Weddings

If you or your parents or grandparents live in Frinton, you are eligible to be married in either the Parish Church or the Old Church. Weddings are usually booked early, with some summer dates being booked up to two years in advance. You should contact the church office in the first instance, on 01255 679164, and download the ‘banns of marriage’ form (click download below) this form can be filled out electronically or by hand and sent to enquiries@stmarysfrinton.org or post addressed to: St Mary’s Parish Church Office, Old Road, Frinton CO13 9BX

You will then meet with the rector, Revd Don Smith, to discuss your wedding plans and book a date. Wedding preparation classes are held and some Sunday church attendance is encouraged.  

For 2011, the basic cost of a (Church of England) wedding was £262, but this might increase slightly this year. It covers the church and the priest. Additional costs are; flowers, choir, and hall hire. The rector reserves the right whether or not to re-marry divorcees.
