If you would love to be married in Church then we would be delighted to hear from you.  If you live in Toddington or Chalton then St George of England is your parish church and you have a legal entitlement to be married here.  If you live outside the parish, or have been married before,  then it may still be possible to have your wedding here, please contact us to explore the various options which may be open to you.  More information about the legal aspect of a marriage service can be found on the Church of England website https://www.churchofengland.org/life-events/weddings

The Church provides lots of help with the planning and preparation for the big day and beyond.  Once a date has been fixed in the church diary a series of preparation meetings will be arranged to ensure that your day is all that you dream it will be, and your marriage gets off to the best possible start.  We will pray for you and ask God to bless you in all your preparation and on your wedding day.

Many couples celebrate significant wedding anniversaries or special events by affirming their marriage vows in church.  And quite often, when a marriage took place in a registry office, a service of blessing is held as part of the celebration, on or near the wedding day, or several years later.   If a blessing or affirmation of vows is something you feel you'd like to do get in touch.​
