Inman Park Church has been one of Atlanta’s favorite and most sought-after locations for weddings for more than 150 years. For additional information please don’t hesitate to reach out to our wedding coordinator.
PHILOSOPHY
Inman Park United Methodist Church believes that marriage is a sacred covenant and is open to non-members for their marriage ceremony. The joining of a man and a woman in holy matrimony is an event blessed by God and the community. Inman Park United Methodist Church is a Christian church and therefore affirms Christian marriage. However, Inman Park United Methodist Church also acknowledges and respects religious diversity. Therefore, our doors are open to those of different faith traditions. Any ordained and credentialed minister from a denomination may perform the marriage (online ordinations are not accepted); however, IPUMC’s minister is available.
FACILITY
Inman Park United Methodist Church’s Sanctuary will seat up to 200 guests (we currently only allow for 120 due to COVID-19). It is furnished with original pulpit furniture and pews and is graced with two large and several smaller stained glass windows.
The Sanctuary has both an organ and piano for musical accompaniment, and a sound system is available for pre-recorded music. The Hurt Room is available as the Bride’s Room.
Inman Park Church is located one-half block from the Trolley Barn, a popular reception venue.
USE OF FACILITY
Inman Park United Methodist Church is both a sacred and historic place. The church asks that this be kept in mind when planning music and decorations for the wedding ceremony. We have many items for use without charge, including candelabras and banners. Decoration, moving of items in the sanctuary, and music should be discussed with the Wedding Coordinator.
MAKING ARRANGEMENTS
Contact our Wedding Coordinator below to check the dates on which you are interested in celebrating your marriage. We recommend that a visit be made to the church to see the facility. Please contact the wedding coordinator to set up an appointment.
To confirm a date, a Wedding Information Packet must be completed and a deposit of $250 received. The Wedding Information Packet will dictate what other arrangements will need to be made in regards to the church. The church requires that you use our director for your wedding. Her services include a consultation before the wedding and presence at the rehearsal and wedding.
The remaining fees due to IPUMC must be paid three weeks prior to the wedding.
