14 Beautiful Old Churches in Lebanon & the Vintage Wedding Cars We'd Pair with Them

We visited and photographed 14 beautiful old churches across Lebanon, then chose a vintage wedding car from our collection to complement the style and setting of each one.

By Eweeha•

Lebanon is home to beautiful old village churches, where stone architecture, quiet surroundings and historic character create memorable settings for traditional weddings. They also pair exceptionally well with the style of vintage wedding cars.

At Eweeha, we specialize in wedding car rental in Lebanon, helping couples choose a car that complements the style, location and atmosphere of their wedding day.

For this purpose, we visited and photographed these churches around Lebanon, and each one stood out for a different reason, whether it was the architecture, the road leading to the church, the surrounding landscape or simply the atmosphere of the place.

If you are planning a church wedding in Lebanon, here are 14 beautiful locations worth discovering.

1. St. John the Baptist in Raachine

Right in the middle of lush trees and classic village charm, this small church in Raachine has an intimate character that immediately feels different from a large city church.

Its modest scale and peaceful surroundings make it especially attractive for couples who prefer an authentic Lebanese village atmosphere.

Recommended Match: Looking at the beautiful scenery around this church, I can totally picture a classic 1960s convertible Ford parked right by the wooden door and old stairs! It would make such a charming and memorable setting for a wedding shoot at this mountain village.

2. Mar Abda – Harhraya, Qattine

Mar Abda stands out with its rich, weathered masonry and classic bell tower. The real highlight sits on its left side: a rugged, cave like grotto crafted from rough stone, creating a stunning, natural backdrop. Nestled against vibrant foliage, the church brings a timeless "old Lebanon" soul to intimate celebrations, feeling authentic rather than staged.

Recommended Match: While several classic vehicles would look wonderful in this courtyard for the bride’s arrival, we highly recommend the vintage Daimler half-limousine. It complements the heritage of the venue beautifully!

3. Mar Yaacoub – Dlebta, Keserwan

Far from ordinary, Mar Yaacoub, Dlebta in Keserwan, stands out with its unique fortress style roofline and a magnificent carved stone bell tower. Set against a steep mountain, covered with pine trees and dotted with classic red roofed homes, the church grounds feature terraced stairways and timeless stone arches, making a bridal arrival in a classic wedding car look legendary.

Recommended Match: Take a look at the all-white Excalibur convertible as an option for this location.

4. Notre Dame Al Habachieh – Ghazir

Notre Dame Al Habachieh in Ghazir offers an iconic setting tailored for wedding moments.

Its broad stone entrance staircase creates a natural stage for the bride's arrival, framed by dark iron railings and warm, weathered masonry. With tiered outdoor steps in the back, a slender stone bell tower, and cypress trees lining the background, the entire courtyard gives photographer-friendly angles from every side.

Recommended Match: If you're looking for the right car to match this venue, check out the Bentley 1953 to see how it fits with this church.

5. Notre Dame de la Paix – Kfarhbab

Notre Dame de la Paix feels like a quiet piece of history, rich in rustic detail.

Its facade features a weathered wooden entrance door framed by an arched lintel, a narrow high old style window, and an open stone belfry with a classic bell pull. To the side, a vaulted stone portico offers a shaded, atmospheric gathering spot that gives wedding photos a real cozy vintage feel.

Recommended Match: If you're looking for wedding car ideas to fit this church we recommend the old navy blue, luxury 1970 Rolls-Royce Corniche.

6. Notre Dame du Rosaire – Ghadir

The tall bell towers are what immediately distinguish Notre Dame du Rosaire in Ghadir.

Its light-colored façade and symmetrical architecture create a more formal appearance than many of the smaller village churches in this guide. For a traditional church arrival, it offers the kind of backdrop that immediately feels ceremonial.

Recommended Match: Rolls-Royce Ghost – Black & White Edition

Its sleek two-tone style perfectly matches the grand, symmetrical look of Notre Dame du Rosaire, adding a touch of modern luxury to a classic ceremonial arrival.

7. Notre Dame de Secours – Maounet, Haret Sakher

Notre Dame de Secours in Haret Sakher is made for a truly glorious bridal arrival.

Its light limestone facade is crowned with castellated stone battlements and features vibrant blue window latticework that stands out brilliantly against the masonry.

The arched stone portico and carved columns frame the main doorway, opening onto a wide, paved courtyard lined with greenery—creating a magnificent, picture-perfect stage as the couple steps out of the car.

Recommended Match: If you are looking for premier wedding photo shoot ideas in Lebanon, this venue pairs exceptionally well with a statement vehicle. You can opt for an ultra-luxury Rolls-Royce Cullinan, or any of our luxury classic cars, each selected to complement the chapel's majestic façade.

8. Saint John Marc – Jbeil

Jbeil brings something different to a wedding setting: history is visible almost everywhere around you.

The stone textures surrounding Saint John Marc give photographs a sense of age and place that is difficult to recreate at a modern venue. A classic car fits naturally into that environment, especially for couples building their wedding around a traditional Lebanese aesthetic.

Recommended Match: Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow

Standing beside the ancient stone textures of Saint John Marc, modern luxury cars can feel out of place. While a traditional horse and carriage would complement the venue's medieval charm, the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow serves as its perfect modern heir, offering vintage grandeur, exceptional photographic depth, and a graceful nod to old world elegance.

9. Saint Michel – Jdeidet Ghazir

Saint Michel is one of the more understated churches on the list.

Its simple façade and uncluttered surroundings suit couples who want something traditional without choosing a setting that feels overly grand or formal.

Sometimes the simpler background also allows the couple, flowers and wedding car to become the strongest elements in the photograph.

Recommended Match: Maserati Quattroporte, Jaguar XF, or Jaguar XJL, sleek, elegant sedans that complement the venue’s refined simplicity without feeling out of place.

10. Saint Simon – Ghosta

Saint Simon has the familiar stone construction found in many of Lebanon's older village churches, but the space around it is what makes the location particularly useful for weddings.

The more open surroundings give photographers room to work with different angles instead of being restricted to a single shot directly in front of the entrance.

That can make a noticeable difference when photographing a longer vintage car.

11. Saint George – Kfaryassine

Saint George in Kfaryassine is simple, compact and distinctly traditional.

Its understated stone exterior gives the location a warm village feeling rather than the scale of a large ceremonial church. It is particularly appealing for couples who want their wedding photographs to feel intimate and natural.

12. Saint George – Sahel Alma

What makes Saint George in Sahel Alma especially interesting is the approach to the church.

Instead of thinking only about photographs after the car is parked, the road and greenery create an opportunity to photograph the arrival itself.

A bride arriving in a vintage car with the church appearing ahead can often create a more memorable image than a posed photograph beside the vehicle.

Recommended Match: Lead with the primary bridal vehicle, we recommend a Rolls-Royce, followed by matching black support vehicles or executive SUVs. A longer convoy slow-rolling up the approach creates a grand sense of arrival that draws attention before the car even comes to a full stop.

13. Saint George – Tabarja, Keserwan

Saint George in Tabarja has a compact design, rounded exterior and small bell tower that give it plenty of character without making it feel imposing.

That smaller scale creates a more intimate atmosphere, particularly for couples planning a traditional wedding with a smaller church ceremony.

14. Saint Nohra – Fatqa

Saint Nohra in Fatqa combines stone steps, mature trees and a simple church façade into a setting that feels very natural.

Nothing about the surroundings needs to be overly staged. The architecture and landscape already provide enough character for beautiful wedding day photographs.

Recommended Match: Mercedes G-Class

Set against the clean, square stone architecture of Saint Nohra, the sharp, boxy silhouette of the G-Class is a natural fit. Its strong geometric lines directly mirror the church's traditional build, keeping your arrival aligned with the venue's simple, authentic look.

Your Church Is Part of the Wedding Story

Choosing a wedding car is not only about getting from one location to another.

The church, the route, the wedding style and the car all appear together throughout the day. When those elements complement one another, even something as simple as the bride arriving at the church can become one of the photographs you remember most.
