I'm not sure what you are looking for here... the difference is going to be lighting, really... I'd suggest visiting the site at the same time of day to see what type of lighting you might be dealing with... but I'd suggest doing that for any location you've never been to before.

1. Check with the priest / minister to see what you are allowed to do (flash / no flash) and where you are allow to be (back of church / alter / behind him).
2. Visit the church before hand to see where the best position would be - light comes in this window, I should stand over here, etc.
3. Take some test shots in the church and know your camera - you only have minutes to capture everything - it would not be the time to figure out how to use your camera.
4. Capture what you see - tight shots and wide shots as well.
5. Did I mention - know your camera and its limits.
