Yes... the situation is that the pastor isn't really expecting payment but we wanted to know what is a good amount to give... not too little and not too much...for the counseling and all the ceremony stuff.

Why would you even think to pay him?

Because doing a wedding is a lot of work... plus its customary too isn't it?
 
Maybe you could get your best man to ask the pastor what's customary. I think he's the one that's supposed to give him the money from you.

Long ass speech by the Pastor "Marrawidge" like the Priest in The Princess Bride "...and then Jesus took the urns and turned the water into wine... blah, blah, blah." The lighting of the candles, "I now pronounce Man and Wife"

(Say "you may kiss the bride" already)

And, I'm sure they didn't see how much your hands were on her @ss the rest of the night. 😉

 
I hated the pastor who married my wife and I. We only saw him once before the wedding, my wife was only able to get ahold of him on the phone before hand maybe 2 times before that. We tried to setup times with the church secretary but that never seemed to work.

He got jack.

ah, you might go to hell for that move 🙂

 
My sister got married last week. In her case the pastor had to drive about 6 hours to get there. I tihnk they made about a $200 donation to the church and $150 to the pastor.
 
We paid $200. Pastor's got to make a living too. Our pastor was a good friend and did a great job. I think we would have given him some money (or some kind of gift) even if there wasn't a fee.
 
My wife is a Wedding planner. She said that it's normally standard to give a donation to the church of $100 or so. But if you are hiring an outside person to go somewhere for the wedding, then nomally more like $200-$250.
