories in height and 140 feet long, it is home to 36 hand-crafted stained glass windows and brilliant glass mosaic artwork depicting various religious themes, hand-crafted altars and columns of foreign marbles, terrazzo floors, wooden pews, oak paneling and a choir loft. The carved wooden pews run length-wise along the chapel, making the procession of the bride and groom a truly spectacular site for all in attendance. The chapel and choir loft combined can comfortably seat up to 450 people. Both members of the Bastyr Community and the public may rent the chapel for weddings. If you are not a student, staff or faculty member, you are eligible to hold your wedding here by contributing to the university at the Partners In Healing level of $250 or above. A contribution at the $250 level is already included in the rates (see rates page). Your contribution is tax deductible. Support for the university at this level entitles you to other benefits as well, (see benefits page) and you will receive our quarterly newsletter, the Source, where you will be recognized for your support. This contribution helps offset operating costs associated with the upkeep of the building, including the chapel. Although still owned by the Catholic Archdiocese, formal Catholic services are no longer performed here. The chapel is now available for non-sectarian uses, and couples of almost every faith are welcome to perform their wedding ceremonies here. Each couple is responsible for finding an appropriate Minister or Justice of the Peace to perform their ceremony. The only restriction, in accordance with the lease with the Catholic Archdiocese of Seattle, is that Catholic weddings may not be held in the chapel. Those Catholics who would like to use the facility must discuss their interest with the priest at St. John Vianney parish in Kirkland." Woodmark
