    I'm getting married there in the Spring and was wondering if there are any other bees getting married there, too! I'm so excited and so nervous at the same time!

    I am not becuse I am getting married on a Friday and they only do Sat weddings!! I'm so excited for you, that is going to be gorgeous!!

    Do you mind if I ask how much it was? The churches I am looking at are $2500 or $1500K respecitively

    I wish! We decided to not to an NYC wedding because we wanted to make a "mini" destination out of it by having it at the Shore. But part of me wishes we were doing a big glamorous NYC event.

    Do you mind telling me about what you had to do to book the church? I heard you have to be a part of the congregation right?

    @JrzyGurl:Where on the shore are you getting married? I was *almost* going to do the shore, my FI's family has a house down there, but since I am not from NJ, we decided to do a NYC wedding.

    @JrzyGurl: Oh, I LOVE Cape May! Well, it was actually easier than I thought to book the church. You don't actually have to belong to the parish as long as you live within a certain area to be considered.  I just called, talked to the priest in charge of special events to schedule an interview.  A few days later I met with him and that day we set the date.  I met with him somewhere in the beginning of May this year and booked May 14th of next year (and I was the first one to book the date at that point).  I guess it's like an urban legend that St. Pat's is booked 4 years out, haha!

     

     

    @DashingBride: Ahhh, thanks that's so sweet! I think we are paying $2000 for the donation (which includes the organist and singer). We're SO excited!

    @pdescenza: You are so lucky to be getting married there! The churches I am looking at are close to that or over and they aren't near as beautiful as St. Patricks! All the best to you!

    Where is your reception being held?

    @pdescenza: I am hoping to be a St. Patrick's bride! My wedding isnt until March 2012 and the Priest told me to call back after Easter 2011 because they dont have the wedding book open for 2012 yet. I told him I live by Wall Street so I am not zoned for the church but he still said to call for appt after Easter. I am hoping they will have us! I always had the Tavern on the Green / St. Pat's dream but of course half of that is impossible so we will see!

    @mrsesq:I'm sure that is fine. I think the priest was telling me about people from L.I. getting married there! Good luck, good luck, good luck! I hope you get it!
