History

Constructed in 1989, the Marty Leonard Community Chapel was dedicated to serving the youth and families of Lena Hope in an uplifting environment. It was named after Marty Leonard because of her contributions to Lena Pope as an advocate and long-time board member. Her friends and family surprised her with the chapel on her 50th birthday — it had been her dream for years. Now, the chapel is also a place for weddings, vow renewals and church services, acting as a reflection of the positive impact Marty Leonard has had on Lena Hope.

The Carlton’s

We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect wedding day. Through the booking of a destination wedding the staff here was responsive from the beginning and well understanding. There was a few things we wanted to add such as a table for a memorial spot at the ceremony. No questions asked a table and table cloth was brought up for us to use. Which meant a lot to my husband and I. The place was clean and well put together. The bridal suite was perfect. Overall we could NOT have asked for a better place to have something so special in our lives. We can’t wait to come back. Overall we can’t recommend the chapel enough! Beautiful chapel! Thank you to the sweet team for all that you have done and we look forward to seeing you all again soon!
Sincerely,
Mr. & Mrs Carlton

Perfect and beautiful venue!

We booked the Marty Leonard chapel for the ceremony and Amon Carter center for the reception and it was perfect for us! It was such a beautiful event and I’m so glad we chose this venue. The staff is responsive and reliable. They had coffee and drink urns available for us to use at the reception and much more perks that helped us out in the planning process, like uplighting too. It worked out well with time for the guest to drive down the street for the reception after the ceremony. I wouldn’t have wanted it any other way!
