Who this template is for

Wedding & Baptism Booking Request is built for small teams who need a reliable intake process who need to collect the same complete information from everyone.

  • Small teams who need a reliable intake process working in faith & congregations.
  • Teams who need to collect the same complete information from everyone without writing code or paying for a custom build.
  • Anyone replacing chasing missing details over email with one structured record per enquiry.
  • Respondents are the people you send it to — the form asks them 21 questions across 4 screens.
  • Mobile-heavy audiences, thanks to the one-question-per-screen card layout.

Why this form is useful

It removes the cost of chasing missing details over email and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.

  • 9 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
  • It collects a verified email address so replies and confirmations land.
  • It captures a phone number for urgent follow-up.
  • It pins the request to a specific date.
  • It captures a full postal address.
  • It allows multiple selections without free text.
  • Conditional logic hides 3 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
  • Splitting the form across 4 pages keeps each screen short and shows respondents how much is left.

  • Features advanced show logic: if “Ceremony type” is Baptism or christening, the form dynamically exposes “Child's full name and date of birth”. Otherwise that question never appears.
  • Features conditional validation: if “Has either of you been married before?” is Yes, “Please give details” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • All 3 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

About this template

Ceremony enquiries arrive by phone, email and after the service, and this request form gives clergy and administrators a single consistent record for every one. The enquirer chooses the ceremony type — wedding, blessing, baptism or christening, confirmation, dedication, or a funeral or memorial — and the form then asks only the questions that ceremony needs. Weddings capture both partners' names, contact details, preferred dates with alternatives, whether either has been married before, the expected number of guests and whether banns or a licence are needed. Baptisms ask for the child's full name and date of birth, the parents' details, proposed godparents and any family connection to the church. Every enquiry records the enquirer's relationship to the congregation, whether they live in the parish, and which minister they have already spoken to. A preparation section explains that meetings are required beforehand and asks for availability. The result is an enquiry the office can answer with a date rather than a list of further questions.
