Mine is $500 and then an additional $200 for the singer and organist (and if i dont use the church's singer and organist I still have to pay the $200 )

Maybe the closet at St. Pats. It is a small community church in East WIlliston. It is so pretty but I think they are taking advantage of my non-religiousness. lol.

$650 (*subject to increase) as it state so clearly in the book. Not including tipping the alter servers and organist. The folk group will be an additional $200 I think...but they are really good so I think we are going to do it.

$500 including organist, cantor, and tips.
Also, our church rarely uses real flowers so they offered us access to their huge assortment of silk flowers to decorate with so we don't waste money on a flower offering.
They said they'd just throw them out when we left.


ETA:
The first church we were booked at (my family parish) was over $900 and we had to pay for the musicians whether we used them or not.

about 1200 but that was including the $350 precana retreat and were not doing that so precana came out to 175 so a little less...the fee also includes the $500 donation
