We applaud and welcome the recent decision of the California supreme court to extend marriage rights to same-sex couples. At The Swedenborgian Church of San Diego we have previously offered religious union ceremonies, and now we are excited by the prospect of conducting wedding ceremonies which will be legally recognized as well.

The Church of the New Jerusalem- The Swedenborgian Church of San Diego (est 1883) has been a popular and beautiful location for wedding ceremonies for over 100 years. We know that many same gender couples have been married to each other in their own hearts and minds for a long time. In a wedding ceremony here we will be honoring the sacredness of the commitment you have made to each other and we will be asking for God’s continued blessing on you in your life together as married partners.
