Contact information and Policies for Baptisms, Weddings and Funerals:
 
Baptisms and Weddings:

We're delighted to talk with you about these joyous events! It's our general policy that we confer baptism and witness weddings only for active members or others who have had a long-term relationship with the parish.

For exceptions to the above, or for any other questions, please feel free to contact us at 973-764-7506 to discuss your plans.

The wedding service for the Book of Common Prayer is here: http://www.saintgabriels.org/bcp/pastoral.html#423

The Baptism service is here:

For Weddings:

At least sixth months notice is required, and you will need to plan to meet several times with the priest to discuss marriage and the ceremony itself

Optionally, you may make arrangements to provide your own minister, in which case simply reserving the space and putting down a deposit is acceptable.

There is no charge for weddings of parishioners. For other weddings, the space fee is $750, which includes cleanup and music fees.

     
 
For Baptisms:

We follow the scheduling rubrics of the Book of Common Prayer. In general we perform baptisms during the regular worship services on:

The Great Easter Vigil (the evening before Easter Day)
The Day of Pentecost
All Saints' Day (November 1, or the Sunday after it)
The Baptism of the Lord (the first Sunday after January 6)

You will need to meet with the vicar for a rehearsal and instruction the day before.
There is no charge for baptisms.

We do not perform private baptisms except in the case of medical emergency.

         
 
For Funerals:

We are pleased to provide funeral services for anyone who asks. Please call the office at 973-764-7506 should you need to.
