Question

What is a Catholic Ceremony?

Answer

For our non-Catholic family and friends, we want you to feel completely welcome and at ease during our church ceremony! Because we are celebrating a convalidation ceremony outside of a standard Mass, the service will be shorter—lasting about 30 to 40 minutes. It will include beautiful readings, chosen by us, a short sermon, and our exchange of vows and blessings. You will notice the congregation sitting and standing at various points. Please feel free to participate in these movements as you are comfortable, or simply remain seated—there is absolutely no pressure. We are so incredibly grateful to share this sacred moment with the people we love most!

Question

What time should I arrive at the ceremony?

Answer

The ceremony will start at 2:30 PM Sharp. Please arrive 30 minutes before the ceremony to get settled.

Question

What is the dress code?

Answer

We want you to feel comfortable and ready to celebrate with us, so we are keeping the attire cocktail attire or semi-formal! During our church ceremony, we kindly ask that you dress modestly for the sacred space (something you're comfortable wearing when sitting and standing). Cocktail/Semi-formal attire: men can opt for a suit or a neat blazer and dress pants (ties optional), while women will be perfect in a cocktail dress, jumpsuits, or dressy tops and skirts. Our cocktail hour will be held in a semi covered garden area. If you would like to match our color scheme our wedding colors are olive green and earth tones but this is completely option and not expected. Most importantly, we want you to look and feel your best. Please know that your presence on our big day is the absolute greatest gift, and we cannot wait to celebrate with you!
