About The First Presbyterian Church in Philadelphia

A wedding at The First Presbyterian Church in Philadelphia puts you on the corner of 21st and Walnut, a few blocks from Rittenhouse Square in Center City. The sanctuary seats about 400 guests, so the long walk down the aisle gives your photographer and videographer a full processional to work with, and the chancel up front is where you'll stand for your vows. A small wedding of under 50 guests can be held entirely in the chancel, with family close around you in the surrounding pews.

Your wedding ceremony here is a service of Christian worship, led by the minister and planned with you in a series of meetings once your date is confirmed. Both members and non-members can apply. The church's director of music oversees all the music, and your own soloist or instrumentalist is welcome with the director's approval. On the wedding day, there are waiting rooms for each of you and your attendants (there are no dressing rooms, so plan to arrive already dressed), and the church provides one or two people to help as coordinators at the rehearsal and the ceremony.

For wedding photos, the church has published photography guidelines worth reading early. Posed pictures in the chancel can happen before or after the service, and a wedding videographer can set up in the rear gallery, which is a good place to take in the whole aisle. Old Buttonwood Hall, inside the church, holds 125 to 150 people for a reception or rehearsal dinner.

Call the church administrator to request a Wedding Application; the minister approves each date.
Read the photography guidelines with your photographer and videographer.
Ask about Old Buttonwood Hall if you'd like your reception in the same building.
