 St Alkmund's
Church is a
wonderful venue
for a wedding ceremony

You might be surprised to know that:-

  • you don't have to be baptised
  • you don't have to get married on a Saturday
  • brides don't have to wear white
  • and you don't have to say 'obey'

And that:-

  • if you live in Whitchurch or have a connection with the town or           St Alkmund's you can have your ceremony here
  • Children are welcome!
  • There are some things about marrying in church that you just can't get anywhere else

spiritual & beautiful

We are beginning to take bookings for Baptisms with preference given to those who had to cancel due to Coronavirus Restrictions. Numbers have  been limited to 30 with Social Distancing and hygiene protocols, including wearing a face covering,  and the rule of six remaining  in place, but we are waiting to hear from Government and Church of England if 30 will still be allowed or if like weddings this number is to be reduced to 15.
