About The Gahanna Sanctuary

A wedding at The Gahanna Sanctuary takes place inside a real Gothic Revival church, the only one of its kind in Gahanna. Its stained glass windows fill Sanctuary Hall with colored light, a lovely glow for wedding photos and video as you walk down the aisle and stand together for your vows. Out back, a terrace and patio strung with bistro lights give your photographer a second, softer setting once evening comes.

Everything can happen under one roof. You can hold the wedding ceremony and reception here for up to 280 guests, with Sanctuary Hall, The Gallery Room and the terrace all included, along with a private bridal suite and a separate space for the groom. A large prep kitchen sits ready for your caterer, and free parking is right at the building. The Creekside District is a few minutes away, and I-270 and the airport are close for traveling guests.

This is a do-it-yourself venue, which keeps it flexible. You choose any caterer and DJ you like, with no approved-vendor list, and the rental includes tables, 300 chairs and the kitchen. The building has no liquor license, so ask what is allowed for alcohol. Because the building is historic, nothing can be fixed to the walls or ceilings, open-flame candles aren't allowed (battery candles are), and petals tossed outside must be real. For your wedding videographer, a hall built for worship carries voices and music well, so talk about microphones for the vows and toasts. Your wedding day timeline should include setup and cleanup time.

Tours are by appointment; email or call to set one up.
Walk the hall, terrace and patio with your photographer at the time of day you plan to get married.
Ask about photo and video guidelines and decoration rules before you plan the room.

A little about The Gahanna Sanctuary

The building was raised in 1895 as the second Peace Lutheran Church, using bricks from the congregation's first church, and its stained glass dates from that year. After the congregation moved in the 1960s, neighbors formed a nonprofit to save and restore it; it joined the National Register of Historic Places in 1987 and was renovated again in 2024.

Check the location's own photo and video rules

Locations set their own rules about where photographers and videographers can stand, when they can take photos or film, and whether vendors need approval. We don't state those rules here.

Ask The Gahanna Sanctuary directly or check its website.
