REQUIREMENTS AND RESERVATION METHODS

All sanctuary weddings are to be performed by the ministerial staff of East Congregational Church. Under certain conditions, and only with the approval of the officiating minister, another minister may participate in the service. The East Church Minister of Music plays for all weddings held at East Church. In the event he is unavailable, he will arrange for a substitute. The Wedding Hostess is present and in charge at all weddings and rehearsals held at the church.

Klise Chapel weddings may be performed by any clergy or person legally able to officiate at wedding ceremony.

For more information, to set up an appointment to see our facilities, or to reserve either the sanctuary or Klise Chapel, please call the church secretaries, Kay or Kathy, at at (616) 245-0578, or e-mail the church at office@eastcong.org.
