Your Church Wedding
It is now easier to get married in church than ever before. There are lots of ways of getting married here but the end result is the same - the best day of your life in an idyllic setting, specially tailored to your needs. We very much hope that you will choose to be married here in Church.
A Church wedding can feel ‘right’ in a way that a civil ceremony may not. If you are unsure about a Church wedding, come and see us for a chat, or visit the Church. You may be surprised at how comfortable you feel.
Congratulations on your engagement!
We hope that this guide to church weddings will help you over the next few months as you prepare to get married. The day should be wonderful in every possible way and we know that you will be planning every detail to make it so, but it is only the beginning of your lifetime together.
You will be in our thoughts and prayers as we get to know you more and as your wedding day approaches. We are available to talk with you as you prepare your arrangements and about life in general about other things which are on your mind. We hope that this guide will help answer your questions and guide you through the weeks and months ahead.
to book a wedding:
Weddings have to be booked in person by both bride and groom. Together, and the vicar only sees wedding couples together.
You will need to complete a wedding application form (which can be filled in at home and brought with you) and sign it in front of the vicar. Guidance on filling in your application form is available to print on the Info and Forms page. Please park outside the vicarage on Beech Crescent, thank you.
Please remember to take proof of ID
eg a passport, birth certificate issued within 1 year of birth,
and also proof of your address, eg utility bill, and if you are a divorcee your decree absolute.
Copies of these documents are not acceptable.
