But marriage in a church isn't valid until you sign the marriage register (which is a civil requirment) and that's what makes it a marriage and not the church ceremony
So again it's the church leaders discriminating against some people as to what they will accept. Strange as a good proportion of church members will allow their church to used for ceremonies concerning civil partnerships so I'm very surprised that the leaders don't realise this.
