Wedding Photographers & Videographers at Saints Cyril and Methodius Church, Windber

Saints Cyril and Methodius Church stands on Graham Avenue in Windber, a Catholic parish named for the two brothers who carried the faith to the Slavic peoples. A wedding there is a wedding in a small-town church, where your wedding photos on the front walk can include the street and the neighbors stopping to wave. Talk with your photographer and videographer about pictures out front as you leave together.

Your wedding ceremony takes place in the church, which holds Sunday Mass at noon along with a few weekday Masses and monthly adoration. Very little about the building is published online, so a visit matters more here than at most churches. Walk the aisle, see how much daylight comes in at the hour you want, and let your wedding videographer choose where to stand for the processional and the vows. Ask, too, about music and whether the parish has an organist for weddings.

The parish does not have its own website, so the way in is a phone call to the parish office at (814) 467-7042 or a message through its Facebook page. Other parishes in the Diocese of Altoona-Johnstown ask couples to begin about nine months ahead under the diocesan marriage policy, with marriage preparation and a premarital inventory, so call early and plan the rest of your wedding day around the date the parish gives you.

• Call the parish office early to ask about dates and preparation.
• Visit the church with your photographer before the wedding.
• Ask about photo and video guidelines for the ceremony.
