What is everyones thoughts on having your ceremony at a church or at the RH? I'm def more spiritual than religious and my FH can go either way. I just feel like it is going to be alot of work at the church since my FH only was Baptised in the church. Part of me wants to do the traditional thing and the other wants an outdoor ceremony. What are the pros and cons of this? Here are mine:
Pros to a church: -having a traditional wedding -being able to take pictures in between anywhere we like -Making the older family member happy -Taking pictures at the church
Cons: -Having to do pre cana -have my FH go through all these intense classes to be able to get married in the Catholic church -pay alot of money -not be able to have our date -having to follow the churches rules
Pros to ceremony at hall: -We will all be in one place less limos!! -Pretty outdoor ceremony -won't have to rush around to get from the church to the hall
Cons: -may be to chilly- or bad weather -do not like the indoor ceremony option -may miss some of the cocktail hr
What do u ladies think???

Re: Church vs RH Ceremony
one other con to getting married at a church is that you'll have to travel more with your hair and make-up. if you get married at the RH, you can get ready there and never have to get in/out of a car (or go outside if it's torrential downpour.
i think this is a very personal decision and comes down to a lot more than aesthetics. think about what you would like your officiant to say - is it religious or secular?

Re: Church vs RH Ceremony
Both of us were not very religious for the past few years but when we booked our RH I really thought I would be okay with getting married there then I realized I wanted to be married in a church
1. That is always were I saw myself getting married (to me personally it feels more real but that is probably b/c I was very involved in the church when I was younger)
2. We wanted time between our ceremony and CH to take pictures..we want to spend our entire reception with our family and friends as well
