Getting Married

Has someone asked you to marry them? Terrific!
Many Congratulations.
Are you secretly hoping that they will do?
It is so very exciting!

We love weddings at South Bersted. As a parish church, anyone who lives in the parish or is on the electoral roll of the church is entitled to be married at St Mary Magdalene. To see if you live in our parish, please type your postcode into this website. You may also have a qualifying connection with us.

Maybe one of you:

has at any time lived in the parish for a period of at least 6 months or
was baptised in the parish concerned or
was prepared for confirmation in the parish or
has at any time regularly gone to normal church services in the parish church for a period of at least 6 months or

Maybe one of your parents, at any time after you were born:

has lived in the parish for a period of at least 6 months or
has regularly gone to normal church services in the parish church for a period of at least 6 months or

Maybe one of your parents or grandparents:

was married in the parish

We're thrilled when people get married because marriage is a gift from God to everyone. We're keen to support those who enter married life and so we offer preparation sessions to those having their service at South Bersted. These are designed to help couples understand and plan their services, as well as to prepare for life together as a married couple.

Want to know how much it will all cost? For a full marriage service with banns being read and a certificate, organist, bells, some flowers and a verger in 2011, you will still get change out of £500.

For more information, to book a wedding or arrange to have your banns read please contact Tim using the contact form on this website. You may also like to view the link below.
