Weddings at PCBC
Park Cities Baptist Church is a beautiful and spiritually uplifting setting for your wedding ceremony. We’d love to connect with you as you consider a venue and to assist with your planning.
To have a wedding in either Ellis Chapel or the Sanctuary, the bride, groom, one of the parents or grandparents must be members for at least three months. We’d love for you to consider making Park Cities Baptist your church home and invite you to plan a visit on any Sunday morning for worship. And whether you’re a church member or not, you can be a part of our popular NearlyWed Seminar for engaged couples. Please read what PCBC believes about marriage here.
