Event Planning

If you would like to plan an event with the church please call our Event Planner, Rebecca Castleberry at 770-537-2672 ext. 10 or email her at eventplanning@bremenfirstumc.org.

Weddings

The wedding ceremony is a worship service in which God’s love is celebrated.

Weddings are scheduled on a “first come, first served” basis with the Event Planner.

Weddings can be scheduled no earlier than six months in advance.  Once a wedding is scheduled, all changes must be made in writing to the Event Planner.  Weddings are performed only on Saturday.  No weddings are performed on holidays or major holiday weekends.

Guest ministers are welcome to participate in wedding ceremonies.  Our Senior Pastor will extend an invitation to the guest pastor to assist him in the ceremony.

Requirements for Weddings at Bremen FUMC:

  1. Premarital counseling with the pastor is a requirement for marriage.
  2. All music selected should be conductive to the worship of God. The Church organist, if available, plays for all weddings. If she is not available, you will be provided with the names of other organists familiar with our organ.
  3. The Sanctuary seats approximately 200 guests. Our Chapel seats 60 guests comfortably.
  4. The Church has a Reception Hall that can be used for receptions. It can accommodate up to 350 guests. The bride must secure her own caterer.
  5. Dancing is allowed, but a “champagne toast” with alcohol is not permitted.
  6. Upon “send off” nothing may be thrown at the couple, you may blow bubbles.
