If you are reading this page and are thinking about coming to to St Peter's Church for your wedding we look forward to welcoming you, helping you to plan in plenty of time and making your special day as happy and relaxed as possible.
St Peter's is a small but beautiful ancient church. Ideal for a wedding with fewer guests but can accommodate up to 150 guests with ease, more if you don't mind you guests being a bit squashed.
The church has a peal of 6 bells which can be rung by our experienced tower team on request.
You are welcome to have recorded music for the entrance of the Bride and the departure of the Bride and Groom. Please speak to the Revd Norma Bracewell if you would like more information about booking your wedding and for information about fees.
