Crossline Community Church was the venue I HAD to book for our wedding. I always imagined myself getting married in a church, and Crossline's Chapel was everything I could every p...icture my wedding to be. The wooden architecture inside makes the atmosphere of the church so warm and the design of the chapel is beautiful. The chapel was an incredible backdrop for our wedding.
Staci was our coordinator, and on the most part she did a good job. She was quick to respond to emails and I even was able to exchange communication through text. I feel like however, she could have done more to prepare in executing some of the finer details, one that was really important to me.
During the wedding rehearsal, we spent a lot of time figuring out the order of the Wedding Party. I had written down the order of the girls and guys multiple times: in my own Timeline, in emails, and in the written paperwork for Crossline. During the rehearsal Staci made me write down the order the Bridal Party again and I was somewhat irked she wasn't prepared.
In addition, I was very explicit in explaining the details of my Grand Entrance in my Bridal Processional song. We discussed it during the Rehearsal I would walk down the aisle at the 1 minute mark of the song, and I even sent her this information in an email. I am not sure what got miscommunicated, whether the message wasn't explained clearly to the Sound/Tech guy, or Staci just didn't refer to this in her notes. To my surprise when I started waking down the aisle, it was not at the part of the song that I wanted and I learned later that our guests were standing for almost 3 minutes waiting for my grand entrance.
I would definitely use this venue if you're looking to wed in a church, especially if you want to use your own pastor. You'll love the pictures! However, next time I would be extra careful in communicating the finer details including anything that has to do with music and specific timing for things in the ceremony.
