Getting Married? Think Church!


 Whether you're just contemplating marriage, or already planning your wedding day, your church wants to help and support you.

And, on October 1st 2008 a new law came into effect, meaning there are now more churches to choose from for your special day and for generations to come.

There are some things about marrying in church that you just can't get anywhere else. It's your wedding. Let us help you make it personal, meaningful, spiritual, beautiful.

For more information, see the Marriages section on this website, or the new national Church Weddings website.
