Weddings

If you are already a regular worshipper with us, or if you live within the streets in the Emmanuel Parish, you are very welcome to get married here at Emmanuel.

We recommend that you come along to one of our Sunday services and make yourself known to a member of the clergy. They can then arrange a visit with you, and start making the arrangements.

For more details please contact the church office.

Marriage Banns

The publication of marriage banns is a legal requirement within the Church of England. It means the public announcement by the minister during a normal church service that two people wish to marry, and gives a chance for anyone in the congregation to put forward a reason why the wedding should not take place.

Your banns will only need to be read here if you are getting married at Emmanuel, or if the wedding is elsewhere and you live in the streets in the Emmanuel Parish.

If you need us to read your banns, please contact the church office at least four months before your wedding day. There is a small fee payable.

The banns will be read at our family service at 9.30 on a Sunday morning, for three weeks in a row.
