Hmmm they should've told you...When we took an application from the church, they gave us a price list

In my church my understanding is that you give a 500 dollar donation and that covers the cost of pre cana... hope im not wrong.

I just did my first Pre Cana session on sunday night and it was only $50 .... i guess every church is different .. i have no idea how much the 'donation' actually is ... but the pre cana is only 6 weeks long once a week

Our church is $450 and then the pre-cana is an extra cost. it is paid to the Diosese (SP?). not the church. Denise what church are you having it at?

Re: Pre-Cana

Re: Pre-Cana

Wow they suggested you live together? I always though they were against people living together before marriage. I guess the times are changing.

I am not doing it now...Maybe in the fall, our church just said to get everything done 6 months before the wedding so we have some time.

My church requires a music fee ($225) and the church is $325!

Forget pre-cana, I thought the priest was going to have to give me 'last rights' right there!

Re: Pre-Cana
