That's the magic phrase right there. If you make a donation to the local church than I will bet that the priest will do your wedding for you.

When researching our wedding, we were informed by the catholic church that we wanted to get married in, that because we had a child prior to marriage that we could not have our wedding at the church. We could however make a donation and they would see what they could do. Needless to say we found a nice outdoor venue and had a JP perform the ceremony. We are both confirmed in the catholic church as well.
