weddings

St. Christopher’s Episcopal Church welcomes the opportunity to assist you with arrangements for your wedding in our church or chapel.

Here are our wedding policies:

● The church requires that the bride or groom be  Episcopalian or from an Episcopalian family and that the couple attends three sessions of pre-marital counseling with the Rector.

● The church does not supply flowers, unity candles or aisle runners. Two matching arrangements are required for the altar, one for each side of the retable. St. Christopher’s does not require flowers be left at the church. We request two weeks notice to advise us if flowers will be left or not, to assist Flower Guild planning.

● Absolutely no rice, birdseed, confetti or flower petals may be thrown inside or outside the church.

● Fees are set for the church, officiating clergy, organist and sexton. A deposit is required to secure the wedding date. The church fee is waived for any member of St. Christopher’s who is a pledger of record for two years or more. There is a fee for the clergy, and another for the sexton. The fee required for the organist includes the rehearsal. She will determine additional charges for soloists or extra rehearsals.

● Because a wedding is an act of religious worship, no flash pictures may be taken during the service. However, flash pictures may be taken before or after the service.
