Banns are where notice of your wedding is given in church according to a legal custom. On these occasions everyone in church will be praying for you.
We warmly invite you to join in worship with our regular congregation as you prepare for your wedding and in due course hear your banns being read. A warm welcome awaits you at our services.
If you both reside in our benefice the banns will only have to be called here.
However if one of you resides in another parish you will need to make arrangements to have the banns called there as well. (You can find the details of the nearest church to where you live on the website www.achurchnearyou.com or alternatively we can help you to identify your parish church) The other church will make a small charge for calling the banns and after they have been called they will give you a banns certificate which you need to bring with you to your wedding rehearsal.
