Some info Before your big day…
Hope’s ordained pastors officiate weddings at Hope Church as well as other venues in our city. Many couples host the wedding at the reception venue. If you are wanting a Hope Pastor to officiate off campus, please contact us at weddings@hopechurchmemphis.com and we will assist you in arranging for a Hope pastor.
Premarital counseling is offered through a variety of ways. Rules of Engagement is a small group setting that meets several times during the year. This class covers the state requirements for a reduced fee for your marriage license. Our pastors also will require that you meet with them as a couple to prepare for your marriage. Each pastor has their own requirements.
A requirement for having a wedding *at Hope Church is that you have a relationship with Hope, by either being a member, parents are members, or you are a regular attendee and have a willingness to participate in the Introducing Hope Series to become a member. Weddings at Hope Church are officiated by Hope Pastors.
*Please note that Hope does not rent its facilities to persons that do not have a relationship with Hope.
