FAQs
Question
What time should I arrive at the ceremony?
Answer
The Wedding Mass will begin promptly at 1 PM, so please arrive by 12:45 PM to be settled before the ceremony. If you arrive after the ceremony has started, ushers will guide you to wait until it’s appropriate to enter.
Question
What should I do between the ceremony and the reception?
Answer
The classic Catholic wedding question. We know there's a bit of time between the ceremony and the reception, so we've added a few suggestions in the "Things to Do" section. Need a break before the big party? Feel free to rest up at your hotel.
