As with any Catholic church, it's important to discuss photography guidelines and any restrictions on flash or positioning with the parish office when booking, as some ceremonies have specific protocols.

Is St. Lorenzo Ruiz Catholic Church a good choice for interfaith or non-Catholic couples?

St. Lorenzo Ruiz is a Catholic parish, so wedding policies and ceremony requirements reflect Catholic Church guidelines. If you're not Catholic or are planning an interfaith wedding, contact the church directly to discuss eligibility, any required preparation (such as pre-marital counseling), and what ceremonies or accommodations may be possible. Many Catholic churches do perform weddings for non-Catholic couples under specific conditions, so it's worth having a conversation with the parish to understand your options.
