Why a Church wedding?

Because your Wedding Day is such a special event it is important that the place you choose to exchange your vows is one that is special also. This may be one of our local worship centers or a location that is special to you as a couple. The Parish clergy must also give their agreement to officiate at the requested location.

St Margaret’s in Rainbow St Sandgate is a Heritage listed building full of history and atmosphere and can provide the perfect setting for your special day.

Every day we use words to express our thoughts and feelings, a Christian wedding enables couples to not only express their love for each other but also their desire to seek the blessing and guidance of God through their marriage. Unlike a civil ceremony that excludes all mention of God, a Church wedding actively involves God through out the words of the ceremony.
