If you live in the parish, or are on the church's electoral roll, then you can have your wedding at St John's. Also, in almost all cases, we marry people who have been divorced. If you live outside the parish but have a qualifying connection, you may also be able to marry at St John's. If you require further details then please contact the Parish Office.

If you are getting married elsewhere but need your Banns read at St John's, fill in the form below or contact the Parish Office.

At the moment, the law of the land does not allow us to conduct Equal or Same-Sex Marriages in church. However, we will gladly arrange a service of Thanksgiving in church either before or after your civil ceremony. Please contact the Parish Office and we will see what we can do.

We will happily arrange a service to celebrate your wedding anniversary or for the re-affirmation of your wedding vows. This can be simple or grand; in either case it will be a beautiful thing to do. There is usually no fee for a simple ceremony.

During a Christening you or your child will be baptised with water. This formal ceremony marks the start of a journey of faith and is a special day for family and friends. Baptisms usually take place as part of Sunday morning services. When these slots are filled, we will always attempt to make sure that we can find space for you. All are welcome to be baptised.

If you live in our parish you are entitled to have your child baptised at St John’s. If you live outside the parish come and speak to us and we will see what we can arrange. Parents/carers do not need to be baptised. Godparents have to be baptised already and aged 16 or over. Anyone who is not baptised but would like to be involved may take part as a supporter of the candidate. There is no charge for Baptism.
