Weddings FROM THIS DAY FORWARD We congratulate you on your intention to enter into marriage and your
interest in a wedding. It is our hope at First Christian Church that your
wedding will be beautiful and meaningful; but even more, that your marriage will
be enduring and mutually satisfying. Toward this end we have devised certain procedures to help the ceremony go smoothly and according to your highest hopes. We believe that marriage is an institution ordained by God and we encourage couples to do everything they can to prepare for a good marriage. We remind you of the importance of ongoing nurture and renewal in order for the marriage to remain alive and growing. We wish you much happiness as you plan for your "adventure of a lifetime." Dr. Julie Roberts-Fronk YOUR WEDDING AT POMONA FIRST CHRISTIAN CHURCH Your wedding should be as full of meaning and beauty as possible. To further this aim the following arrangements are made so that you wedding will be conducted in a beautiful and memorable way. DATE AND TIME As soon as you have set the date for your wedding, make your arrangements by calling the church office. The secretary will notify our wedding coordinator, who will be in touch with you. It is necessary that you clear the date and time as far in advance as possible before making other arrangements. Our wedding coordinator will complete your reservation and other arrangements
for you. She is familiar with the correct rehearsal and wedding
procedures. INTERVIEWS The Pastors of this church wish to know you personally and to share some of their experience with Christian ideas of marriage. Make an appointment several weeks in advance of the ceremony. IF you have a member of one of your families who is a Pastor and would like to participate in the wedding ceremony, please have that person contact one of our Pastors at their earliest convenience. It is the policy of our church that all marriages be performed by one of our Pastors. GUEST LOCATION Weddings are celebrated in our Sanctuary, which holds 325 people. Receptions can be held in Fellowship hall. INVITATIONS When ordering your invitations the following form for the name and address is suggested: First Christian Church DECORATIONS OF THE CHURCH Make arrangements for your floral decorations with your florist after your
conference with the wedding coordinator. It is wise to set the date and
time on your florist’s calendar as early as possible, especially if your wedding
is near a holiday. REHEARSAL The wedding coordinator will arrange for a rehearsal at your mutual convenience. The entire wedding party should attend the rehearsal. Attendance of parents or grandparents not participating in the service is optional. Please be prompt for the rehearsal and for the wedding. (Remember the time constraints.) PHOTOGRAPHY Flash photography is not permitted during the ceremony. Video cameras may be used, but must be stationary and must use existing light. The photographer is not allowed to move around during the service to take pictures. Arrangements for family photographs may be arranged before or after the service. We understand your desires for permanent memories of this day, but we also remind you that a wedding is a sacred service. CHURCH RULES FOR WEDDINGS 1. NO SMOKING is allowed in any of the buildings.
