The staff at St. Joseph Church are thrilled about your engagement, and we look forward to helping both of you prepare for the wedding and for the marriage. Wedding can be held here for

We realize that preparing for your marriage might well be your most involved connection with our parish up until now. That’s okay. We would like to make you feel that you chose the absolutely right place to prepare for your new life together. If we are lucky, perhaps you will become a more involved and active parishioner after the wedding day. We promise to do our best to make sure that the preparations and the years ahead are blessed by your association with Saint Joseph Church.

St. Joseph Church loves hosting beautiful, unforgettable weddings! With soaring ceilings, breathtaking stained glass, beautiful statuary, a 150 ft. aisle, all set against the dramatic sanctuary and arch mosaic, many people’s first impression of the church building is awe-inspiring. We are sure your guests will talk about your ceremony for years to come.

Both the church and the chapel are available for the Sacrament of Marriage, provided the bride or groom is a practicing Catholic and has completed the necessary wedding preparations. We are happy to enter into your wedding journey with you. 

Couples desiring traditional architecture in a historic church may be interested in Saint Joseph Church, while those seeking a smaller ceremony may be interested in the Saint Joseph Chapel.
