My fees are set by the church based on AGO guidelines... In short a "simple" 
wedding with one rehearsal is $175.00 addition rehearsals with soloists 
instrumentalists are $25 each.  Funerals $100.00.  

This fee structure is in my contract with the church; however, I can't tell 
you how many funerals I've gotten stiffed with and the pastor just says that he 
gets stiffed more often than not. He says he has a hard time putting his hand 
out for  cash when someone's grieving.  Personally, I'd rather not do 
funerals or weddings -- too much hassle.
