Weddings at SUMC
A Service of Christian Marriage
Christian marriage is a lifelong relationship of trust and love based upon the grace of Jesus Christ.
The Service is a sacramental event, an act of public worship, in which the couple unconditionally pledge their lives to one another in the presence of God, the minister(s) and the witnessing congregation.
A Service of Christian Marriage is normally held in the church or chapel; though in special circumstances may be held in a location mutually acceptable to the couple and pastor.
Application for a Wedding at the Church
An appointment should be made with the pastor through the church office at least six months in advance of the intended wedding date. We are blessed with a beautiful and historic church building, so please be aware that we receive numerous requests for weddings each month. Wedding requests for for non-church members are decided on a case-by-case basis. For assistance, please call the church office at (860) 651-3356.
