Marriage

To make arrangements, come along to the church vestry on a Monday evening (Tuesdays on Bank Holidays) when a member of the clergy will be available from 6.00 – 7.00 pm. If you are unable to attend at this time, please contact the parish office (tel: 512 1769).

You will be invited to attend two preparation sessions to understand more about the meaning of Christian marriage and what the service will be like.

Usually, you will also be invited to attend services when your ‘wedding banns’ will be read out. ‘Wedding banns’ are the public announcement of your wedding in your local parish church on three consecutive Sundays so that your community knows that you are getting married. It is a legal requirement and also a good opportunity to meet people.

St Michael and All Angels is a very popular venue for weddings and the warm feedback from those who have been married here over the years, sometimes over many generations, is a source of great joy.
