Compulsory Fees
There is a required legal fee for marrying in a church.
In 2024 it costs £623 if you marry away from where you live and £567 if you marry in your home parish. This is set by the Church of England nationally and is the same for every church.
This basic legal fee includes the cost of the vicar, the church, calling your banns, a banns certificate, the marriage certificate, lighting and all administration.
