Wedding Ceremony

1:00 pm

Semi-formal or dressy attire

A Melkite Catholic wedding will likely be a new experience for many of our guests. The ceremony begins with the Betrothal Service, wherein rings are exchanged, followed by the Crowning Service, Bible readings, and the bride and groom partaking from the Common Cup. The ceremony ends with the Dance of Isaiah. Find a spot to sit or stand and do not be concerned with participating correctly; we simply ask you to be witnesses to this holy sacrament.

Reception

5:00 pm

Semi-formal or dressy attire recommended

Cocktail hour begins at 5 o'clock in the afternoon, followed by dinner at 6 o'clock. *Parking update* You are welcome to let your guests out near the tent before parallel-parking anywhere along either edge of the paved driveway or on Jones road. There will be a few signs to guide you.
