Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church in Glenview is a beautiful choice for a ceremony, known for its stunning architecture and vibrant community. We’ve filmed a wedding here and know the church’s guidelines and rhythm well.
A Wedding We Have Filmed at Our Lady of Perpetual Help
Hannah & Sean’s October wedding included a traditional ceremony here, with the wedding party entering to Pachelbel’s “Canon in D,” Hannah walking the aisle with her father to Bach’s “Prelude,” and the couple’s recessional to Handel’s “Water Music,” before the celebration moved to the Glen View Club for the reception.
Planning a Wedding at Our Lady of Perpetual Help
Start by contacting the parish office well in advance to inquire about available dates and begin the booking process. You’ll typically schedule an initial meeting with a priest or wedding coordinator, and couples are required to complete a Pre-Cana marriage preparation program along with documentation such as baptismal and confirmation certificates.
The church has guidelines for music and decorations to preserve its sanctity, and photographers and videographers are expected to follow specific rules during the ceremony, we coordinate with the parish ahead of time to make sure our coverage fits within them. The church does not host receptions, so most couples pair a ceremony here with a nearby reception venue.
