Wedding
Schedule
Our pastors would be delighted to work with you in planning to have a
memorable, Christ-centered worship experience for your wedding. The first
step is to contact one of the pastors or the Church Office to reserve
a time and date on our church calendar. Where possible, the pastor of
your choice will work with you. However, our pastoral team makes that
decision based upon a variety of factors. We discourage weddings during
the Lenten season of the Church Year. Your cooperation is scheduling as
soon as is possible for you is appreciated.
Wedding
Fees
There are various fees for facility and services provided by staff. A
fee schedule will be provided upon request. Reservation of a date requires
payment of fees in full (all fees are refundable).
Pre-Marital
Counseling
Trinity requires participation in some form of pre-marital counsel. However,
options are available for couples. Please discuss this matter with one
of the pastors. The State of Minnesota gives a discounted license fee
for those who participate. A valid wedding license must be in the possession
of the pastor one week prior to the wedding date.
Scripture
Texts and Hymns
The reading of Scripture is always a part of a Christian wedding. Congregational
hymn singing is encouraged. A pastor or organist will assist you in making
appropriate choices.
Photography
and Video Standards
Options need to be discussed with the pastor or wedding consultant. Guidelines
have been established to preserve the sanctity of the occasion.
Wedding
Service

God. The pastors will help you determine what is acceptable within the
