About this venue
Formerly St. Paul's Roman Catholic Church, originally built in 1850. The building was deconsecrated in 1974. That same year the building was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. In 1981, The Verdin Company, North America's oldest bell and clock company, purchased historic St. Paul's Church. The beautiful building housed The Verdin Company corporate headquarters and the Verdin Bell and Clock Museum. In the late 1990's, The Bell Event Centre was created in St. Paul's Church. Featuring hand-painted murals, marble, stained glass windows, vaulted ceilings, terrazzo flooring, & a cobblestone courtyard, this spectacular venue made for an unrivaled setting for events. Christy Cafeo & her family were presented the opportunity to purchase The Bell Event Centre in 2008 & has been creating memorable events ever since. With an elegant, historic setting & exceptional amenities, The Bell Event Centre is the perfect place to bring your dream wedding to life!

The Beautiful Bell Event Centre
The Bell Event Centre, in the heart of Pendleton, is one of the most beautiful venues in the city and creates a very unique mood and vibe for your wedding day. From the gorgeous architecture, amazing stain-glass windows, and the best coordinating team there is - you truly are in the best of hands when choosing this venue for your Wedding or Event. Not only is the venue itself incredible, the team that takes care of you from start to finish is more incredible. They work together, help you with the details, and take care of their vendor teams! They go above and beyond in everything they do for their brides. I can't recommend this location enough! We love working with The Bell Event Centre!
