Weddings

Looking for an old-fashioned church with country charm in which to hold your wedding? How about an easy to find church built in 1917 with freshly restored wooden pews, lovely stained glass windows, and able to comfortably seat 175 people? Just right to give your special occasion that intimate, warm feeling that many couples are looking for. DuPont Community Presbyterian Church may be just for you. There are several advantages to choosing our facility to make your experience a sweet memory, cherished for years to come.

Your guests will feel ushered back in time to the smells, feel, and atmosphere of a church from ages past. Everyone will be able to view your ceremony while seated in pews that gently slope down to the front of the sanctuary. The stained glass windows are perfect for decorating and the pews are easily studded with bows and wisps of greenery.

We are currently considering ways to transform our downstairs nursery into a bridal suite for the bride and her bridesmaids to make final preparations before their walk down the aisles.

 You may choose to either have 

 your reception downstairs in our

 simple but roomy fellowship hall or in

 one of DuPont's nearby hotels.

 Or, you can take advantage of the lush green park situated right

 behind the church. Perfect for beautiful photo-taking and

 videography both before and after the service!

We also offer a complete package of service options and links, which can take some of the stress out of planning your wedding.
