General Wedding Information

Carrollton United Methodist Church, nestled beneath the oaks on historic South Carrollton Avenue, offers a beautiful setting for a special day! We recommend that you secure the date of your wedding as soon as possible. Please note that Saturday weddings must be scheduled before 7 PM, and all receptions at the church must be over by 9 PM.

 

Our pastor requires a consultation with the bridal couple prior to the ceremony. If you desire another minister to assist or to conduct the ceremony, please make arrangements through our pastor. You may email Rev. Cory Sparks at cory@carrolltonmethodist.org or call the church office at 504-861-7597.

 

Our church wedding coordinator/hostess will assist with the set-up for the rehearsal and wedding. She will see that the church is opened, assist the florist, and change altar cloths. She will work with the couple to create a meaningful and joyous ceremony.

Music

The church organist is available to discuss your selection of music and to perform the rehearsal of the ceremony. The organist will set his or her own fee. Because a church wedding is a service of Christian worship, only sacred music may be used. An alternate may be used if approved by the church organist.

 

Additional information is available on our “Wedding Policies Brochure.” To request your brochure or to schedule a wedding, please contact the church office at 504-861-7597.
