If you’re looking for a place to have your wedding, this information might be helpful.
The La Verne Church of the Brethren sanctuary, built in 1930, has the largest seating capacity in the City of La Verne. We also have a gym. Needless to say we get requests to use our building by non-members for weddings, basketball and community events.Our sanctuary has no center aisle. It has two aisles.
The sanctuary does not have air conditioning.
Our sanctuary seats 750 people easily.
Our sanctuary is accessible by ramp or stairs. There are several places where the pews are shorter to accommodate wheelchairs and walkers.
Weddings must be scheduled through the office and will not be placed on the church calendar until a wedding deposit of 50% has been paid.
Pastors of the La Verne Church of the Brethren only perform weddings for members of the church family. Non-members will need to secure their own officiant.
We do not rent out our Fellowship Hall for non-member wedding receptions.
