Church Weddings

[charliangel]

Hi All

Busy trying to plan our wedding for next July, original plan was for a nice intimate civil ceremony then a big dance.

The more we are thinking about it, the more we like the idea of a church wedding.

Does anyone know the costs involved in a church wedding, do we need to pay for the ministers time, the use of the church etc??

Thanks

i got married over 12years ago and i think the church including minister was about 60 pounds.

Best thing to do is phone a minister but from what I can mind it was £264.00 or around about that.

Good luck on the day but im sure you wont need it:lol:

It all depends on the Minister and what Church.

Some will have a standard amount to pay, others will will say that they accept a Donation and other Ministers will say that no Payment is required. One thing that does need to be paid for is the Organist.

I wish you well in organising your Special Day and I wish you a long and Happy Marriage.
