A pretty church makes a pretty backdrop for wedding photos as well as a stylish society eventThat is why so many people want a church wedding. On the church side there is a fee to be paid, for the minister, any musians and for hire of the church. Some churches will not hire out to non members, others will as they see the opertunity to preach the gospel to a crowd who do not normally attend church. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the churches here will rent the church to whoever wants it for a wedding. Although there are some good pastors here, many are liberal and don't care who they marry at the church. One liberal pastor I know of appeared on TV news when gay marriage became legal saying he wanted to marry gays. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first wedding was in a Church even though neither of us were Christians. Thing is, a lot of people think they are Christians, yet really don't have a clue what it truly means. I remember the one lady, when asked if she was a Christian, said, "Of course I'm a Christian. I'm an American, aren't I?" Agnostics tend to be "Christian" when they need to be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
