Weddings at Saint Andrew's
Aloha and welcome to the Cathedral Church of Saint Andrew, Honolulu, Hawaii. We are delighted that are considering celebrating your marriage with us.
Our profoundly unique Cathedral was built in 1862. It is one of the oldest Episcopal Cathedrals in America, and the only example of Gothic architecture in Hawaii. The Cathedral was gifted to the community by King Kamehameha IV and Queen Emma and has served the islands as we transitioned from a kingdom, to a provisional government, then a republic, followed by a territory, and finally a state. We continue to honor the legacy of the King and Queen. We are a house of prayer and a sacred space welcoming many people of many cultures.
We invite you to worship with us as a beneficial way to acquaint you with our facility. Sunday normally includes three opportunities to worship. The 7:00 am Eucharist uses Rite I. The 8:00am service is a Hawaiian Eucharist which incorporates portions of the Hawaiian language and culture. At 10:00 am we have a Sung Eucharist using Rite II. I can usually be available to meet briefly with you after the 8:00 am and 10:00 am services. After the 10:00 service, a tour of the Cathedral is available.
Pictures of the Cathedral Close, as well as more in depth information about us can be found at other links on our site. Elsewhere on this page, you will find links to resources that I hope will be helpful to you in planning your wedding. The Wedding Customary can help to acquaint you with the customs and traditions of The Episcopal Church and the specifics of weddings at The Cathedral Church of Saint Andrew. Applications for Weddings, and Applications for Blessings are the first steps to securing the Cathedral as the venue for your wedding. The Celebration and Blessing of the Marriage, from The Book of Common Prayer, is the service used at the Cathedral.
