Solomon's United Church of Christ offers officiant services and a small venue space for weddings. Our rural grounds in Chambersburg, PA, are beautiful, especially in the summer and fall when our various gardens are blooming! Our sanctuary is simple and a little retro. The smaller space makes it feel intimate and special, while the upholstery on the pews gives a fun pop of color. Our social room is a blank canvas that can be decorated to fit your vision.
Pastor Julia is an ordained clergywoman in the United Church of Christ. She loves a good love story, and is always excited to celebrate marriage! She can help you customize your ceremony so that it feels like you, or make recommendations based on tradition. You can be as hands-on or off as you like! As part of preparing for marriage, Pastor Julia facilitates premarital conversations (usually called counseling, but Pastor J is not a licensed therapist/counselor). Those conversations are fully confidential and non-judgmental - they are designed to help couples ensure they have talked with each other about the important things.
If you're looking for an affordable small venue space, an officiant for your ceremony, or both, we would be glad to speak with you!

Hi! I'm Pastor Julia! I am an ordained clergywoman, authorized in the United Church of Christ. I received my Master's of Divinity from Fuller Theological Seminary. My [second] favorite part of planning my wedding [after dress shopping] was planning the ceremony. It would be my pleasure to walk with you as you plan that portion of your wedding, prepare for your marriage, and celebrate your union! I'm happy to help you customize your ceremony, or I can put something together for you based on tradition. Whatever will help you have fun and feel special!

Pastor Julia was AMAZING! She made the process so easy for us and really took the time to get to know us as a couple. I would highly recommend using Solomon's for your officiating needs, even if you are not someone who attends church regularly!

My husband and I were so very happy to have Pastor Julia from Solomon's Church of Christ be the officiant for our wedding day. She spent time getting to know us as a couple and adapted the ceremony to suit us. Pre-marital counseling was included via Zoom, and it helped us to grow even stronger together.
The ceremony turned out beautifully, and I have had so many guests comment on how amazing the ceremony was - traditional, yet personalized, her words joined us in a loving union. We are so grateful for having found Pastor Julia through the Knot. Thank you!
