WEDDING FAQ’s

  • No, it is not necessary to be married by one of St. Matthews' Pastors. We do ask for information regarding the affiliation of the minister or officiant of your wedding.

  • We have an amazing Cassavant organ and a grand piano in our Sanctuary. If you are interested in having your own musician play our grand piano or organ, approval will be required by the Diaconal Minister of Music. An additional cost will be required. See Rental Rates for more information.

  • Unfortunately our sanctuary is not air conditioned, but we do have a few fans available.

  • Yes, but please note that neither real nor artificial petals are allowed in the sanctuary. Absolutely no thumbtacks, nails, etc. may be used for decorating anywhere in the church. Confetti and rice are prohibited for exit from church.
