Whether you plan to have a simple, intimate ceremony or the elaborate wedding of your dreams, Sark could be the perfect setting for your wedding, with two churches, St. Peter’s Church and the Methodist Chapel or maybe the very popular Seigneurie Wedding Chapel in the grounds of the Seigneurie Gardens, which is available for civil weddings and other celebrations. Sark really does provide the perfect romantic setting for that very special day.
Our Wedding Carriage is an authentic Victoria Carriage, built in 1890. It is spacious enough to carry four people comfortably. With its plush upholstered interior it’s the ideal choice for the bride and groom, bridesmaid and pageboy. It features an invaluable retractable waterproof hood which can offer some protection against our unpredictable weather. Our Sark Wedding Carriage is tailored to individual requirements offering exceptional customer satisfaction and affordability. Our very satisfied customers have appreciated our commitment to quality, reliability and attention to detail when arranging a wedding. For your wedding, the horse that we normally use is called Elvis, chosen because of his good looks and reliability.
Thank You to Amice & Charles.

St Peter’s is Sark’s parish church, a Church of England church within the Deanery of Guernsey, and a traditional setting for a church wedding on the island. Sark’s resident minister, Revd David Stolton, is authorised to lead services there, and he is also the minister at the Methodist Church. Couples are welcome to get in touch to discuss their plans. Same-sex marriages are offered in the Methodist Church or elsewhere on the island, but not yet in St Peter’s.

You would need to book the venue separately with the owner of the property. Alternatively you can contact an authorised local Civil Celebrant.
Diane Baker: Your Wedding Celebrant on Sark. If you’re already dreaming of marrying on Sark, you probably know exactly what you want. A clifftop? A garden? A spot with a view that makes the guests forget to look at the bride and groom? (Don’t worry, they’ll remember. There’s just one thing worth knowing. If your dream spot is out on the island and you don’t live here, you’ll need to find out who owns the land and ask their permission before you say “I do.” Nobody wants to be told to leave the ceremony halfway through the vows. Diane can help you work out the details, so all you need to worry about is your day.
