Question

What should I expect during a Catholic Wedding?

Answer

We'll have programs to walk you through the parts of the mass, but in general, you can expect music, bible readings, a nuptial ceremony, and Communion. There will be parts you stand, sit, and kneel, but the Priest will indicate when to do each. Please note: Only practicing Catholic guests should receive communion. We invite non-Catholic guests to come forward with their arms crossed to receive a blessing or to remain seated in prayerful reflection. Thank you!
