St. Valentine 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 St. Valentine Church

A wedding at St. Valentine Church in Bethel Park keeps to a tidy, early-afternoon schedule. Saturday weddings here start no later than 2:00 p.m., because the church has a late-afternoon Mass, so your photographer and videographer will be working in midday light and on a set clock. Our Lady of Hope Parish lets your photographer take pictures at the center aisle during the procession and recession, which means the walk down the aisle and the walk back up as a married couple can both make it into your wedding photos.

The wedding ceremony can be a full Mass or a ceremony without Mass. The wedding party may arrive up to an hour before the start, and everyone should leave within 30 minutes of the end. The parish suggests skipping a receiving line at church: right after the recessional, the wedding party slips back to the front of the church by a side aisle or entrance for pictures. Since parishioners arrive for the Saturday vigil Mass, plan not to linger after the last photo.

Our Lady of Hope's booklet includes photo and video guidelines. During the liturgy there's no flash and no extra lighting, and cameras stay out of the sanctuary. Your videographer films from a fixed position, usually a sacristy or altar doorway, and the parish advises battery-powered gear because outlets may not be nearby. Flowers are optional most of the year, and an aisle runner is up to you. The parish asks that the bride or groom ordinarily be a registered, participating parishioner for six months; couples coming home to be married can register in their own parish and ask that pastor's permission.

Contact one of the parish priests or deacons at least six months before your wedding day.
Sign up for a diocesan or parish marriage preparation program.

Check the location's own photo and video rules

Locations set their own rules about where photographers and videographers can stand, when they can take photos or film, and whether vendors need approval. We don't state those rules here.
