The establishment of Christian marriages is one of the most important ministries of Westminster Presbyterian Church. A wedding is a sacred occasion filled with many blessings. In the simple marriage rite, the blessings of family, friends, the gathered community and ultimately the blessing of God are brought as gifts to this intense and high moment in the lives of the wedding couple. Guidelines have been established by the church staff to help the bride and groom create a service that will express the couple's personal needs and will also reflect the dignity of a service of worship in the Presbyterian Church (USA). |
Sanctuary Information
Weddings may be performed in the sanctuary or the library. The sanctuary has 56 pews seating ten to twelve people per pew. The aisle is 125 feet long. Brass candelabra and pew candles are available.
