Weddings and Baptisms

Marriages according to the Rites of the Church of England take place in the Chapel of The Order of the British Empire located in the crypt of St Paul’s, subject to a successful application for a Special Licence granted by the Archbishop of Canterbury. This privilege is extended only to members of the Order of St Michael and St George, the Order of the British Empire, holders of the British Empire Medal, and their children (but not grandchildren).

For baptisms the same rules apply except the privilege is also extended to grandchildren. Members of the Order of St Michael and St George may have baptism services in the St Michael and St George Chapel located on the Cathedral floor.
