Questions to ask about your Ceremony Site

Submitted by Beverly Clark Beverly Clark Planner

Before making a commitment to a particular place of worship, set up an appointment to discuss the following:

If proof of divorce or special permission from the church needed when remarrying?
What are the fees for the church or synagogue? And how much time does that allow us?
Is a small chapel available for smaller ceremonies?
Are there any restrictions regarding ceremony attire, such as bare shoulders or yarmulkes?
How many people will the church or synagogue hold?
Is there a hall or social room available for a reception? If so, is there an additional fee? If you plan to serve alcoholic beverages or wine, be sure to inquire about the policies.
Will they supply tables, chairs, linens, china, and silver?
May rice, birdseed, or rose petals be thrown?
Are there accommodations for wheelchairs?
Is an aisle runner, huppah, candelabra, or kneeling cushion available, if needed?
May the wording of the religious ceremony be changed at all?
Are there facilities for the bridal party to get dressed in?
Are there any restrictions regarding flowers or candles?
What are the rules regarding photography inside the place of worship?
Are there music restrictions that interfere with music or songs you may want?
Do you need approval for special vows you may want to incorporate?
Are there restrictions regarding the day of the week, or the time the ceremony can take place? What about religious holidays?
What are the policies on interfaith marriages? Can you combine two religious ceremonies, or have both clergymen officiate jointly?
Can you have the caterer of your choice?
