Weddings

Congratulations on your plans to marry!

Below is a step-by-step process if you are interested in getting married at Bethlehem or are interested in the pastor leading your off-site wedding.

Step 1: Download our wedding guidelines and wedding fees and read them over. Please also give copies of the wedding guidelines to your musician(s) and photograper(s).

Step 2: When you have read the wedding guidelines and fees and agree to abide by them, please call (419-287-4182) or email (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) the church office to make sure the date you desire for your wedding is available.

Step 3: Click on this wedding application text file and email your completed answers to the church office (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.). This is considered your wedding application. Once this information is received and you have confirmed the date with the pastor, your wedding is officially on the church calendar.

(Note: Rehearsal times are usually the day before the wedding at 6 pm. The time can be changed in conversation with the pastor if necessary.)

Step 4: You will be set up to separately complete an online wedding inventory at a cost of $35. This can be paid directly (once per couple) when you begin the inventory.

Step 5: Purchase a copy of the book/workbook Before You Say "I Do" (Wright and Roberts) and choose four sections that interest you.

Step 6: Contact the pastor to set up a time for your first pre-marriage conversation.
