Church Donation

acablitas · February 2010

I know this has been a topic before, but I thought I'd start a new thread because I can't seem to find the old one.

I know every church is different, but how much did you donate to your church for your wedding ceremony?

If there are any St. Anne's brides (Fair Lawn), how much did you donate?

TIA for your advice.

Our church fee was $200 I think....we tipped the priest $100

I think our church fee is $550 (that includes church, cantor, organist and a "wedding planner"). We are to tip the priest at our discretion; I think we're planning on giving him $100.

the church is $200. Then there were other fees to. Our church sent us a packet with all the envelopes with how much every donation were and who they were for.

My church has a suggested donation of $850. I know. It's expensive. It sucks.

my chuirch is 350 and organist is 200. Not sure what we are giving the priest, maybe 100-200

our church is $500 plus $175 fee for the music director and $175 fee for cantor/other musician... tip for the priest is additional.

All told, it was $1k. $500 to church, $200 to priest, $200 for organist, $100 for vocalist. (I included the breakdown because some churches include the priest and/or music in their "donation" so be sure to ask what it includes.)

Our church is $350 and the organist is $250.

Our church is $600 -- and that's not even negotiable. I wanted to argue with the priest that it was too expensive, but my mother threatened me with a painful death if I complained. The organist charges a separate fee: $200.

$500, but only because we're out of parish
