Congratulations on your engagement! We are honored that you are interested in having your Wedding at St. Simons Presbyterian Church. As we continue a long history of hosting weddings, we are committed to making yours a joyful and memorable occasion.

Our Sanctuary is newly renovated (2021) featuring a spacious and welcoming ambience in neutral tones, a perfect backdrop for casual to formal wedding styles. Our musicians are talented and knowledgeable of the local musical resources. Our pastors are kind and professional as they consult with engaged couples about the wedding ceremony as well as the values of Christian marriage. Our Wedding Coordinator is prepared to guide you, your family and wedding planner in the details of your Wedding Day. And our Wedding Hostess is available to help you and your wedding party feel at home in our church.

COVID-19 Special Considerations
During the COVID-19 pandemic, SSPC and its governing body (Session) are monitoring and adjusting the rules for church gatherings as information becomes available. The Wedding Coordinator will inform the couple of any changes to the COVID-19 rules.

As of May 2021, wedding attendees should practice safe distancing and wear masks inside the Church, provided by the wedding party. The bridal couple, attendants and pastors are not required to wear masks when standing up front during the ceremony but should wear masks at other times inside the Church. Anyone experiencing COVID-19 symptoms should not attend.

All staff of SSPC will be masked and will observe social distancing. SSPC has additional cleaning procedures in place including enhanced air flow and mist disinfection. Hand sanitizer is available at all entrances.
