Weddings

 
 

Host your unforgettable wedding day in the heart of vibrant Memphis at Christ City Church. Our venue offers exceptional value, providing an elegant and conveniently located setting for your special celebration. Make the most of your wedding budget while enjoying the unique charm and accessibility of a prime midtown location.

Sanctuary

Exchange your vows in our beautiful Sanctuary, offering a traditional church setting with seating for up to 400 guests. Its classic ambiance and picturesque surroundings provide a memorable and elegant backdrop for your ceremony.

Prayer Chapel

For a smaller, more intimate wedding, the Prayer Chapel is a beautiful option. It can accommodate up to 15 guests seated. There is no sound or setup, just the simplicity of the chapel with the beauty of stained glass windows.

Courtyard Garden


For a simple, outdoor wedding we have the Courtyard Garden. It can accommodate up to 15 guests standing. There is no sound or setup, just the beauty of the garden.

Reception Hall

Celebrate your union in our versatile Reception Hall, accommodating up to 100 seated or 150 standing guests for your reception or rehearsal dinner. Its convenient location within the same building allows for a seamless transition from ceremony to celebration and includes access to our commercial kitchen for your caterer.

Walker Hall

For a wedding reception or rehearsal dinner with fewer than 60 people, Walker Hall is a great option. This is located down the stairs from the sanctuary and has its own prep kitchen.

“Christ City’s meeting space was a very affordable option for us. This choice freed up our budget to spend more money on other things, like our dream photographer! It was also an excellent value: The exterior was picturesque for great outdoor photos, and the ceremony space needed very little decorating! Having the ceremony and reception in the same location without having to flip a room eliminated stress for us and out-of-town guests navigating an unfamiliar city. Mandy was very easy to work with and made sure the space was clean and ready to use. Christ City’s space is the ideal location for an affordable midtown wedding!”
