Weddings and Ceremonies at Hope Unitarian Church
Located on a wooded hilltop in South Tulsa, Hope Unitarian Church offers a peaceful and welcoming setting for weddings and life celebrations. As part of our mission to support love, community, and meaningful life transitions, we open our space to couples seeking a ceremony that reflects their values and beliefs.
We joyfully welcome spiritual, interfaith, secular, and LGBTQ+ couples to celebrate in a setting grounded in inclusion, authenticity, and connection.
Ceremony Spaces
Couples may choose from several beautiful spaces on our campus:
- Sanctuary – An indoor space with seating for up to 200 guests, filled with natural light and views of the surrounding landscape
- Outdoor Gardens – Natural, tree-filled spaces that provide a serene backdrop for ceremonies of all sizes
Each setting offers a calm, nature-connected environment for meaningful gatherings.

Use of our facilities for weddings includes access to shared spaces that support your ceremony and gathering, such as:

These spaces are part of our broader campus, which supports congregational life, education, and community events.
