Weddings at St. Paul's

Weddings at St. Paul's

In order to be married within St Paul's Church, you will need to have fulfilled one of the criteria listed below. If you already meet, or are willing to meet, any of these qualifying criteria, then click HERE for contact details.

You will need to write to us letting us know the date and time you are hoping to have the marriage service; the names of both parties being married; tell us if either have been involved in a divorce; inform us which of the criteria you meet and give us a postal address so that we can write back to you. Once your eligibility has been confirmed, we will write to you and confirm both date and time. Some time later we will also send out all the necessary papers for you to fill and ask you to make an appointment to come discuss all the practical aspects of your wedding.

If either person wanting to be married has been divorced, then we will need to discuss the necessary procedures with you before any booking confirmation can be made.
