Weddings at Trinity Lutheran Church
Our best wishes are with you as you embark upon one of the most important events of your lives. Below are a few helpful suggestions:
- Contact the Pastor as soon as you have a date in mind. The date will be secured and an appointment will be set up to discuss arrangements in detail.
- The church provides the use of all of our facilities, the Pastor, the Organist, the Custodian, all candles except for the Unity Candle and its two tapers. (large, plus two tapers – important to note size of 1” or 7/8”)
- The couple shall make arrangements for the florist, the photographer, the Unity Candle (if using one), any bulletins, the rehearsal time, the marriage license, fees to be paid for securing date (if non-member), and payment of fees when turning in the marriage license.
- The runner for the center aisle should be 75’ long
- Please note that the marriage license must be secured from the county and turned into the church office with the names of the two witnesses attached, at least three days before the wedding (2:00 pm Wednesday).
All outstanding fees for the wedding must also accompany the license being turned in on Wednesday. Checks for custodian, organist, and pastor must be made out to the individual and placed in separate envelopes: Custodian, Margaret Stevenson; organist, Nathan Mattson; Pastor, Kenneth Johnson or Pastor Jake Lehman. The check for non-member weddings is to be made out to Trinity Lutheran Church.
