By choosing to get married at Holy Trinity Church, you are seeking to enact this most intimate moment of your lives in a place where people gather to hear the Word of God and encounter the divine presence in Word and sacrament. May you hear God’s voice, know God’s blessing, and keep close to the heart of God throughout your lives together.  \nThe Reverend Timothy A. Mentzer, Senior Pastor  \nYour Marriage  \nA marriage is a legal contract and a sacred covenant between two people. By choosing to hold the ceremony in a public building and inviting guests, you are recognizing that your new life affects the lives of many other people, and that you will need their support if you are to sustain your life together. Everything about the ceremony testifies to the significance of the choice you are making and the roles that faith, family, friends, and one another will play in supporting your marriage amid the sometimes stormy seas of changing emotions, fragile health, family pressures, profound temptations, and economic uncertainty. While Holy Trinity Church’s historical and beautiful architecture provides a beautiful setting for your “perfect day,” at a deeper level it points to the covenant of your marriage—to live a life shared in community.  \nYour Wedding Day  \nThis document outlines our policies and guidelines, and offers our best advice to help you plan your wedding at Holy Trinity Church. Some of the policies are quite strict. This is out of respect for three constituencies:  \n(1) Those who inhabit and visit downtown Lancaster. This city is a place of life and activity, and often there are other planned and impromptu events taking place. Your wedding may not be the only event in this part ofthe city. This often affects parking, and specific details may be worked out with our Wedding Director.  \n(2) Those with other events taking place at Holy Trinity Church. Most of our concerns about timing (e.g. in relation to flowers and photography) are to ensure that your wedding day goes smoothly.  \n(3) Those who are part of the worship life of Holy Trinity Church, and who look to this church asa place of holiness, dignity, and leadership in Christian liturgy. Our concerns about music, photography, flowers, and the general ‘feel’ of the event are derived from a desire for everything that happens at Holy Trinity Church to glorify God, and be in keeping with the reputation of the building and its traditions. Please note that animals are not allowed to be part ofany wedding service.  \nPlease read all the church’s policies thoroughly before making a reservation. Once the Wedding Reservation Form and Contract is completed and returned to the Parish Office along with payment of the non-refundable deposit due, it becomes a binding contract of acceptance and understanding of the terms and conditions noted in this document.  \np. 3  \nMaking a Reservation  \nELIGIBILITY: Holy Trinity Church ","cbCaib2GSfuPCTwV","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaib2GSfuPCTwV","pdf",673296,22,"English","# Welcome and Background for Weddings\n# Making a Reservation\n# Fees & Payment Schedule, Payment Options\n# Church Policies\n## Wedding Clergy\n## Wedding Directors\n## Church Organist\n# Programs\n# The Wedding Rehearsal\n# Parking\n# The Wedding Day\n# Agreements\n## Wedding Information Form and Contract\n## Florist Agreement\n## Photographer/Videographer Agreement\n## Professional Wedding Planners Agreement","[{\"question\":\"Who is eligible to hold a wedding at Holy Trinity Lutheran Church?\",\"answer\":\"The church welcomes Christian weddings of any denomination, including Protestant or Catholic.
