The historic presence and majestic architecture of Central make it an understandably appealing option for engaged couples seeking an aesthetically beautiful space to be united before the Lord in marriage. We are honored that you would like to exchange your vows with one another and before God in our sanctuary.
Central is only able to host weddings for those who are members of and are actively involved in our congregation. Our church policy is to invite couples — one or both of whom have been members of Central for at least six months prior to the wedding date — or a child of a member of Central to have a wedding ceremony at Central Presbyterian Church. The process of membership at Central entails: attending a membership class offered quarterly, an interview with two members of Session and being approved by the Session, concluding with a public affirmation of your vows in front of the congregation. If you are interested in taking the next step towards membership please contact Kathryn Thompson (kthompson@centralchurchnyc.org) and she will be happy to share more information with you regarding membership at Central and answer any questions you may have about the process.
For those who satisfy the criteria above, we invite you to please fill out the wedding inquiry form below, and Kathryn will be in touch with you to discuss details.
