A wedding at St. Paul Cathedral in Pittsburgh starts with one of the longest walks in the city. The cathedral stands on Fifth Avenue at North Craig Street in Oakland, and inside, about eighty pews line a main aisle the parish itself describes as long. For your photographer and videographer, that aisle is the heart of the day: a slow processional toward the altar, with the cathedral's renowned pipe organ filling the room around you.

Your wedding ceremony can be a full Nuptial Mass or a ceremony without Mass. The cathedral sets aside two permanent spots for tripods, and cameras may also go up to the choir loft as long as they stay out of the organist's line of sight, which gives your videographer a view of the whole aisle from above. When the weather is kind, wedding photos can be taken on the lawn at the Holy Family Garden on the cathedral grounds. Posed pictures inside the cathedral are only allowed with the coordinator's permission, because another wedding or service usually follows yours.

This is a ceremony church, so your reception will be somewhere else. Ceremonies are held on Friday afternoons and at two set times on Saturdays, and each party has a set window to arrive and to clear out before the next one. Music is arranged only through the cathedral's wedding office; an organist and cantor are standard, and guest soloists perform from the loft.

  • Contact the cathedral's office at least six months before your date; it handles requests in the order they arrive.
  • Share the photographer and videographer guidelines with your team early, since the cathedral asks them to sign and return the form before your wedding day.
  • Walk the aisle and the Holy Family Garden with your photographer so the timing fits the cathedral's schedule.
