If you have any questions about the Wedding Ceremony, your marriage vows, or about getting married in a church, please ask our resident agony aunt, our Resident Reverend Jan Harney.
I'm hugely privileged to be taking an active role in two weddings this year. One is for some friends who met at our house (and for once I wasn't meddling!) and the other is for Scott - a friend of my son - who is marrying the lovely Janell in the summer.
I'm officiating at Scott & Janell's wedding and am just about to submit Banns forms and it occurred to me that this might be an opportune moment to remind you to think about this if you're planning a wedding this year.
I have been with my Muslim partner for 2 1/2 years, and 2 years of that we have said we will get married.
However, my partner is an asylum seeker, and he wanted to get status on his own without using me or having me involved in any way.
Unfortunatly his claim has been refused, although he is appealing.
I know it sounds dodgy - but we want to now get married, i don't want to lose him, and this now seems to be our only way of staying together in this country.
You’ve done the easy bit. You’ve both agreed that you want to spend the rest of your lives together; you’ve announced the news to your parents, and shown off the engagement ring to all those admiring friends and colleagues. Once the initial euphoria has faded a little, it will start to dawn on you that quite a lot of planning is needed in order to get from ‘I will’ to ‘I do’. Here are our five top tips to get the wedding ball rolling:
Tips:
1. Start a detailed wedding notebook, with separate sections for the guest list, gifts received, thank you letters sent out etc.
I have chosen two hymns for my service 13 Oct 2007. All things bright and beautiful and O' Perfect Love. Our families are not familiar with O' Perfect Love, I was wondering if I could substitute a hymn for another reading?
At the moment we are in the middle of the flood situation and feel my vicar will be busy helping those in need.

What a very informative website this is.
I've been going through my diary, entering all the dates for Wedding Shows as they are very conveniently listed here.
If you're planning to visit any Wedding Shows, do look out for the Church of England stand and stop by for a chat. You'll be guaranteed a welcome.

Dear Resident Reverend,
Record-breaking crowds attended Scotland’s largest wedding event, The Scottish Wedding Show, at the weekend (21 – 22 February).

Well the post bags are fit to bursting this week with a number of you wanting to ask the NewlyWeds-UK Resident Reverend a question about your wedding planning, the wedding ceremony, and getting married in a church.
