Weddings


PHOTO-2023-09-04-15-08-13We’re here to help you to celebrate the joy of your wedding day. We’ll help you through each stage of the planning process and make sure your service is personal to you. Holy Trinity Church in the heart of our city is a popular location for weddings.

Your wedding can be one the most joyful and significant events for you. For such a special day, we offer a unique place in Coventry. You’re welcome to marry in church whatever your beliefs, whether or not you are baptised and whether or not you go to church. We would be delighted to help you to commit your lives to one another and to ask God to bless your marriage.

You’ll be keen to know whether your preferred date is possible. Marriages usually take place on Saturdays, but other days of the week are certainly possible, provided a minister is available. Contact Evette our weddings coordinator using the form below to enquire if your preferred date is available for you.

Prayers of Love and Faith


Church of England parish churches are not legally able to offer marriage services for same sex couples. If you would like to have a conversation about receiving Prayers of Love and Faith for same sex couples, please contact the Vicar, Revd Richard Hibbert, via the Church Office. He can explain your possible options and advise on which churches to contact locally. Such Prayers are a recently accepted provision within the Church of England.

Planning your Visit

Planning your visit 

 

A Warm Welcome.

Church front view-NightYou are very welcome to visit our 900-year old Church, whether to take in the history, to pray, to light a candle, to write a prayer request, or just to sit and have some space.

For visiting during the week

We are usually open for visitors and private prayer: Wednesday to Saturday, 11.00am to 3.00pm and Sunday, 12.30pm (after the morning services) until 4.30pm. Our welcome team should be around to greet you and take any questions at these times. 

To see the clergy (Revd Canon Richard Hibbert or Revd Carolyne Powell) , please contact the church office to make an appointment.

There is a Holy Communion service most Wednesdays at noon, lasting approximately 40 minutes and followed by refreshments.  It takes place in the Marler Chapel, which is within the main church building.

For visiting on Sundays

We have three services:

Though varying in style and types of worship, each helps us to explore and understand the love of God and what that means to our lives.

Over summer holiday periods and at special times, like Easter, Harvest and Christmas, we often change our Sunday services to bring the two main morning congregations (9.30am and 11.15am) together at 10.30am.

Please check our Church calendar to know our service timings.

Children

If you have children, pre-schoolers have their own carpeted  area with toys where you can sit comfortably as a family and still be part of the service. Primary and Secondary children may join an age-appropriate activity group for part of the service when announced.

Parking

There are council car parks in Salt Lane and West Orchard, a short walk to the church. Disabled parking is available on Cuckoo Lane (CV1 5RN), very close to the church, but from Monday to Saturday only (10am-6pm) requires an ANPR permit – available from the office. There is no general parking available at the church.

Please refer to our Church calendar or our Latest News letter to know What’s On.

We’d love to welcome you to any of the services listed here.  For more information on each of the church services and Who we are, follow the links below.
