Christ Community Church of Greater Lansing is an amazing place to have your wedding. The historic Romanesque structure, one block north of the State Capital, was built in 1889 and is complete with beautiful stained glass, curved oak pews and one of the largest pipe organs in mid-Michigan.

The Church is available to members as well as non-members and welcomes Christian clergy from other mainstream Christian denominations to officiate weddings. All outside clergy must be approved by our Senior Pastor before a wedding date can be confirmed.
