In the last year, the Instagram-famous Wayfarers Chapel in Rancho Palos Verdes, Southern California, has held an estimated 400 weddings in the glass-walled structure overlooking the ocean, costing each couple US$5,400 (RM25,295) – and more if they scheduled their nuptials on a weekend or opted for the floral or candle add-ons.
But despite its steep fees, the popular wedding venue is facing a growing financial crisis. The accelerating landslide complex on which it sits is cracking, crushing and threatening the entire property, forcing its indefinite closure, while much-needed restoration work has fallen by the wayside.
Uh-oh! Daily quota reached.
