Weddings 

Congratulations! A very warm welcome to you if you are thinking about being married at one of our churches!

Your Wedding in the Parish of Kildwick, Cononley, & Bradley

We want to make your Wedding as special and memorable for you as possible. We can offer you a full service in the splendour of the beautiful churches in our parish.

Weddings

Why a Church Wedding is special

Church buildings offer outstanding beauty and centuries of history. Local people have been getting married in this parish for generations, perhaps even members of your own family.

When you marry in church you become part of that history and part of the fabric of your community. But history is only part of the story. Unlike other venues, when you marry in church we are there for you afterwards. We will help and support you as members of our church family as a couple and as your family grows.

Whatever your beliefs, a church wedding adds a spiritual dimension to your marriage. We look for God’s blessing and His help and guidance as you start your life together. You can make choices about your ceremony; from the moment you book the date, Reverend Mike will work with you to plan a wedding that reflects your very personal story. You can blend ancient tradition with the modern experience to produce a day that is memorable, meaningful and beautiful. Where else can you walk down the aisle?!

Music

We have a team of experienced organists to play your favourite hymns and songs. You can also have your own musicians come and play, this may be a string quartet or a small ensemble.

Booking your day

To book a date for your wedding please fill out the form here and the vicar will be in touch shortly.

Planning your Visit

A Warm Hello 

A warm welcome to our parish!

We have lots going on, with many different ways to get involved with church life. If you’re new, come to one of our services where you can meet a few friendly faces and find out more about us.

You may also choose to sign up for our weekly email newsletter, (see here), which provides useful information about what’s going on as well as church family news. But don’t worry, we won’t spam your inbox! 

Finding a new church can be hard, and we want to help any way we can. If you are looking for a new church home, we thought you’d want to know what we are all about.

We believe God’s mission for us is to be “Sharing, Caring, Growing in Christ.” And how doing that we grow in LOVE toward God and neighbour.

Mission
In Christ


Even though it is at the end of our mission statement, the words “In Christ” encapsulates the starting point as our lives as Christians. Everything begins with our relationship with God, in Christ, as we grow, care, and share, loving our God by loving our neighbour.


Growing


We believe your journey of faith is one of constant growth. We learn more about God and our faith as we study God’s truth given to us in the Bible. God loves us too much to be done developing us into the disciples He wants us to be, and so we continue to seek to grow in what it means to be His followers.


Caring


A Christian life is one of caring for each other. We share the love and joy we receive from God by caring for them. Jesus first showed that care for us by his death on the cross and the forgiveness he delivers. We, then, get to live that our in our lives by caring and serving our neighbours.


Sharing


What an opportunity God gives us, to share the good news of what Jesus has done for us. Now, more than ever, this world needs to hear the message of a God who loves them, who died for them, who hears their prayers, and who promises to be with them always. As His disciples, we get to be the ones to share that message of hope, love, and peace. 
 

Getting Connected


Small Groups

While Sundays are a great way to meet new people, it is often in smaller gatherings that you can really get to know someone. Being part of one of our small groups allows you to make new friends, share together and support each other. We have a variety of groups that meet throughout the month, some afternoons and some evenings. We can put you in touch with a small group leader who will be more than happy to invite you along to their group.

Serving and Volunteering

If you want to get involved in the life of the church and help us make Sundays run smoothly, you can sign up to serve on a team.
