Prior approval by the Old Zion Board of Directors will be required. Receiving Line To help keep the Renter within their two-hour rental window, Old Zion Church suggests not having a receiving line. Instead, Old Zion Church suggests having the Best Man make an announcement after the bridal party has exited the church. The announcement should ask guests to head to the reception site, where they will be ‘received’ by the bride & groom. Doing so will allow the happy couple a little quiet time together inside the church, and allow time for indoor photos before the church is locked. Throwing rice, birdseed, artificial flower petals, confetti, or any other debris inside or outside of the building is not permitted. Alternatives such as ribbon wands and bubbles are permitted for use outside. Animals Animals are not permitted on church property, except certified service animals.
