Marriage

We are sometimes asked by people who don't live in the parish whether they can marry at St Wystan's.

Briefly, this is the legal position.

You have a right to be married at St Wystan's

if one (or both) of you is resident in the parish or
if you are a regular worshipping member of our church having habitually attended worship for at least 6 months.

Even if you are not now living here, you may also be married at St Wystan's if you have a Qualifying Connection, for example:

if you were baptised in the parish or
if your name is entered in the Confirmation register of the parish or
if you have resided in the parish for at least 6 months

or

if your parent has, during your life time, had their place of residence in the parish for at least 6 months or
if your parent attended public worship in the parish for at least 6 months.

or

if your parent or grandparent was married in the parish.
