If damages are incurred, the amount needed to repair or replace the damaged property will be subtracted from the refunded amount. If more than $350 worth of damage is incurred the renting party will be billed for costs above and beyond the damage deposit.
- All weddings performed by outside officiants must be approved by the Lead Pastor before the event is booked.
- Members and Active BBC Attendees receive a small waiver/discount. Please contact the wedding coordinator for an official quote.
- The Nursery and classrooms are not available for use during weddings. Please respect the church building and grounds and only use the spaces listed in your contract. Two classrooms will be available for use by the wedding party to change and prepare for the ceremony. Please discuss which rooms will be used with the coordinator.
