Tabi and Ryan got married at The Parish House on Halloween, and wanted us to help them indulge their affinity for the creepiness and drama of the holiday and work it into their own one-of-a-kind ceremony. The result was just as fun and unique as the pictures show, and one of our favorite weddings we've had here. 

Tabi was happy with her experience. "The Parish House and owners are everything you could want or need in a wedding venue. Patty goes above and beyond the call of duty as owner, decorator, planner, supplier of all the little details and ideas the bride may miss or forget. You could 100% plan a wedding with Patty and not have to bring anything but yourself, but she will also work with you if you are an unusual couple like us. We had a Halloween wedding this past weekend, and to find such a beautiful, inclusive venue that would still allow us to be creepy, spooky, and goofy, without any judgement or side glances, it was more than I ever hoped for. I cannot speak highly enough about The Parish House on Union. All of my princess/vampire dreams came true!"

When you are short on time, an all-inclusive venue can really make a big difference. One experienced point of contact for all of your wedding details can make a complicated day flow smoothly for you. 

Justin and Moriah's whirlwind romance just seemed right, and they wanted to move on as husband and wife. Justin writes, "My now wife and I had a very short engagement and were left with a very short time frame (4-5 months) to plan a wedding of our dreams. 

"We looked into multiple venues but had a hard time finding availability or a place we both thought was right. The moment we stepped into The Parish House and met Patty, we knew this was the perfect place. Patty and her husband have done a wonderful job restoring and transforming the 100+ year old church into the perfect place to hold a wedding or event. We were able to have the ceremony, reception, rehearsal dinner, and a full dance hall all in one place, that saved our many out of state family members the struggle of moving from spot to spot. 

"Patty also offered wonderful and very customizable meals for both the rehearsal dinner and the reception with her in-house chef. I have several food allergens and she made sure I was taken care of. If it wasn’t for Patty’s help every step of the way I don’t think we could have pulled off such a beautiful wedding. The bride and I both recommend The Parish House if you are looking for a church wedding with the customization of a typical venue. Thank you Patty!"

While the bones of The Parish House on Union have been here for 150 years, she still gets new decorations, decor and florals depending on the time of year. All of which, we like to point out, is included at no additional charge.

But while seasonal decorations are always fun no matter the time of year, nothing holds a candle (pun intended) to our decorations at Christmas time. 

Maria loved her Christmas wedding. "This is the perfect wedding venue! Patty went above and beyond, helping us plan and coordinate major details we didn't think about and with so many tips for saving money. 

"The venue is so beautifully decorated for any season, but especially our Christmas wedding was truly decked out with elegant trees and lights. We got the most beautiful photos and many many compliments from our guests, especially when the ceremony room transformed into an enchanting dance floor after the delicious meal."

When we say "all-inclusive", we mean that we are going to make sure we do everything we can to make sure your wedding day is as beautiful as we can make it.

Ashton and Chris had a wonderful day, and they were nice enough to pass along their recommendation. "We had my wedding the Parish House on Union and worked with Patty and her husband! They were amazing and the venue was beautiful!! 

"The price was incomparable to other venues we looked at, especially for everything Patty offered. She and her awesome staff took care of decoration set up and tear down, lunches for the wedding party, provided areas for us to get ready, printed our menus, she was willing to print our seating chart, coordinated the whole day wonderfully, and has a great cook that makes a wide variety of delicious food! 

"It was a magical day and it couldn’t have gone as well without all the work Patty put into it and the countless meetings and questions she answered from me! I highly recommend for anyone looking for a special place for their special day!"
