According to TheKnot.com, I should use about $650 towards expenses for my ceremony.
I'm having a Catholic Wedding. So, I know that aisle runners, pew decorations, unity candles and excess decorations are generally, not allowed.
Therefore, how much should it cost? Is there a fee for the use of the church? I know generally there is a donation made, but are there an mandatory fees?
Someone please explain about how much a Catholic wedding ceremony should cost
I'm trying to put together a budget.

I'm talking ceremony costs here. Trust me, my reception is quite large.
However, $650 for the use of the church and a few flowers seems a little high.
I'm asking purely on how much a Catholic CEREMONY will cost you.

Every parish has different guidelines.
Consult with your parish's wedding coordinator for what is and is not allowed.
With love in Christ.

I am a Catholic, but not in the US so I really don't know how things are there. However where I am all that it entails is a donation to the church you will be celebrating in. The flowers and other decorations are all extras and not an essential part in your wedding celebration. Getting married in a catholic rite is all about a catholic wedding of 2 people in love pledging to love each other forever with God as their witness and remember ... what God has joined together, let no man divide. Good luck and blessings!

I am a baptised Baptist (I wager all Baptists are) married to a Catholic. We celebrated Mass once we acquired married 2 years in the past. Of direction, I did not partake of Communion, however a whole Mass used to be held. My spouse's parish priest needed to acquire permission from the archbishop to ensure that that to take position. Because of that, I could wager that the reply for your query could range by way of place. Check together with your fiance's parish priest (or the priest overseeing your pre-Cana rigamarole) to get an reply.

Fees for a church vary by church. You're going to have to call the parish where you will be married for a price list.

Good for you and may you live in bliss, but dont listen to John Maximus 1 hes either an atheist or an Evangelical scum who preach that money is the root of all evil, when they are more than happy to quickly pass the plate. Hipocrate apostate scum!

Well, unless they've changed the rules since I was a Catholic there's no objection to thumping big expensive weddings.

Considering that it is the money-hungry Caholic Church you are talking about, expect to fork over plenty of money. (compare Micah 3:11, 12)
