Weddings

Getting married is one of the most important decisions you will ever make. For many people it is the most important day of their life. There are all sorts of decisions to be made about how that marriage is to be celebrated, including where to get married.

Some questions people often ask are:

I am interested in getting married at St James’. What do I do next?

Having decided you want a church wedding, the first thing to do is to come to church for the Sunday morning service at 10.30am or contact the Vicar.

What are the legal requirements for getting married at St James’?

If you live in our parish you must have your banns read out in church for three Sundays during the three month before the wedding. If you do not live in the parish but would still like to get married at St James’ there are special rules so you will need to talk to the vicar.

What about flowers for the wedding?

We are not equipped to provide special flowers for the wedding but are happy to discuss any arrangements you would like to make for flowers in church for your special day

What about the cost?

The total cost of the Service is around £600 This includes costs for the Organ, Bells, use of the church and wedding certificate. The vicar will be happy to give you an exact price on application.
