Weddings, like all of the services of the Church, have God as their focal point. In weddings we begin by stating the Christian under-standing of marriage, we read passages from the Bible which provide the foundation for that understanding, we witness the exchange of vows of the couple, and we ask God to bless and strengthen the couple in their life together. Christian marriage presupposes that the couple are currently active Church members.

As with all services in the Anglican tradition, the liturgy is from The Book of Common Prayer, and the music, decorations and all other elements of the service are under the direction of the clergy and drawn from the traditions of the Church. For more information about getting married at St. Elizabeth's, please call the Parish Office.
