Any Tips on Finding Churches to marry non-members?

[Lemon75 7]

We are having trouble finding a church that will marry us due to being interfaith, and also because we both aren't members of churches (however, we do want to marry in one). Any ideas on how to find churches that will let people rent them for weddings to non-members?

Why do you want to marry in a church if you are not a member? Genuine question, because if it is for the photos, there are other places (historical buildings, park beside a church with church in background etc). If it is because you want some sort of religious venue, I suggest Universalist Churches- they tend to be modern and often not super pretty, bu usually accept anyone with a genuine belief.

I will look into that, I think its a great idea Yeah, we both wanted to marry a religious place. My fiance is even leaning more toward my religion (by his own choice), and so we want to marry a place where people believe in a higher power like us.

Any Unitarian-Universalist church.

UU's believe that all religions are valid and are simply different expressions of the divine.

Can I ask what your faiths are? Depending on your answer I may have other suggestions.
