Weddings

A wedding is one of life’s great moments, a time of solemn commitment as well as good wishes, feasting and joy.

If you’re thinking about celebrating your marriage in the Anglican Church, we’re excited and happy to hear from you.  

All couples are welcome to inquire and meet with our rector, Katherine Morgan.  

We are more than a place to have a wedding.  We are a place to be married, to live out your marriage and to celebrate God’s gift of love and life.
