Wedding Request

Your wedding day will likely be one of the best remembered days of your life, and we at Fellowship Alliance Chapel are excited to share in that with you! At FAC, we believe that your marriage is even more important than the wedding day itself. While we are happy to assist you in coordinating the details for your ceremony, we also value the preparation that goes into preparing for a healthy marriage. It is for this reason we have established a preparation process for engaged couples, including things like assessments and coaching. If you are part of an engaged couple desiring to get married at FAC, or by an FAC pastor, please answer the questions below and review the attached Marriage Guidelines. 

It will be a joy to assist you as you prepare for this exciting time in your life!

Marriage Guidelines

The commitment of marriage is one of the most important decisions a couple can make, and we at Fellowship Alliance Chapel are honored to support you during this exciting time. Our prayerful hope is that your love for each other and for the Lord is strengthened as you prepare for marriage. When God created man and woman, He intended that they be joined in marriage to reflect His image. His design is an intimate, supportive union that is rooted firmly in the foundation of faith in the Gospel. At FAC, it is our desire that your marriage be all that God intended and that it be a deeply meaningful relationship. For couples seeking to be married at FAC or by an FAC pastor, we have developed the following guidelines to express what we believe are God's principles for a healthy marriage:
  1. Participation in our premarital counseling is required for couples who desire to be married at FAC or by any FAC pastor. Successful completion of all components of premarital counseling is required before the wedding date. To allow for this we suggest allowing at least six months between your application and the wedding date.
  2. An FAC pastor is required to oversee all weddings taking place on-site or at Camp Fellowship. Additionally, an FAC event coordinator will organize details associated with using our facilities. Couples being married on-site at FAC or utilizing an FAC pastor at an off- site venue must have accepted Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord and must be committed to establishing a Christian marriage. 
  3. Couples must remain sexually pure and should not be living together prior to the wedding ceremony.
  4. Couples must receive their parents' blessing on their marriage. This blessing is important: as children are instructed by God to "Honor your father and mother," God promises the couple "That it may go well with you and that you may live long in the land" through their obedience (Ephesians 6:1-3). We understand that not all couples have the ability to receive their parents’ blessing due to personal circumstances. In these cases, the pastor overseeing the couple’s premarital counseling will work with the couple to assign a comparable advocate, if necessary.
  5. If the pastor overseeing the wedding has refused to perform the ceremony because these biblical principles cannot be upheld, no other pastor at FAC will marry the couple.
  6. Divorced persons may be considered for marriage at FAC if they meet one of these biblical criteria:
    • former spouse is deceased (Romans 7:2, I Corinthians 7:39)
    • divorce occurs prior to conversion (II Corinthians 5: 1 7)
    • divorce occurred because of sexual immorality (Matthew 19:3-9)
    • desertion by an unbelieving spouse (I Corinthians 7: 15)
    • former spouse-initiated divorce and has remarried (Romans 7:3)

We have read, understand, and agree to conform to the FAC Marriage Guidelines attached to this questionnaire
