Wedding Photographers & Videographers at Sacred Heart Catholic Church, New Philadelphia

A wedding at Sacred Heart Catholic Church brings you to Third Street NE in New Philadelphia, to an active parish church in the Diocese of Columbus. For your photographer and videographer, the day follows the familiar shape of a Catholic wedding: guests arriving at the doors, the processional down the aisle, your vows at the altar, and the walk back out together as a married couple.

Your wedding ceremony takes place in the church, and the parish asks couples to contact its director of faith formation at least four months before the wedding. The parish offers pre-marital counseling and preparation, so you'll have help with more than the date on the calendar. Sacred Heart also has its own music ministry, so ask early about musicians and what music works for the ceremony, since the processional and the vows are the moments your wedding video will return to most.

Plan your wedding reception at a separate venue in the Tuscarawas County area. Before your wedding day, visit the church with your photographer and wedding videographer, ideally at the time of day your ceremony will start, so they can see how the light falls and where they can stand during Mass. Ask how much time there is afterward for family wedding photos inside the church, then head to your reception.

• Contact the director of faith formation at least four months ahead.
• Plan time for pre-marital counseling and preparation.
• Ask the parish about photo and video guidelines before your photographer plans the timing.
