Weddings at NIMMO UMC
Nimmo's historical church building is a great place to celebrate the sacrament of marriage with friends and family. Contact us to learn more and schedule today.
Are you one of those people who drove by Nimmo and thought to yourself, “That’s where I want to get married?” Well, you wouldn’t be alone. Countless weddings have been performed in our historic sanctuary since the mid-19th century. You too could become a part of Nimmo’s storied history. For spring, summer, and fall weddings, take advantage of our shady grove of trees, or the Nimmo Garden for photos before or after the ceremony.
Scheduling at
Nimmo Church
You must contact the church office regarding the availability of the sanctuary. (Due to the full church calendar for December, weddings are only held in special circumstances.) If a suitable date is open (you can also check our online calendar to see if there are dates open), please call the office to schedule a meeting to discuss scheduling your wedding.
Counseling and
Marriage Prep.
Reverend Griffin believes marriage is hard work and your wedding ceremony is uniquely special, which is why there will be three to four premarital sessions. Each session will only last about an hour. During that time, the bride or groom may meet with the pastor for personal counseling.
