IRVING WHALLEY MEMORIAL CHAPEL  \nWelcome  \nWe are pleased that you are considering having your wedding at the J.

In this booklet, you’ll find all the information you need for planning your wedding ceremony.  \nEligibility  \nThe use of the Whalley Chapel for a wedding ceremony is available to those with a Pitt affiliation. The bride, groom or at least one of their parents or grandparents must be a graduate, current full-time student or employee of the University of Pittsburgh.  \nAuthorized Ceremony  \nThe marriage must be recognized as valid in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Selection of the officiant is the responsibility of the couple. Because the Chapel is nondenominational, clergy of all denominations are welcome.  \nContact Information  \nThe Conference Center at the University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown Living/Learning Center  \n450 Schoolhouse Road Johnstown, PA 15904 Phone: 814-269-1900  \n[eventupj@pitt.edu](eventupj@pitt.edu)  \n[www.johnstown.pitt.edu/conferences](www.johnstown.pitt.edu/conferences)  \nReserving the Facility  \nTo determine the availability of the Chapel for a desired wedding date and time, please contact the Pitt-Johnstown Conference Center. Reservations are on a first-come, first-served basis. A total of five hours the day of the ceremony and two hours the night before for a rehearsal are reserved for each wedding.  \n*If you are planning a Catholic Ceremony, please refer to Pitt-Johnstown’s Catholic Campus Ministry letter included in this booklet for further instruction. (Page 4)  \nPayment  \nThe rental fee for the Chapel is $800.00, to be paid in full at time of reservation confirmation. Once a satisfactory date/time is determined, the initial Reservation Form and full payment must be sent in the form of check (made payable to the University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown) or credit card.  \nFinal Information  \nThe Final Information Form must be submitted no later than three weeks prior to the ceremony. This will ensure we have the correct information and details for your special day.  \nCancellation  \nPitt-Johnstown will refund $300.00 of the Chapel fee if the reservation is canceled within ninety (90) days of the scheduled ceremony date. Cancellation must be in writing from only the bride or groom.  \nMusic/Sound System  \nIt is the responsibility of the couple to provide musicians/music. The Chapel is equipped with an organ, electric piano, and the capability to play pre-recorded music. A Pitt-Johnstown staff member will be at the Chapel with you the night of the rehearsal and the day of the ceremony. They will assist with the arrangement of any audio needs.  \nIf your musician(s) wish to practice before the actual event, they should contact the Conference Center to arrange a time during the normal hours of operation (Monday-Friday 8:30am-4:30pm. ) If these times are not suitable, they can practice before the rehearsal or wedding, if the schedule permits.  \nAdditional Guidelines  \nThe following guidelines have been established based on past experiences and are designed to help make your special day a complete success:  \n1. No rice or birdseed may be thrown due to liability. No balloons may be released due to environmental concerns.  \n2. Pew markers must be either tied on or fastened with rubber bands. Absolutely no pins, tacks, or tape (including florists’ tape) are allowed.  \n3. The Final Information Form must be submitted no later than three weeks before the wedding date.  \n4.
