Weddings and Funerals
honoring the sacred transitions in our lives
All Saints Church is here to walk with you during the holy moments of our lives, at the birth of a child, when we commit our lives to another through marriage, or when dying or celebrating the life of a loved one during a funeral or memorial service. We welcome your inquiry concerning wedding and funeral services at All Saints Episcopal Church. The information below presents our policies and procedures for weddings and funerals in The Episcopal Church tradition. If you have questions or are interested in arranging a special service at All Saints, please call the parish office and speak to our parish priest.
All are welcome here! The Episcopal Church welcomes and affirms people of all genders and sexualities and we are honored to offered God’s blessing as you seek to make sacred vows to live in love and fidelity to one another. Because we honor the sacredness of these vows, we do require pre-marital counseling for anyone seeking marriage at All Saints. Our marriage booklet can answer many questions as you begin planning for a wedding.
If at all possible, a clergy person should be notified when a person is near death in order that the ministrations of the Church may be provided. When death occurs, the parish office should be called at once. All arrangements for the funeral should be made in consultation with the Priest. The policies above and this planning sheet may be useful in thinking about the questions needed for planning a funeral.
Planning for the End of Life Booklet: We encourage everyone to consider their wishes for the end of life by setting up an advanced medical directive, crafting a will, and sharing with your family and friends the ways we can celebrate your life. This booklet is a great start to thinking through some of these questions and making your wishes known. We are happy to keep a copy on file in the parish office, once you have completed your planning.
