Wedding Venue

The Chadwick

Wexford, PA

Photographed here byRob Craven

The Chadwick runs eight event spaces under one roof in Wexford, north of Pittsburgh, and works all-inclusive — catering, bar and staff come as one package rather than a rental plus a list of vendors to chase. Numbers stretch from around 100 to 500, so it handles both a mid-sized wedding and a large one without the room ever feeling wrong. Outside there is a patio seating 200 and a covered rustic pavilion seating 160, which means an outdoor ceremony already has a roof over it and no tent needs booking against the forecast. Tables and chairs are included, and the indoor rooms carry chandeliers and neutral finishes that photograph without fighting a colour scheme.

Sunset times are calculated for this venue's coordinates, shown in EDT for the 15th of each month in 2026. Golden hour is the 60 minutes before sunset. The ceremony start is my rule of thumb — about 2 hours before sunset, so a short ceremony and family photos still leave the two of you in golden light. Adjust it to your own timeline. Average temperatures and rainfall are NOAA 1991–2020 normals from EMSWORTH L/D OHIO RVR, 7.9 miles away.

What time does the sun set at The Chadwick?

Sunset at The Chadwick moves by about 4 hours across the year. December is the earliest sunset at 4:53 PM local time, and June the latest at 8:52 PM. Golden hour starts roughly an hour before — 7:52 PM in June. Every month is listed on this page.

What time should our ceremony start at The Chadwick?

Start about 2 hours before sunset and your vows finish as golden hour begins, which is when the portraits afterwards look their best. At The Chadwick that means around 6:52 PM in June and 2:53 PM in December. Pick your date on this page and I will work out the exact times for it.
