Why Choose a Church Ceremony?

A church wedding will add a spiritual dimension to your marriage. The ceremony includes God and looks to him for help and guidance. God’s blessing is the main attraction for many couples, whatever their beliefs.You can make amazing vows, or promises, in a church. You can only make vows this big in a church. These vows, made in public, will help you to stay together and grow together. God and your church are there for you to help you keep your vows.

St. Botolph's Church is pleased to offer music played on it's Binns organ. Bells can also be provided before and after the ceremony on request.

The church does not receive any financial support form external sources to meet its running costs e.g. materials for services, insurances, organ, utilities, clock etc. In addition the costs of maintaining the building and ensuring the churchyard is in good order have to be met. Much of the cost of the clergy also has to be raised by those who use to church. 

 

This is all done by volunteers who generously give both their time and money, and also through the generosity of those who use the church for services e.g. for weddings.

 

We therefore ask all wedding couples to help support the church by making a donation. The suggested requested donation (£75) is voluntary and the actual sum given is the choice of those concerned.
