Your
Wedding
What better start could
you have to your new life together, than to make
your vows before God, in this picture-perfect little
church ?
For almost a century
loving couples have been making their promises
before the beautiful hand carved wooden altar, as
the sun streams through the stained glass windows
blessing their union in a very special way.

The
church was designed by Sir Herbert Baker,
built by a team of Italian stonemasons
under the leadership of a Mr. Gemignani,
and funded by the local community. The
building was completed in 1913, and the
church has been used for local worship
every Sunday since that date.
Up
to seventy friends and family can be seated
comfortably on the polished wooden pews,
with extra seating available for around ten
people in the form of additional chairs
placed at the back of the church.
Entry to St.
Peter’s is through the old lychgate, along
a stone path which winds through the
stunning, landscaped gardens, under the
ancient, massive jacaranda trees, to the
church steps. The gardens, and
arched entrance to the church are a
photographers dream!
The
church is open to the public, virtually
every day of the week from 7am to 5 pm.

For absolute convenience the wedding car
is able to park right next to the
lychgate. Parking for guests close by.
The
gardens are planted in such a way that
whichever time of year you choose for your
wedding, you can be assured of an
abundance of natural beauty and colour as
a setting for your special event.

With our local
knowledge, we are able to assist with
recommendations for hairdressers,
florists, photographers, and also for a
variety of accommodation options for the
bride and groom and/or the guests.
We also have available the services of two
local organists, should you require
traditional music. There are power
points in the church should you prefer
recorded or other electronic music.
 We
welcome persons of all denominations to
hold their marriage services in our lovely
church, and trust that doing so will
provide you, your family and your guests
with a wonderful blessing, and very happy
memories!
