MemberAnyone having their wedding here? Can you give me some insight on the booking process. Mr. Cheesy Potatoes and I were going to get married at my church, however I am a bit hesitant due to the large gap that would occur….
This is definetly my other option but I know its hard to get. Just looking for some help/thoughts.
Thanks!
Member@Cheesy Potatoes: My fiance’s cousin got married there. I could give you her facebook and she could maybe explain it to you? Let me know what you think :-).
Member@Corykru: Aww..thanks for going to the trouble but I’ll just call them. I just thought if there were some girls on here that had already had their weddings I would hear what they had to say!
Thank you anyways! Much appreciated!

MemberI called St. Paul’s to see what dates they had available. They only had one time slot available in November. It was like 2:00 on November 19. Something like that. I guess my only advice would be to book far in advance. It’s a beautiful church though. I got lucky and got Heinz Chapel. We just called St. Paul’s as a back up. Good Luck!
MemberThat is a beautiful church, but I hear it’s popular. My sister got married at Heinz Chapel because my dad is a Pitt alumni. BOth places are beautiful!
MemberIf you haven’t called yet, I am familiar with the booking process :o) I’m a November 2012 bride at St. Paul’s, so I was lucky to have a pick of 2:00 or 4:00. You can message me if you have any questions, though!
Member@Cheesy Potatoes: My daughter is getting married there this fall. They only have 2:00 and 4:00 weddings on Saturdays. There are strict time (and other) limitations and a big cost to reserve this church, but when you step inside…wow! Mrs. Hartmann handles all the details and is very kind and accomodating. I was worried about the time gap between a 2:00 wedding and a 5:30 reception, too, but when you see that the wedding itself is about 1 hour and just getting out the door and into cars and then to the reception takes up time, too. Then you have photos after that and you realize after spending a fortune on photographers/videographers, you really want them to take their time and get a lot of shots while allowing you time to relax and refresh. The time gap allows for that! Good luck in wherever you choose!
MemberMemberJust an fyi – I booked my date with St. Paul’s yesterday (Nov. 3, 2012). Pretty much all of the Oct 4pm slots were already taken which is why I have Nov 3. So I would advise anyone who wants St. Pauls to book ASAP!
MemberI asked for their info a year ago and never recieved it. It was awesome that I never recieved it let me tell you lol
