Question

This is my first time attending a Catholic Mass. Is there anything I need to know?

Answer

If you are not a Catholic in communion with the Church, please refrain from participating in receiving the Eucharist by remaining in your pew during Communion or indicating once you reach the altar to the Priest that you would like to receive a blessing by placing your arms crossed over your chest with your hands resting on your opposite shoulders. You will be able to follow the proceedings of the mass by reading along in the worship aide which will be provided as you enter the church. Please note, in a Catholic Mass there are several instances of standing and kneeling. If you are uncomfortable or unable, it is okay to remain seated.

Question

When do I need to RSVP?

Answer

Please RSVP no later than October 1st.

Question

Will the ceremony and reception be taking place outside or indoors?

Answer

The ceremony will take place indoors. Cocktail hour and the reception will take place outdoors. The reception space has loose gravel, so you may want to rethink stilettos.

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Semi-formal or cocktail attire is preferred. It will get cold when the sun goes down, so don't forget your coat!

Question

Can I bring a plus one?

Answer
