Marriage

Welcome to preparation for Holy Matrimony at St. Stephen the Martyr Parish!

Please make initial contact with Teresa Wright, the Pastoral Assistant for Marriage at St. Stephen the Martyr at least 9 months prior to the month you desire to be married.  St. Stephen the Martyr has many events and so we ask that you make contact with the parish and confirm your wedding date with St. Stephen the Martyr before scheduling dates with venues for your reception and other events regarding your wedding. 

Please phone or email to schedule your initial (intake) meeting.
 

Our initial meeting will include:

• Desired month, date, time, and celebrant for your wedding (wedding dates are not added to the parish calendar until the Church Deposit is paid and your wedding date is not guaranteed until the parish scheduler approves)
• Brief assessment of couple and contact information for a couple
• Anticipated number of guests (Church or Chapel)
• To-do list with timeline
• Acceptance of donations (made by US Mail, click the payment button below, or arrange to meet in person)
  • $200 Church Deposit - includes cleaning fee (refundable)
  • $300 Wedding Coordinator fee (includes Altar Server stipend)
  • $200 Administration Fee (class, Pastoral Assistant)

All couples asking to be married at St. Stephen the Martyr are required to contract with a St. Stephen the Martyr Wedding Liturgy Coordinator.   Teresa will assign your coordinator and she will contact you.
