Wedding Banns
Banns are a legal requirement to marry in the Church of England.
If
either of you live in the All Saints Parish or are planning to marry at All
Saints then your banns must read at All Saints.
The Parish is bounded by Grace Way, Martins Way, Gresley Way and Fairlands Way.

To organise the reading of banns contact the Church Wardens. Generally couples meet with a warden after Sunday morning service to complete the paperwork and to arrange when the banns will be read. The currently nationally laid down fee for Banns is £56 including a certificate when needed.
The certificate will be needed if marrying in another church and will be issued after the third reading. Couples
often attend church on the third Sunday to hear their banns read and then
collect the certificate afterwards.
