Engagement Period

When God’s Word is sought for counsel, it reveals the importance of sexual purity in relationships and the Biblical perspective on marriage. As servants of the Lord, we strongly feel that we must not ignore God’s counsel in any situation. Therefore, we sense that it would be a disservice to both of you in your desire for a fulfilling marriage to not address all of these areas of pre-marital counseling. Please read these scriptures before answering the questions below: I Corinthians 6:18; I Timothy 5:1&2; Ephesians 5:3; Ephesians 5:22-33; I Thessalonians 4:1-8.

• You are responsible to ensure that all participants in the bridal party are present at the rehearsal, including all parents of bride and groom, all ushers, bridesmaids, groomsmen, musicians, soloist, flower girl and ring bearer, etc.
• Remember to bring the marriage license to the rehearsal.
• It is a good idea to mail any out-of-town guests and wedding participants directions to the church.
• Please inform all participants that there is no smoking on the church property.

Acknowledgement

The performance of marriage ceremonies is an accommodation, not an obligation. It is understood that entering into premarital counseling does not constitute an agreement or approval to be married here. The pastor performing the wedding must operate in good conscience before the Lord and reserves the right to postpone or deny any ceremony, if he feels it is in the best interest of the couple or the church. Postponement or denial by one member of the pastoral staff will preclude requests to any other pastoral staff members. [Only after completion of premarital counseling can permission be given by a pastor to perform a wedding here. Feather Sound Church is not obligated to meet any wedding date request set prior to counseling.]

PLEASE RE-READ THE ABOVE STATEMENT AND THOROUGHLY UNDERSTAND FEATHER SOUND CHURCH’S POSITION.

I acknowledge that I have read and understood the above, and all information surrendered is true and correct to the best of my knowledge.
