What can I expect from the Orthodox service/ceremony?
The traditional service will last about an hour. It is customary to stand for most of the service, but the church does have pews so you may sit as needed. The church is ADA accessible with a level entrance door on the right hand side and chairlifts inside to access the restrooms. After the service concludes, guests will greet the newlyweds, and there will be a break before the reception begins at Beaver Station.
