First Central – for the church wedding of your dreams. Soft light filters through the many stained glass windows, and the aisle is lengthy enough for the longest train. The sanctuary seats 600 guests. If you’ve always wanted a big church wedding, this is the church. Completed in 1921, First Central Congregational Church has been the site of many weddings and commitment ceremonies over the years.  Non-members are welcome!

First Central Congregational Church is an Open & Affirming congregation. We welcome all couples, and we’d love to be part of your ceremony.

Here are the details:

Several ministers are available to perform your ceremony. Our organist is a gifted musician, playing the harpsichord, piano, or our Aeolian-Skinner 61 rank organ, from classical music to contemporary. We also provide a liaison to assist you with making arrangements at the church.

There are a number of rooms available for use on your special day, including a common parlor where you may relax and visit with members of the wedding party between photographs and before the ceremony.

Weddings at First Central cost $2000. This fee includes:

  • The organist/pianist, including a planning meeting and the wedding.
  • A minister, including a planning meeting and the wedding.
  • A church liaison to assist with the rehearsal and the wedding.
  • Custodial services, both before and after the rehearsal and the wedding.
  • Building use costs, which include heat and/or AC

A non-refundable deposit fee of $500 (to be credited to your final total) must be paid to reserve your wedding date on the church calendar. All other fees are due by the wedding rehearsal.

For church member wedding information, please call the office, (402) 345-1533.
