Thinking of getting Married?
A wedding in Church is a special occasion in which you can receive God’s blessing as you make your wedding promises to each other, in the company of your family and friends, and in the presence of Jesus Christ. You do not have to be a regular churchgoer, or even be baptized to get married in the Church of England. The Churches of The Sole Bay Team welcomes you to make your wedding vows to each other in one of our beautiful churches, and our clergy are here to help.
We want to make your wedding special and memorable for you and you can be involved in making choices about your ceremony. A church wedding will add a spiritual dimension to your marriage. The ceremony includes God and looks to him for help and guidance
For your special day we offer 8 very special churches.
