Arranging your Wedding Ceremony at St Mary's Church Swineshead
Weddings at St Mary’s Church, Swineshead
We are delighted that you are considering St Mary’s Church, Swineshead for your wedding.
While we await the appointment of a new Vicar, wedding enquiries are being dealt with through the Boston Deanery Partnership.
If you would like to enquire about getting married at St Mary’s, please email the Boston Deanery Partnership Administrator with your details and preferred date:
The deanery will do its best to arrange a member of the clergy to conduct your wedding, although it may not always be possible to accommodate your preferred date.
Seating at St Mary’s
There are 11 rows of pews in the church.
Within the Nave, on either side of the centre aisle, there are two rows of pews accommodating approximately 6–7 people per pew, depending on the size and age of those seated. This provides seating for approximately 143 people.
There is additional seating in the North and South aisles, although some seats have a restricted view because of the stone pillars.
The church is normally open daily from 9.30am–3pm, and you are very welcome to visit to look at the church and seating arrangements for yourself.
