Weddings
Thank you for your interest in a wedding at St. James by-the-Sea Episcopal Church. We understand this is a very special day and we are ready to help you design an unforgettable and perfect wedding!
There are few places in the world more beautiful than La Jolla, and St. James by-the-Sea, with its beautiful stained glass windows and high wooden ceilings, is a historical setting designed for this perfect coastal location.
Marriage is an especially powerful sacrament because we experience a depth of intimacy and union with our partner that is both spiritual and sacred. From your first meeting with one of our clergy, to choosing the music with our Pastor for Music Ministries, our staff works closely with each couple to create a spiritual and elegant ceremony. Our required premarital counseling (included in your fee) and ceremony will be held with respect and sensitivity in the Episcopal tradition.
The church can seat up to 500 guests. For the small, intimate wedding, we have a lovely chapel that seats 50 guests. The courtyard is often used for small wedding receptions, for an additional fee.
To help you discern whether this is the church for you, please review the following wedding policy. After reading this abridged policy, please contact the wedding coordinator by email or at (858) 459-3421 x102 for further information.
