Just think how easy it would be to have your ceremony and reception within the same venue! That’s what you get with church and temple wedding venues. By hiring a place of worship for your big day, there’s no need to have multiple bookings with separate venues and vendors. You just book one place, and let their experienced hands guide your wedding day.

There are many more advantages to having a spiritual wedding ceremony than simply logistics. Choosing to tie the knot religiously actually offers up lots of practical, and touching benefits over a standard venue wedding. Things that you may not have considered on first reflection.

The deepest reason most couples decide to marry within a church or temple wedding venue is their belief, and the belief of their family. Being able to keep a faith going within a family is a rightly important task for many. A church ceremony offers the opportunity to honor the religion of both families, and celebrate in a way that respectfully brings them together.

It’s understandable to believe before arranging a religious wedding that the rituals are fixed, and there’s little to no opportunity of integrating family themes or particular spiritual keepsakes into your ceremony. But in fact, religious officiants are typically very open to this kind of thing. Desiring that their couples feel like their ceremony is unique, and a union of two families. As that will help to keep the faith for further generations.

The officiants who preside over ceremonies within church or temple venues are usually a part of that place of worship, and are therefore included in the price of your wedding. Which can be a massive plus when putting together a tight budget.

Churchgoers and temple worshipers will know that their place of faith is designed, and already set up, to host weddings. Everything is prepared. From the altar, to the seating and the dramatic aisle entrance – it’s all there. Meaning, all you need to do is add your touches of personality to the space. Be that through tasteful floral decoration, or the thoughtful introduction of a color scheme.

Places of worship, depending on where they’re based, are also typically built to house a large number of people. Most are designed to host entire town’s on a Sunday morning! Which means when planning your guest list, there’s often no need to reduce the numbers when having a church or temple wedding ceremony.

Planning an outdoor wedding ceremony can also cause a lot of stress leading up to the big day, with the threat of bad weather always a possibility. But with a temple or church wedding you eliminate this fear, and gift your guests the comfort of a heated, or air-conditioned space that can host your ceremony without interruption. No need for a backup plan!

Alongside not needing to hire furniture, or bring in an officiant for your ceremony, music is also typically provided. Choirs, bands, and singers are often members of the church or temple, and are available to perform during your exchange of vows. You could, of course, bring in outside musicians, especially if you intend to have the reception on-site too. But it’s often quite nice, and appreciated, if you use the talented members of the community at your disposal.

For those choosing to marry in a particular church because it holds sentimental value, or it’s the place of worship for their family/families. The look of the temple or church is not something you can pick. But for those free to choose whichever place of worship they desire, you’re opening yourself up to some pretty epic wedding photography backdrops.

Whether you’re tying the knot in a grand old temple, or a tiny church in a faraway town, your photographer will adore capturing every detail of it. Temples and churches are often blessed with the most beautiful architecture, and design, which can give your wedding photos an exceptional quality.
