St Matthew’s Albury is a wonderful place to be married for couples planning to be married since the very first bride was married at St Matthew’s 150 years ago. In addition to the outstanding beauty of the church, the long central aisle has provided a memorable walk to the altar for countless brides over the passage of years.
St Matthew’s has an equally long experience in hosting all manner of people including Diana Princess of Wales as well as children and pets. Marriages at St Matthew’s are celebrated in the breath-taking beauty of one of the regions most prestigious and historic churches. You will be surrounded by a sense of beauty, awe, tradition, and history, in addition to your family and friends, as you exchange vows at St Matthew’s, whether you want a grand occasion with many guests, a small family wedding, or a country wedding experience.
