Would you spend $1,500 and travel out of state so that your 2nd child could be baptized in the same church as #1 and where you were married?

I guess its really a personal choice but I wouldn't. We had our children both baptized but that was more to placate my in-laws. They were baptized in 2 different churches mostly because that's what was easiest logistically. Since we don't have a "regular" church or minister we see, there were no personal connections to either location. If you have a real connection to the person who performed the 1st baptism & your wedding vows, maybe they can come to you - less costly & easier logistics.

A nice local church will do just fine.

Likely not. Do you have another reason to go? Then, yes, why not. But if not, then, no. I believe in new beginnings...

This is obviously an important church to you and your family. It's an important tradition and worth the money - in my opinion.
