Life Events

Life is full of special moments - and many people want to celebrate them in our churches. Whether it's a wedding or a baptism or remembering a loved one at a funeral, we are here for everyone in our villages.

To ask about your Life Event in one of our churches, you can submit an Enquiry Form by following this link

Weddings

The first question people often have is - Can we get married here? We'll do our best to answer that for you! If you live here, have ever lived here, or have a good connection through family, the answer is yes. If not - still talk to us, we'll do what we can. A church wedding is a very special thing and carries many blessings and some extra responsibilities. Click here to contact us.

If you are planning to get married elsewhere, but would like to contact us about having your Banns of Marriage read out in one of our churches, click here.

Funerals

Baptisms

Funerals

There are many different ways of marking the passing away of a loved one, be it a Funeral Service, a Thanksgiving Service, a Celebration of their Life or a Memorial Service. These can be before or after an internment elsewhere, or part of a burial in our Churchyard. Click here to contact us.

Churchyards and Burials

Our churchyards are beautiful places lots of people treasure as they remember their loved ones. The Diocese of Oxford has guidelines to help you understand if you can be buried in a village churchyard - click here for more details. If you don't live in one of our villages, we are sorry but we probably can't help you with this kind of request: though we do hope you will still come and enjoy the peace and tranquillity that our churchyards offer all year round.

Baptisms

A baptism is always a great family occasion, and we love to help families who live in our villages celebrate these times as we offer the promise of God's love. Baptism is a very important celebration in the Christian Church and normally takes place during one of our main Sunday services, following preparation for families and godparents.
