Hambleden Valley Churches

Weddings

We are delighted to marry couples in the churches of the Hambleden Valley,
however we are not legally allowed to marry everyone who asks. The law
requires that one of the couple has a historical or geographical link with
one of the churches in the group, as listed below.  If you have a link with
one church in the group you will be able to be married in any of the churches.
