Question

I've never been to a Catholic Church-- What do I need to know?

Answer

We warmly welcome everyone- regardless of background or belief - to participate in our wedding ceremony. Some pro tips: 1. There will be several readings from the bible, multiple prayers, and singing. 2. If this is your first Catholic Mass, a good rule of thumb is if the priest or others are standing, you should stand if you're able, and vice-versa. 3. Non-Catholic guests are encouraged to participate in all elements of the Mass (with one exception). During Communion, we kindly ask that you remain seated or come forward for a blessing by crossing your arms over your chest. Duration: About one hour Seating: Traditionally, the bride's family sits on the left and the groom's on the right.
