My first marriage I was married in a church and gave a donation of $300.00 after the wedding. I was super surprised that most officiants I have checked into are about $500! Is this normal? How much did you pay?
I also noticed one specified in their contract that it;s considered "rude" not to invite them to reception, with a check box for if you are inviting them. This didn't even cross my mind! Obviously if it was a friend of the family or someone who I attended church with I would, but I guess I didn't think about inviting a stranger! Did you invite yours?
