I forgot to ask what the 'suggested' donation is for the Church I am getting married at. What is your 'suggested' donation?

Re: 'suggested' donation - getting married in Church
$625 for the church and music is what we are required to pay and then $75 for Pre Cana and we already paid $25 for the FOCCUS.

Unfortunately ours isn't a 'suggestion' either. It's $700 and that is before Pre-Cana too

Re: 'suggested' donation - getting married in Church
Ours was $700. Plus extra fee for choir (think it was either $300 or $350) and my parents gave priest & choir director a tip - which brought it well over $1000...
How do people pay these 'donations' when they are on a very fixed income? It seems unfair esp when a couple wants to get married in a church before God. Couples/Families should be able to just give what they can afford...not a 'set amount' determined by each church/parish...IMHO
