Weddings

We have celebrated dozens and dozens of weddings through the years, and are a popular place for weddings. Couples come to us to help celebrate their marriages for many reasons -- some of those reasons are:

1. We are more open and flexible about the design of the ceremony;
2. We will perform ceremonies for couples from different faith traditions;
3. Membership in our church is not required in order to be married by our clergy;
4. Our ministers often are willing to officiate "off-site" — in parks, private homes, and other venues;
5. We do not stigmatize couples who have been cohabiting prior to marriage, or because one or both parties have been married previously;
6. We are a "Welcoming Congregation" and perform weddings for gay and lesbian couples.

Why do we operate this way? Because our church places a high value on the dignity in human relationships.  We do not think there is any single "right" way to plan a wedding. We are concerned about facilitating the growth of a mutually blessed relationship and helping to lay the groundwork for the next phase of your lives.  Please call  203-798-1994 for more information.
