Our Story

A Gift from Our Family to Yours

Farmerville is our hometown – the place where we grew up, built relationships, and learned to appreciate the strong sense of community that makes this area so special. When planning BelleWood Chapel, we knew we wanted to keep the business close to home while also creating something that could bring additional opportunity and growth to the community we love. The idea for the venue originally began with Isabella, one of the owners. What started as a vision for a beautiful place to host her wedding quickly grew into something much bigger – a venue where every bride could feel elegant, celebrated, and unforgettable on her wedding day. That vision inspired the design of BelleWood Chapel – bringing back the feeling of weddings in the church, overlooking the beauty of the pond and surrounding property, while also protecting couples and guests from Louisiana’s unpredictable weather with two fully enclosed and climate-controlled buildings. Designed to accommodate over 250 guests, the venue was created to be both breathtaking and functional. We have been able to remain hands-on throughout the process and provide a personal experience for every couple who chooses BelleWood Chapel.

Isabella Patton | Owner & Operations Manager

For Isabella, weddings have always been about more than just a single day – they are about creating moments people will remember for the rest of their lives. Ever since she was young, she has been drawn to work that serves others and brings people together in meaningful ways. As BelleWood Chapel began to take shape, Isabella became deeply involved in every part of the design and planning process. From the overall atmosphere of the venue to the smallest details, her goal has always been to create a space that feels timeless, welcoming, and intentional for every couple who walks through the doors. After celebrating her own wedding at BelleWood Chapel, Isabella looks forward to helping couples create memories that feel personal, joyful, and unforgettable while offering the kind of warmth and hospitality that makes people instantly feel at home.
