Wedding Photographers & Videographers at The Presbyterian Church of Falling Spring, Chambersburg

A wedding at The Presbyterian Church of Falling Spring in Chambersburg gives you a choice of two very different rooms. The Chapel, built of local stone and brick, hosts weddings and is known for acoustics so good that even an untrained singer sounds remarkable inside. The Sanctuary is larger and grander, with stained glass windows, pew doors at the end of each row and a towering pipe organ that spans an entire wall. Either way, your photographer and videographer have a lot of character to work with on your wedding day.

Its facilities policy lets individuals, members or not, request the Sanctuary or the Chapel for an event, so you can choose the room that fits the size of your wedding ceremony. For your wedding video, the Chapel's acoustics make the vows and music easy to hear, while the Sanctuary's organ gives a processional real weight. Outside, the old graveyard and the church grounds along North Main Street are part of the property's long story; ask before planning wedding photos there.

Events here follow clear rules: a church representative is present, pews are never moved, no glitter or confetti, no alcohol on the property, decorations can't be fastened to walls or floors, and everything wraps up by 9 p.m. You book with the online Facilities Request Form and a deposit once the date is cleared. Parking is in the lined spaces of the three church lots.

• Decide between the Chapel and the Sanctuary, then send the Facilities Request Form.
• Read the facilities use policy before planning decorations.
• Ask about photo and video guidelines and the organ.

A little about Falling Spring

The congregation is one of the earliest Presbyterian churches west of the Susquehanna, and the town's founder is buried in its cemetery. The Chapel was built in 1877 as a temporary home while the Sanctuary was rebuilt after the Civil War, and it proved so useful that it was kept.
