Some Final Notes

Confetti

 Confetti may be thrown as the couple leave at the steps at the west gate. Please do not throw confetti in church, at the west door or on the pathways.

Ushers

Your Ushers are a vital part of your wedding day team. They should be in position in church no less than 45 minutes before the service starts, to welcome and direct guests, hand out service sheets &c, and generally be helpful

Car parking

Please ensure that one (or more) of your Ushers is in charge of parking.

Wedding guests may use any of the church’s three car parks. The nearest is situated to the south of the church: the entrance is to the right of the steps leading to the main west gate. The other car parks are in the churchyard on the other side of the A34 Congleton to Newcastle road.

The car parks at the Egerton Arms Hotel and at the Village Hall are private property and are for the convenience of persons using those premises. Wedding guests may use the Village Hall car park only if there is no other event taking place there. Under no circumstances may cars be parked on the Village Greens. Please do not park in the roads on either side of the big Green.

Wedding cars may use the public open space in front of the main west gate. Photographers, guests and cars must be clear of this area 20 minutes before the following service.

Punctuality

Punctuality is a virtue and, since you will have been planning this day for (probably) a year or so, you know what time you have booked the ceremony to start. So, if you have
asked for, say, 2.00 pm, we expect the bride and her party in the church porch
at 1.58, with all the photographs taken, ready for the ceremony to begin on time.
