Our reception is established,but we cannot have the ceremony there..We need an indoor ceremony site in Greenville for about 100 people..We have a Luthern minister who is a relative of the groom...The date is June 19 ceremony at 5:30-6:00.We would like a church but will take anything indoors for 100 people..Thanks, Frantic mother of the bride!!!!
Thank you so much for getting back to us. We will be in Greenville tomorrow, Sat., and will be looking around and will try to go in and talk to someone...because neither the bride nor the groom is Lutheran I wasn't sure if they would even want to talk to us...the bride is Catholic & the groom is kind of a Baptist. I know Catholic churches want the couple to go through the classes and raise their children Catholic...This couple has been dating since 10th grade and that makes about 8 years now....
But thank you so very much for the idea and we will check it out...
Many thanks, frantic mother of the bride
[Wedding- Try Holy Trinity - small - holds 120 beautiful & $500.00 rental so you would need muscians

We a;lso need small church in downtown area for 125 guests - non of the chapels will allow nonmembers - Christ Church, First Presb, Bucomb St., ect.... Any ideas would be apprciated!!Our daughter's wedding is Sept. 17,2011 @ 6:00 PM
Holy Trinity is gorgeous and they do accept non-members. But I wouldn't recommend it to someone who doesn't have a wedding coordinator (or someone who can stay on top of things). It is a very small church that is staffed by a very friendly minister. However, he is very difficult to get a hold of. We were going to book it for our wedding but chose not to because of the communication issue.
Where is the reception? The City of Greenville has many outdoor venues available--see their parks & rec website. They are first come, first serve, and you are not allowed to have tents. But September is usually dry so you might be ok. The Old Mill Garden is a very lovely spot, and there is a rustic picnic shelter that can be dressed up for the occasion. http://www.greenvillesc.gov/ParksRec...FallsPark.aspx
There are a few galleries around downtown that would also allow ceremonies. There's one in the West End called Zen Greenville. http://www.zengreenville.com/default.html
Good luck! PM me if you have any questions. I wrote the book on cheap wedding and reception venues in Greenville. :-)
