About St. Joseph Church (Dayton)

A wedding at St. Joseph Church in downtown Dayton takes place in an Italian Byzantine church with a tower set back toward the sanctuary and steel pillars finished in scagliola to look like marble. Three Archangel windows rise above the altar. For your photographer and videographer, the 90-foot center aisle frames a long processional and gives room for wedding photos down the aisle.

St. Joseph hosts the wedding ceremony, as a Nuptial Mass or a ceremony without Mass, and the parish is known for its outstanding music program. In most cases the church is available one hour before the wedding, and the Parish Life Center conference room can be used for dressing if parish scheduling allows. Under the parish guidelines, pictures are welcome before and after the wedding and during the processional and recessional; once the ceremony begins, only non-flash photography and video are allowed, from outside the altar area.

Timing matters here: Saturday weddings are at 1:30 or 2 p.m., and all wedding activity, pictures included, needs to be finished by 3:30, so plan the reception start time and travel with that in mind. Music is chosen with the parish's Director of Music, who approves all music and musicians, and prerecorded music isn't used in the church.

  • The bride or groom (or a parent or grandparent) must have been a registered parishioner of Emmanuel/St. Joseph for at least a year.
  • Set the date at least six months ahead for marriage preparation.
  • Read the parish photo and video guidelines and share them with your photographer and videographer before your wedding day.

A little about St. Joseph Church

Founded in 1846, St. Joseph was Dayton's first English-speaking Catholic parish, mostly for Irish families. The present church was completed in 1910, and the 3,600-pound bell from the first church still hangs in its tower.
