The services provided at The Willows Event Center are an expression of our purpose statement, “To reveal God and His Kingdom through our work in the marketplace.” With this in mind, we respectfully reserve the right to decline any wedding ceremony not aligned with our purpose statement, including same-sex ceremonies. However, our desire is to serve all couples, so we can provide a list of other local ceremony venues for consideration and are happy to host a post ceremony celebration.
