Once you have decided on a date, a $75 deposit will be needed to secure the time. You will then be put in contact with the wedding hostess. The wedding hostess will assist you with your wedding and the use of the church facilities. She is the person whom you give the balance of your wedding fees. Her job is to answer your questions regarding approved decorations, use of the kitchen facilities, lighting, sound, and the moving of any furniture and/or equipment. The wedding hostess will be present for the scheduled rehearsal and ceremony as needed, and will be the person who will check up after the wedding to make sure all clean-up has been done satisfactorily, and that everything has been returned to its original state. She will make sure the building is properly utilized and secure, and that all doors are locked, and lights turned off.
