Music is a very important part of your wedding service.

We have an excellent organist who will be happy to discuss your wedding music with you.

You may wish to book the choir - to do so please contact the Parish Office or speak to the Director of Music.

Most people choose two pieces of music for the service - one to be played when the bride enters and one as the bride and groom leave the church. You may also like to select something for the organist to play while you sign the Registers.   

PLEASE NOTE THAT THE PLAYING OF CDs IS NOT PERMITTED.

The following form will be sent to you in your wedding pack and must be completed and returned to the Parish Office:
