Wedding Photographers & Videographers at Saint John Vianney Church, Johnstown

Saint John Vianney Church sits among the rolling hills of Mundys Corner near Johnstown, and a wedding there has a country-parish feel. The church grounds include a small shrine with a statue of Saint John Vianney between the rectory and the church, and the original church bell hangs near the entrance, two easy spots for wedding photos with your family. A paved parking lot keeps arrivals simple for guests, your photographer and your videographer.

Inside, your wedding ceremony takes place in a church built without pillars in the body of the church, so guests have open sight lines to the altar and your wedding videographer has a clear view of the processional and the vows. The stained glass windows show scenes from the life of Saint John Vianney, the parish priest of Ars in France. The parish has an adult choir, and its hall, the Saint John Vianney Quinn Center, sits on the same property; ask whether it is available on your wedding day.

Couples are asked to contact the office before setting a date, at least nine months ahead, to allow the marriage preparation period required by diocesan policy. Each couple attends Pre-Cana instructions and takes the FOCCUS inventory, and the parish encourages regular Sunday Mass and confession during your preparation.

• Call the parish office at least nine months before your date.
• Sign up for Pre-Cana and the inventory early.
• Ask about photo and video guidelines and whether the Quinn Center can be booked.
