A Wedding Coordinator will assist you in planning space-related wedding details involving the use of the building. Please call the church office for a Wedding Coordinator’s name and telephone number. The wedding coordinator can also assist you in locating florists, caterers, etc.
Please contact the Wedding Coordinator for information regarding a sound technician, organist, pianist, soloist, or other musicians. The organ, piano and sound system may be used only by First Church in Swampscott personnel or by others on approval. Fees for musicians or pastors are by personal arrangement and are not included in the space rental fee.
Our Wedding Planner will gladly recommend tasteful placement of flowers, ribbons and other decorations. You and/or your florist are responsible for the placement and removal of greenery or flowers.
The sanctuary is available at no charge for funerals of First Church in Swampscott members and their families (i.e., parents and children). For non-members, use of the sanctuary is $250 for a maximum of three hours. Please make arrangements with the church secretary. If other (other than incidental) space is also required at the time of the funeral, regular rental rates apply.
Since rented space will be reserved for your exclusive use, rental fees will be forfeited to First Church upon cancellation of the event by you for any reason other than inaccessibility due to severe weather (such as heavy snow). This policy is strictly enforced. Any damage deposit not required is refundable.
Please mail your completed Space Rental Application along with the deposit to:
Secretary, First Church in Swampscott, Congregational, 40 Monument Ave, Swampscott, MA 01907
