If you’re looking at our weddings page, then it’s likely you’ve recently got engaged… in which case, congratulations! We welcome enquiries from couples who are considering a Christian marriage service at St Margaret’s. Our vicar will be pleased to meet you and discuss not only the kind of wedding service you have in mind, but also the meaning of Christian marriage and how God can help make your marriage as happy and long-lasting as you hope it will be.
Please email [email protected] or telephone 01375 672271 for further information.
Note, there are certain checks that we have to undertake by law in order to conduct a wedding, these include proof of ID and making sure you have a qualifying connection to this parish.
Marriage after divorce: Where a previous marriage has been ended through divorce, our vicar exercises a discretionary right not to conduct marriage ceremonies except in cases where it can be shown that both parties requesting marriage have since made a decision to follow Christ and live their lives in active Christian discipleship. The wider context of the previous marriage will also be taken into consideration before any decision is made. Couples are welcome to speak to the vicar, should they wish to discuss their situation.
