Get Married in the Smokies!







Gatlinburg Presbyterian Church has an extraordinarily beautiful sanctuary, thanks, in large measure,
to the exquisite stained-glass windows that were created by the J. & R. Lamb Studios of Tenafly,
New Jersey. The sanctuary will seat approximately 200 people, with extra seating available in the
balcony.   There is a broad center aisle, as well as two side aisles. The balcony provides
 an ideal vantage point for a photographer or videographer.

The facilities of the Church include a large social hall behind the sanctuary, which would
be quite suitable for wedding receptions. Kitchen facilities are nearby, in an
adjoining room. Free parking is available behind the Church.

1. No wedding is permitted to be scheduled while other activities are
    taking place in the church.
2. An official representative of the church must be present during the entire
    time the wedding party is using the church. The prices below include this expense.
3. The Pastor of the Gatlinburg Presbyterian Church will have the first priority to perform
    any wedding that takes place. If the Pastor is unavailable to serve or if the bride wishes
    to use another Pastor, arrangements must have the approval of either the GPC Pastor
    or the Session of the church.
4. The total time allowed for weddings includes florist deliveries, set up, ceremony,
