Weddings at St Leonard’s

Christians believe that marriage is a gift from God. In the marriage service, a couple make a public declaration of lifelong commitment to love each other, for better and for worse; in sickness and in health.

A Church wedding may be grand or simple, but at its heart is the desire to seek God’s blessing on your vows and your relationship as husband and wife.

You may be looking at getting married at St Leonard’s or having your Banns read.  In either case we want to help you make the arrangements for your special day run as smoothly as possible.

These are on 1st and 3rd Thursdays during peak season and once per month in the winter months from 6pm – 8pm.
