*This is the contribution asked if you wish to have specially chosen flowers for your wedding. Otherwise, the flowers on your wedding day, in the church will be the normal weekly flower arrangements. Please note we do not permit private individuals or businesses to come in and organise flower pedestals or arrangements at the church as it may conflict with another wedding on the same day or with the plans of our flower arrangers. However, pew ends may be brought in separately.

The fee is to be paid by cheque to the Treasurer FOUR weeks before the wedding.  Cheques are to be made payable to All Saints’ Whitstable DCC.
BAC Internet payments are also possible - do contact us for details of this.

General information

Confetti may be thrown providing this is done well away from the entrances to the church. Your guests are requested not to take photographs during the wedding service. Professional photographers may take photographs during the signing of the registers and (with limited flash) during the service. Everyone may take photographs as you walk through the church at the end of the service. If there is a wedding following your service, we ask that you move as soon as possible to the south side of the church for photographs. December 2018
