We are delighted that you are considering being married in St. Mary’s, the parish church of Stotfold and Fairfield. A marriage service is a public declaration of love and life long commitment to your partner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On their wedding day the bride and bridegroom make their promises before friends, family and God and receive God’s blessing upon their new life together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Our organist will be happy to help you select music and hymns for the wedding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you choose to marry in church, it will be a day that is personal and special for you, but that need not mean you spend a fortune. There is no doubt that the choices you make about your wedding day can make a huge impact on the total cost. Part of the cost will be for the legal fees, and everyone pays this. There are also optional extras which you can choose or decline, according to your budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
