A church ceremony can be arranged for couples of any faith. Before you schedule your religious ceremony, whether you are envisioning yourself walking down the aisle at an intimate synagogue of a majestic cathedral, there are some things you should keep in mind.

There are many benefits to a church wedding ceremony. You can follow tradition, participate in religious customs and receive precious sacraments. However, you may also face some drawbacks depending upon your expectations. To help you decide whether a temple or church is the best choice for your wedding, consider the following pros and cons.

The pros and cons of a Church Wedding ceremony

You don’t have to pick a place for the altar or plan where your guests will be seated. You can already prepare the interior of a church for your formal service.

There are plenty of seats for guests.

Most churches have enough pews to hold large weddings. This not only saves you money, but also guarantees that your guests have a place to witness your vows.

Music is often included.

Most churches have music available for your ceremony. It’s possible to make an appointment with the choir or band before the ceremony, or ask the church director whether it is permissible for outside entertainment to be hired.

Weather is nothing to be worried about

Most churches are indoors, and provide heating and air conditioning. You don’t need to worry about the weather affecting your ceremony and making it difficult to plan for another one.

Church Tradition will be passed on to you.

Some couples look forward to receiving the sacraments and following religious traditions. A ceremony can be a great psycho crasher way to include family traditions and religious tokens from past generations.

• Cons of a Wedding ceremony
• Your reception can’t be held in a church.

A church is not the best choice if you want to have the ceremony and the reception in the same place. While some churches have a hall in the same area, it may be necessary to book and plan separately. Most couples choose to have the ceremony at a church and then take their guests to another venue for the reception.

There are very few Church decor options

You cannot arrange furniture, statues or sacred objects in this space, unlike other venues. Most churches allow flowers and runners in the aisles. To ensure that your vision is reflected in the rules, you should speak to the director.
