​
Can I get married at St Peter's?
​
If you live in Burnham Parish, attend St Peter's Church, or have a connection to the Parish, you can be married at St Peter's Church.
​
If neither of you lives in the Parish, nor do you have any connection with the Parish, it is still possible to be married at St Peter's, but you will need to discuss this with us.
​
Bells and Choir
​
St Peter's has a magnificent ring of 8 bells, and a team of ringers who ring before and after your wedding. A choir can add to the occasion by giving a strong lead to the singing.
​
We'll ask you for an initial decision about whether you want a choir and/or bells when you book your wedding, but as these facilities are provided by volunteers who only receive expenses. We cannot GUARANTEE their availability. Minimum 2 months notice needed.
​
What if I've been married before?
​
A previous marriage which has ended in divorce is, unfortunately, not uncommon. St Peter's supports couples who wish commit themselves to a new start and to be remarried in church.
​
