A wedding at St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church takes place in the parish's Historic Church on West High Street, right in downtown Gettysburg. Look up when you walk in: the parish is preparing a guide to the meaning of the motifs on the Historic Church ceiling, and that ceiling is worth a wide wedding picture from the back of the aisle. For your wedding photos and video, natural light matters here, because the parish doesn't allow flash during the ceremony.

Your wedding ceremony is a Catholic liturgy, and you'll choose your Scripture readings and prayers near the end of marriage preparation. A parish wedding planner helps with the liturgy and especially the music, which must be chosen at least 30 days ahead so a parish organist and cantor can prepare. The organ and cantor give your wedding videographer lovely sound for the processional. Your photographer is free to take pictures at the priest's direction and should meet the priest beforehand.

Plan well ahead. You'll need to meet a priest and begin marriage preparation before a date can be scheduled, and preparation takes nine to twelve months, with a questionnaire, sessions with a mentor couple and a retreat. The rehearsal lasts one hour. Outside, rice, confetti and bird seed aren't allowed, but you may use bubbles on the church steps for your send-off.

  • Fill out the parish's online form to start marriage preparation at least nine to twelve months before your date.
  • Read the parish guidelines with your photographer and videographer.
  • Plan your music with the parish wedding planner at least 30 days before the wedding day.
