They wouldn't have had "their own service" if they weren't present with the church; the bread and wine/water they received was the Lord's Supper because it was an extension of the church's celebration, not their own. Ignatius (c.115) is pretty clear about the church-gathered as the place for baptism and the Lord's Supper. I used to go serve communion with my dad sometimes to people who couldn't get out to church, and it always felt like an extension of what we did Sunday as a body - a very beautiful thing. But I've never understood the exclusive taking of the Lord's Supper by bride/groom at a wedding when the rest of the church sits back and watches. Aren't we all in this together? Isn't the participation of the church community essentially what a wedding ceremony is for anyway - to have the church, as an ecclesial authority, affirm the couple's covenant? We can't all light a unity candle (nor should we), but we all drink from the same cup and share in the same bread as a sign of unity with Christ and each other.
