Getting married?

Lots of people marry in their own local church, and I'm always happy to hear from local people planning a wedding! In St Weonards Church we have toilet and kitchen facilities - so why not continue your celebrations with lunch or tea in a marquee in the grounds or in the church? That's just what the couple in the photos at the foot of this page did on a lovely Saturday in October 2011!

I know that some people who don't live here at the moment might also like to marry in one of our churches because it has special significance through family or other connections. There are several acceptable conditions which may allow you to do so - I can advise you as necessary.

You'll find all sorts of useful information and resources, including a wedding planner, at the Your Church Wedding website, and of course you can get in touch with me to discuss your special day on 0 1 9 8 1  5 8 0 3 0 7 or at emailATecgoddard.co.uk (please replace AT with the @ symbol).
