The location of your wedding ceremony is a very personal decision.  Even if you don't belong to a church you may be able to have your wedding in one.  Many churches are available at a modest rental fee.  If you wish,  your ceremony can be held in your home, a reception center, or a public meeting place.  The Rochester area also boasts several beaches and parks where your ceremony may be held.

Any location can be transformed into a reverent and joyous site for your wedding.  Your backyard, a local park, a recreation center, or any other available location can become a beautiful wedding site.  Pastor Jack can provide suggestions to help in the transformation.

A church or other wedding site may be able to provide someone to perform music for the ceremony.  You can also contract other musicians to provide your ceremony music.  Recorded music is also an option, and Pastor Jack can help you to pick out the proper songs. 

There are a number of city and county parks in the Rochester area where you can have your wedding.  Highland Park has some beautiful sites, such as Warner Castle and Sunken Garden.  If you have a short ceremony with only a few people in attendance, you have even more options.  The Finger Lakes area has wineries that can host your ceremony and your reception.  You also have the option to use many of the City of Rochester Parks and Recreation sites if you are on a budget, and would like to have a good sized reception.  Recorded music can be used for your ceremony if you don't want the expense of hiring musicians.

Contact Pastor Jack to discuss possibilities.
