wanna get married

margaretclare

For some churches, if you're a member they don't charge at all for the wedding ceremony.

This is what we did 5 years ago come January, as we're both members of our local Methodist Church there was no charge for a church wedding.

We still had to pay £30 each though, to 'register our intention to marry', at the registrar's.

Sometimes it is about the fun you can have on little money. The family and friends also feel more included if you ask them if they could make the cake(my mum did that) or prepare their famous vol au vants(my sister in law did that) or their punch(my brother in law did that)
We got everyone involved, they were happy to and cut the cost right down by getting married in a registry office.
Everyone 'muckin in' brings them together and makes it part 'their day' also, it was truly great and even more so to know that we would not have to be paying for it for years to come!! xx
