Congratulations!

A wedding is a beautiful day that marks the beginning of a new life together.

Imagine having yours in one of the most breathtaking churches on one of the most scenic islands.

Ste. Anne Church.

Built in the 1880s, this historic building holds picturesque Victorian elegance everywhere you look. Add your wedding to 300 years of history. Every ceremony that takes place at Ste. Anne gets added to the parish register that dates back to the 1600s. You can return and see the record of your special day preserved for countless years to come.

Your life becomes part of the fabric of history.

Unforgettable.

Weddings can be performed Sunday through Friday at 1:00 PM-4:00 PM and Saturday from 9:00 AM to 2:30 PM.

Preparation and Requirements

Since Ste Anne is a Catholic church, either the bride or groom must be a practicing Catholic. Your home parish is responsible for your mandatory marriage preparation classes and paperwork, including annulments if necessary. You are encouraged to bring a priest to perform your ceremony, however if needed, Ste Anne can help supply one.

Fees

New for 2018, the fee for the church has been reduced to $250.00.  This helps defray our costs for your wedding.  The full amount should accompany your signed copy of Rules and Policies for Ste. Anne Church Weddings. If you later cancel for any reason, your fee is not refundable.  Over and above your remittance, in the spirit of good stewardship and with respect to our hospitality, please prayerfully consider making an additional donation to help us maintain our beautiful church for future years.  It would be greatly appreciated.

Separate from and in addition to the $250.00 fee, the wedding couple is to provide a stipend directly to their clergy celebrant (either their own priest/deacon or a priest/deacon arranged through Ste. Anne Church).  In the Diocese of Marquette, the norm for this stipend is $50.00.
