We Welcome Your Wedding At Rayne

Wedding Guidelines

The Service of Marriage
from the United Methodist Book of Worship.

The service of Christian marriage is provided for couples who wish to solemnize their marriage in a service of Christian worship. Christian marriage is proclaimed as a sacred covenant reflecting the Baptismal Covenant. Everything about the service is designed to witness that this is a Christian marriage.

Rayne Memorial Untied Methodist Church welcomes you and provides these guidelines to assist you in planning your wedding.
