The congregation of University Place Christian Church offers its congratulations as you consider a new beginning in your life.

Marriage is an important ceremony along the journey of life. Because of its importance, it is a ceremony that we continue to uphold.

The commitment, the ritual, the sharing of vows in a public context continues to provide meaning and order to our significant relationships.

At University Place Christian Church we value the opportunity to offer this ministry to the campus community and to the larger community as well. Within the ceremony of marriage we have the opportunity to share, to live, to journey with another individual. Marriage is a testimony by two persons to the wholeness in life and a hope that springs from faith. The wonder and beauty of travel upon life's journey is graced and cared for by your chosen companion. This journey, this companion, this commitment you will be making, reveals a God who accepts each one of us, whose love is unconditional, and who offers hope where none existed before.

We look forward to share in your Great Beginnings!

At Uni Place, we understand that your wedding represents not only your relationship with your partner but also what you value as important. We would like to help you to reflect those ideas and values within this important ceremony.

The Sanctuary of University Place Christian Church is breathtaking in both its clean simplicity and dignity.The dark wood, highlighted by mission-style details, is both fresh and uplifting. The 100 foot center aisle leading toward the chancel and the Rose Window are breathtaking for a wedding ceremony.

In addition, use of the Sanctuary includes candelabra and aisle candles. The Sanctuary seats 450.

In addition to the Sanctuary, weddings can also be held in Fisher Chapel. Fisher Chapel is a more contemporary space. Light colored wood, stone floor, and beautiful stained glass windows create an intimate and significant space for ceremonies from any faith tradition. Fisher Chapel seats 80.

The Courtyard is located outside between Fisher Chapel and the main building. It includes a stone covered patio and surrounding gardens. It could accommodate approximately 35 people.

The Parlor includes a fireplace and is lined with bookcases. It offers a "living room" atmosphere, which includes sofa and love seats.

Both the Courtyard and the Parlor are available for weddings at no charge other than custodial fees.
