There are 3 main areas of this historic Galveston wedding venue: the main Lyceum Chapel, the more intimate Lyceta Room, and the outdoor lighted courtyard. The Lyceum Chapel is our showcase and is one of the most beautiful wedding chapels in Galveston. First of all, you will be amazed by it’s stunning floor-to-ceiling stained-glass windows. During the day, the suns rays illuminate the venue with bright color. Likewise, at night they provide an artistic backdrop like huge pieces of art in in a gallery. The Lyceta is a smaller and more intimate space for your special day. This room is separated from the Lyceum by pull-down partions. Therefore, this area can be easily set for a small wedding or reception. Likewise, you can rent it with The Lyceum as a cocktail reception area, buffet line, or dance floor. The full stage area is perfect for your live band or DJ. Nestled between The Lyceum and First Lutheran Church’s main sanctuary next door is a relaxing, beautifully-landscaped courtyard. The courtyard is kept private by wrought-iron fencing. Also, a Victorian-style Gazebo has lights and electrical outlets. Therefore, you can have your food or beverage vendor set up an open bar. Or, your musicians can plug in their speakers. Finally, the overhead lights provide a beautiful overhead to ensure a relaxing ambiance.
