Planning your Wedding:

• Marriag preparations should begin nine months to one year before your anticipated wedding day. Marriage prep course is usually completed at your home parish. Paperwork must be provided to our parish when reserving your day.

• Arrange to meet with the Pastor, Deacon, or Parish representative as soon as possible.

• Marriage preparation, spiritual direction, and formation is also available. Please contact Fr. John Green. It is recommended to make a gift to the priest who will be celebrating your wedding. Typical gifts are $150. 

• The recommended gift to the Church is $500. A refundable deposit of $150.00 is required from each couple to set aside and hold a particular date for the rehearsal and ceremony.  The remaining $350.00 recommended donation is due on or before the day of the wedding.

• Music and altar servers in our parish are volunteers. If you would like to request one of our cantors for your wedding, or additional servers, please contact Fr. John to make those arrangements. 

When we say "gift" or "recommended donation" we are suggesting a charitable gift that is negotiable and can vary from couple to couple.  We want you to prayerfully consider what stewardship you would like to offer the Parish in exchange for our service and the facilities offered during this most beautiful, holy, and life-changing event in your lives. Our mountain tri-parish community is honored to be considered in this chapter of your spiritual journey together.
