  ZOMG!11!! Can you imagine a church wants you to use THEIR priest AND pay them MONEY???
  
  Sorry but this post is just bizarre. How did you book a reception site without first securing the most important part of the day... you know, the part where you exchange vows? Also, to run a church costs a lot of money. $1000 goes to lighting, heating, AC, cleanup and the priest's time. I never understand why people think it is ok to spend 10-40k on a reception site but 10% (or less!) of that is too much to give a church?

  
  RAWR!

  No idea how mucht the rental fee is but H's cousin was married at the Methuen Music Hall and the space for the ceremony was gorgeous- they also brought in their own clergy (rabbi).

  There's an Elks Hall in Chelmsford.  Salvatores in Lawrence, Diburros in Haverhill, Michaels Function Hall in Haverhill are a few that come to mind.
