Weddings and blessings in church
There are many ways people can be able to get married, or receive a blessing on their marriage, partnership or relationship, in a church. Couples are welcome in a parish church if either of you live or grew up in the parish, or if you worship regularly there, or if your parents live or lived here, or if they are or were church members there.
