Are You Planning
A Summer Wedding?

Many valley residents, rs they
have tried to plan for weddings,
have been puzzled over the pro-
per procedure In arranging for
a church ceremony. To help an
swer the questions Of those plan
ming church wedding this com
ing spring Or summer, the Ma
tanuska Valley Ministerial Asso-
citation would like 70 share the
following suggestions:
Before announcing A date for
the wedding the couple should
always contact the clergyman Of
the church where they desire to
be married. This Is matter Of
both courtesy and necessity.
Either the church Or minister
may already have plans or an
other wedding scheduled for the
date desired. An early contact
will avoid disappointment or
changing Of plans. In addition, if
the couple IS not Of his church,
the minister will want to be-
come acquainted with them and
their background since he is sub
ject to the laws Of his denomina-
ton in the performing Of we'd
dings.
This initial appointment with
. him also gives opportunity for
the couple to know the regula-
tons for the use Of the church,
the service charge for heat and
utilities, provisions for organist,
janitorial service. and photogra-
phS. It is advisable not to plan
such details until church guild
ance is sought. Because an organ
can be damaged by improper US
age some churches require that
the organist be either a regular
church organist or one familiar
with their particular make of in
strument. The type Of music suit
able for church wedding should
also be considered.
Most churches assume, and
some insist, that the minister of
the church where a wedding is
to be held will always officiate.
Permission for another minister
to assist or officiate may be Civ
