Explore our listings to view images, discover key information about each venue, and send direct enquiries to the churches and places of worship that capture your heart.

Finding the right church for your wedding involves considering several practical aspects alongside the aesthetic appeal. Seating capacities vary greatly between venues, so determine your guest list early on to narrow your search. Our listings provide details where available, but don't hesitate to contact the church directly to confirm availability and discuss your specific needs. Accessibility is also a crucial factor. Enquire about wheelchair access, accessible toilets, and other provisions for guests with disabilities to ensure everyone can comfortably share in your celebration. For questions about marriage preparation courses, your chosen church will be the best point of contact. They can advise on any specific requirements or recommend local courses to help you prepare for married life.

A unique tradition often associated with church weddings is the reading of the banns. This historical practice involves a public announcement of your impending marriage in the parishes where you both reside for three consecutive Sundays leading up to the wedding. It's a charming custom that adds a touch of formality and tradition to your wedding preparations. While not always a mandatory requirement, discussing this with your chosen church will clarify their specific practices and any steps you need to take. Remember, our comprehensive listings provide contact details for each venue, enabling you to easily connect with church representatives and begin planning your dream Dumfries and Galloway wedding.
