To those who desire a religious setting and meaning to their marriage, whether members or nonmembers, and who will use the building reverently and with good taste, the church is happy to make its facilities available under the direction of the Pastor and the Church Staff.

Role of the Pastor

Presbyterian polity requires that a Pastor of this church conduct all weddings held on church grounds. if another pastor is desired, they must first be approved and invited by a Pastor of this church.

The date of the wedding will be confirmed first with the Pastor, then with the church office. A deposit, equivalent to the fee for the use of the church will assure your date is reserved.

The pastor of this church has the final authority in all aspects of the wedding. Please consult with the Pastor before making any assumptions regarding vows, music, decorations, aisle runners, videos, photos, etc.

Normally two premarital counseling sessions will be held by the Pastor with the bride and groom prior to the wedding. These conferences will dwell on the spiritual and relational aspects of marriage, as well as the mechanics of the ceremony. The Pastor will make an interest in all arrangements and act in an advisory capacity as much as time permits.

The Pastor will be available for a rehearsal prior to the wedding.


Use of the Church

Rice or confetti is not allowed in or around the church building. It poses a problem with cleaning, especially when the church must be used for some other purpose a few hours later. Birdseed or small bottles with bubble wands may be used outside.

Alcoholic beverages are not allowed on the church premises. Smoking is not permitted in the building.
