If both bride and groom have a church of different denominations is it correct etiquette to get married in the brides church even if the couple does not know which church they may attend after they are married. Is it inappropriate to ask the brides pastor to marry the couple in the grooms church? Or for the grooms pastor to be present in the brides church?

'The Top 50' featured in the papers for the second year running the other day - the 50 places where women want to work. The info was gathered by the Aurora women's network and featured in the Times newspaper. Apparently these companies offer the best in career development, training, healthcare and pensions.
Heigh Ho.

I have been with my boyfriend who is a Scottish for one year five months, we are planning to get married next year in august so we wanted to know whether the Church of England can marry us, as I am a South African who goes to the church of England regularly.
Me and my partner are getting married in our Parish Church which is where he was christened and his parents were married - it's lovely. The problem is that we would really like a different Reverend who is at another Church to undertake the wedding ceremony, not the Reverend at our Parish Church.
Is this allowed and what are the rules, do we have to attend the other Church for a period at all? I don't want to offend anyone!

Hope you can reassure me, I'm getting married at a registry office on 12th July and having a Service of Blessing at my future in-laws parish church on 14th July. My question is; how much like a marriage ceremony is a blessing? read more »
