There are thousands of social service agencies, both publicly and privately funded, as well as individual caregivers. Information and access to these services is fragmented. Many providers do not even have a presence on the web. Consumers of social services need help finding available and accessible resources quickly and in one place. iNforma Nation offers verified information such as links to resource sites, articles, community events, professional and educational workshops, and more for free. Professionals and agencies alike can add free resource and event content, and consumers can use the site to request help in finding the resources or information they need.

Elopements, Biker Weddings, and Intimate Ceremonies: Saying 'I Do' at America's Smallest Church

 If you’re dreaming of an intimate, no-fuss wedding with a dash of charm and adventure, look no further than Our Lady of the Pines Catholic Church—the smallest church in the contiguous United States. This tiny sanctuary, nestled in the heart of West Virginia, offers the perfect backdrop for elopements, biker weddings, and cozy ceremonies with a guest list of 15 or fewer.

As an ordained minister through the American Marriage Ministries since March 3rd, 2024, I am thrilled to offer this unique venue as my go-to spot for couples looking to tie the knot. The church's quaint size, accommodating just 12 guests (or six couples) with six small pews, creates an intimate and personal experience for every wedding.

While the church’s caretakers remain a bit of a mystery, I plan to leave a donation for every ceremony I officiate—unless instructed otherwise. Each ceremony will take about 10 minutes, ensuring we won’t disrupt other visitors who come to enjoy this charming site.


Since Our Lady of the Pines is a serene stop rather than a traditional event space, couples will need to get ready at their chosen lodging or reception venue. For those seeking a little extra pampering, I offer beauty packages that include photography, makeup, hair, nails, and eyelash services. As a certified eyelash technician and makeup artist, I bring expertise and care to help brides (and grooms!) look their best, while keeping things budget-friendly and stress-free.

Whether you’re rolling in on a Harley, planning a sweet elopement, or keeping things small with your nearest and dearest, this tiny church offers big possibilities for a memorable and meaningful wedding day.

Stay tuned for more details on booking your ceremony at Our Lady of the Pines and for inspiration on creating your perfect small wedding experience!
