Every year, thousands of couples choose to marry in an Anglican church using the words of the Common Worship marriage service. This expanded version of the best-selling Marriage booklet has been designed to help couples and clergy plan the service with ease. Featuring both the contemporary Common Worship form of the service and the traditional language Solemnization of Matrimony (as popularised by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge), it also contains popular hymns, readings and prayers suitable for weddings, as well as advice on how couples can personalize the service. It makes an ideal gift for clergy to give to couples and can be used as an order of service on the day of the wedding itself.

The Good Book Stall

This provides the complete Common Worship marriage service, plus hymns, readings and prayers to help couples and clergy plan the service with ease. It can also be used as an order of service on the day itself. Publisher  
A while ago, the Church of England launched the successful (and indispensable) 'Your Church Wedding' website. This book may be thought of as a paper version of that site and certainly seeks to meet the same need.  
This is a volume which one imagines will be either bought or borrowed by couples who are planning a wedding and want a guide to the many choices which exist within the service itself. Each section is introduced by a brief section addressed to the couple, followed by one addressed to the minister, which introduces a selection of readings, hymns and so on. There are two services included, the first from Common Worship and the second being the traditional language service introduced in the last century. The latter was used at the recent royal wedding.  
The book is a useful tool for those putting together a wedding service, and is more wieldy than the Pastoral Services volume. The inclusion of hymns, readings (Biblical and not) and prayers will be of particular use to those who are unfamiliar with church services.
