    We would love to help you plan your special event at Fellowship. Weddings are scheduled on a first-come, first-serve basis through our Connections Ministry Office. There are basic requirments that must be met and pre-marital counseling is required. Fees for weddings are charged depending on which facility is being used and range from $500 to $1300. The fee includes custodial, technical crew and a wedding consultant.  A printable 2008 Wedding Guide is available here.

 

 

BASIC REQUIREMENTS:
•   Weddings at our facility are limited to

    those who regularly attend Fellowship
    Bible Church.

•   All weddings held at our facility, whether
    led by a Fellowship pastor or guest
    pastor, must be coordinated by one
    of our trained wedding consultants.
    Your assigned consultant will meet with
    you four to six times. She will work
    with our staff (custodial, tech, etc.),
    provide guidelines and assist in planning
    your special event.

•   All dates are tentative until approved by
    the appropriate Fellowship staff.

•   One additional event, either the rehearsal
    dinner or the reception, may be held at
    Fellowship, but not both.

    Fellowship must be approved.

PREMARITAL COUNSELING:
Premarital counseling is a very vital part of our marriage philosophy at Fellowship. We place a high priority on getting to know each of our couples and equipping them for marriage. We desire to not only provide them with tools to help their relationship be strong but also encouragement them through another mentoring couple. All couples being married by a Fellowship pastor are required to participate in Table Talk or individual counseling. The first initial contact should be with the officiating pastor to see if he is available to perform the wedding. Then, contact Carol Holmstrom or at 479.878.2946.
