Wedding Photographers & Videographers at Our Lady of Lourdes Church (Weatherly), Weatherly

A wedding at Our Lady of Lourdes Church in Weatherly puts your ceremony on Plane Street, at a Catholic church that is now a worship site of All Saints Parish in the Diocese of Allentown. Mass is celebrated here every Sunday morning, and the parish describes itself as a welcoming community that invites everyone to share their prayers, presence and talents. Before you plan your wedding photos and video, visit with your photographer and videographer so they can see the light, the aisle for your processional and where the parish allows them to stand.

All Saints Parish follows the Diocese of Allentown's policy for engaged couples: meet with your parish priest and attend preparation classes at least one year before your proposed wedding date, and no later than six months before. Call the parish office to make an appointment with the pastor. Because the parish has more than one church, ask at that first meeting whether your wedding ceremony can be held at Our Lady of Lourdes, and what the parish asks of couples who don't live in the parish.

Your readings, music and the shape of the ceremony are planned with the priest. Share the plan with your wedding videographer, since the music and the vows carry the sound of your wedding film, and ask where the musicians and readers will be. Ask about photo and video guidelines during the liturgy, and save time on the wedding day for family pictures once the ceremony ends. With only one Sunday Mass at this church, ask about Saturday availability early.

• Call the All Saints parish office at least a year ahead, and no later than six months before.
• Plan time for the diocesan preparation classes.
• Ask about photo and video guidelines and which church the parish suggests for your wedding.
