Getting Started

Sherry Tucker is our Wedding Coordinator. She will schedule your wedding on our church calendar and arrange for your initial visit with the pastor who will conduct the service. Should you require assistance with music, Sherry will also arrange for you to meet with our soloists and organist/pianist.

There are many details that accompany your wedding (candles, flowers, photographs, videos, audio-visual support, sound, rehearsal, dressing rooms, staging, transportation, special needs, etc.) and Sherry will be of great help. If you have plans for your own wedding coordinator, Sherry will work with them to coordinate all of the details.

You can get started with your wedding plans by contacting Sherry Tucker (sherry@fpcbr.org) at 225.387.0617.
