First Congregational Church is a little camera-shy (for now).

Our local photographers haven't added photos from here yet. If you're getting married here, say the word and we'll round them up. Nothing gets a photographer moving like a couple who has already booked the place.

About First Congregational Church

A wedding at First Congregational Church on East Broad Street in Columbus happens under a vaulted Gothic ceiling about 67 feet high, with stained glass on every side and two Renaissance tapestries from Brussels hanging in the transepts. It seats up to 500 guests, and for wedding photos and wedding video the light through the rose window and the long nave make a grand setting. The church's booklet lets photographers and videographers use the gallery during the ceremony, and video can also be made from fixed spots beside the front pillars in the side aisles.

Before the ceremony, pictures can be taken in the parlor, the chapel, the narthex, the sanctuary, the bride's room or outside, in places your wedding coordinator approves. There are rooms for the bride and for the groom and groomsmen, and the large Parish Hall, with hardwood floors and a stage, can be rented for gatherings, wedding receptions among them. Alcohol isn't allowed in the church or on its grounds.

Your package includes the sanctuary and wedding room for the rehearsal and ceremony, at least three meetings with a minister (or you can invite your own as co-officiant), a wedding coordinator, an organist and off-street parking. The music is the star: a chancel organ and a gallery organ with more than 8,000 pipes between them. Your wedding day has a set block of hours that covers flowers, ceremony and every picture, so plan the timeline tightly.

  • Call the church office for a tour and to request your date.
  • Share the photography and videography policy with your photographer and videographer early; flash isn't used during the ceremony.
  • Book the music consultation about two months ahead.

A little about First Congregational Church

First Church traces its roots to an abolitionist congregation of 1852. The present neo-Gothic church was dedicated in 1931, the year its chancel organ was built; the gallery organ arrived from Hamburg in 1972. It is an open and affirming congregation that welcomes all couples.
