Totally out of order in my view.
If I wanted to get married in Westminster Abbey, doubtless bringing chunks of Central London to a standstill in the process, then even if I could arrange permission, I have no doubt I'd have to pay for the cost of the policing and everything else out of my own pocket.
What is unreasonable about someone questioning why royal wedding expenses should come out of the taxpayers' pocket rather than the pocket of the individuals getting married?
It would seem this MP has decided that this particular constituent is unlikely to vote for him, and as such he obviously feels he can treat him with contempt.
"The spirit of the nation will be lifted by having an extra holiday" he says. How many of his constituents can we assume are small business owners who will probably be cursing the loss of a day's revenue or the need to pay staff higher rates for the day?

I'd suggest that there is rather a lot of pressure from the powers-that-be for a royal wedding to be a full state & majesty pageant, for reasons that are too obvious and multitude to list. Kate and Wills may actually prefer a private registry office event somewhere, but obviously this is not ever going to be an option to them.If I wanted to get married in Westminster Abbey, doubtless bringing chunks of Central London to a standstill in the process, then even if I could arrange permission, I have no doubt I'd have to pay for the cost of the policing and everything else out of my own pocket.

Perhaps if you could persuade the relevant people that your wedding is also one of state, public & international interest, then they too may offer to foot some of the bill?
