Toronto's Stackt Market, the city's shipping container market, will soon be home to a new shipping container wedding chapel venue called Love Shack, which will offer affordable and intimate ways for couples to tie the knot. Countless 2020 weddings have been disrupted due to a global pandemic, leading to many planned events being postponed or cancelled altogether. Love Shack offers packages like Have a Quicky for $650, which gives guests an hour to use the space and have an officiated ceremony with up to10 guests.
The Full Monty comes in at $2,500 and it is a package that accommodates 15 guests and includes flowers and a photographer for the event. Although Ontario is permitting up to 30 people to attend indoor weddings, the shipping container wedding chapel helps to keep ceremonies even more intimate.
