Weddings

Making Reservations

All arrangements and questions concerning the wedding need to be directed through the Church Wedding Coordinator. She will submit your reservation and act as a liaison between the Bridal party and the Church.

As a member you are able to schedule a wedding up to one year in advance, based on availability. Members of affiliated churches may submit a reservation six months in advance, based on availability. Contact should be made with the Church's Wedding Coordinator to explore open calendar dates. Application forms are submitted for approval, and the wedding party will be notified within two weeks of application.

Weddings may be scheduled on Friday or Saturday. We allow one ceremony per day and one reception per weekend. For all evening weddings, reception cleanup must be finished by 10:00 pm. The Bride’s room is available five hours before ceremony start time. The Ministry Center is available for seven hours before ceremony start time. We cannot accommodate a Friday night reception when there is a Saturday wedding already scheduled.
