So you are thinking about getting married in Holy Innocents (above left) or St Paul’s?

We would like to help you have a beautiful & memorable wedding service. If you decide to hold your wedding in one of our churches, be assured that we will pray for you in the weeks leading up to the Big Day.

Here are some things you need to know:

Seating:
Holy Innocents church in Amberley can seat about 140. The parish hall is next to this church.

St Paul’s church in Leithfield seats up to about 60.

Wedding day needs:
We may be able to help in other ways. You can use your own florist or have our experienced Ladies Guild do the church flowers for you. If you need an organist, that can be arranged, or you can use your own. The hall and certified Food Safe kitchen next to our church in Amberley is also available for hire if you want to have your reception there. It can accommodate 96 people. Even if you are not using the hall for your reception, the toilet facilities are accessible for your wedding guests on the day. St Paul’s is situated next to the Leithfield Community hall and its toilet facilities can also be accessed.

Our parish administrator can guide you through various options and the associated costs. Phone Patricia, our parish administrator on 021 0256 5468, or email her at: ej.pdgardner@kinect.co.nz

Weddings in Anglican churches:
At any wedding in an Anglican church, an Anglican priest must be present and carry out part of the ceremony. However, you may have another minister or celebrant lead part of the service if you wish. Details are worked out between you and the ministers concerned. Please call or email our parish administrator, who will put you in touch with the priest, to talk it through.

Inspection: You are welcome to visit and view either church and/or the parish hall. Again, please contact our parish administrator, Patricia (details above).
