for 28 days

As we write this article it is nearly Valentine’s Day and Easter, a traditional time for weddings, will soon be upon us so love is in the air.

Would you like a church wedding? We have eight beautiful churches for you to choose from, each in one of our lovely villages. Have a look through this magazine for details of the parishes. Each church has its own character but whichever you choose, you are guaranteed a warm welcome and every assistance you need to make your big day run smoothly.

There are also some excellent venues for your wedding reception in the area.

We have a central system for all wedding administration making it easy to check availability and to complete your application form, including guidance on all the legal requirements.

Each of our churches has a person who leads on weddings and will be your main contact for all practical matters. They can arrange to show you round initially and then if you book that church, they will guide you through the months of planning, offering advice on everything you need to know about a wedding in that particular church.

Our own clergy team, along with local retired clergy, will be a great support to you in the run up to your wedding. The appointed clergy member will meet with you well in advance to go through all the arrangements and will arrange a rehearsal for you before the big day. On the day itself they will conduct a beautiful ceremony for you and your guests.

St. Andrew's Church, Weston upon Trent, Staffordshire

Welcome to St. Andrew's Church in Weston.

Our lovely 12th century church has a welcoming congregation, fully committed to sharing and spreading the word of God within our village and the wider community. We are equally committed to maintaining the beautiful building and welcoming visitors whether it be for the first time or a return visit. A Norman church which is built of local sandstone. Subsequent restoration has meant that it is now in a style typical of the early 13th century, and the bell tower dates from that period. The church underwent extensive restoration and enlargement in 1872.

Services at St Andrew's take place either at 9-30am or 11-15am with a breakfast service on the second Sunday of the month. This service is open from 9-30am where a full English breakfast is on offer, there are also healthy options available. The Lay Led Service starts at 10-00am and is a shorter, more relaxed occasion (no communion). Messy Church is held on the 4th Thursday of each month in the Village Hall, from 3-30pm until 5-00pm.
An activity table and toys are available for children in Church during all services.
Large print service and Hymn Books are available. Our church is accessible to all, with ramps at the entrance and the Chancel. An audio and loop system is in place. There is a toilet in the church room, however it is not accessible to all. Ample parking to the right of the church is available.
Special services take place at St. Andrew's, including Christmas services, Christingle, Easter, Harvest Festival and Nine Lessons and Carols. An outdoor Remembrance Day service takes place at the War Memorial within Weston Village and is always well attended, with hot drinks served in the local pub afterwards.
