FAQs

Question

Is there a dress code?

Answer

Yes! We're asking guests to "Dress to Impress!" This is the moment for that "extra" piece you've had for ages. Suits and ties for gentlemen, formal dresses, sleek jumpsuits, or tailored separates for the ladies. Jewel tones, satin, velvet, and lace are all very welcome.

Question

I'm not Catholic. What can I expect at your Nuptial Mass?

Answer

We’re so glad you’ll be joining us for our Nuptial Mass, a sacred Catholic ceremony that unites us in marriage before God. If you’re not familiar with the Catholic Mass, here’s a brief guide to help you feel at ease. The Nuptial Mass is a beautiful, structured liturgy that includes prayers, readings from Scripture, a homily (a short reflection by the priest), and the exchange of our marriage vows. You’ll also experience the Eucharist, where Catholics receive Communion, a sacred moment where we receive the body of Christ. As a non-Catholic, you’re welcome to remain seated during this part or come forward with arms crossed over your chest to receive a blessing from the priest. The service typically lasts about an hour and includes moments of song, prayer, and quiet reflection. You’re invited to participate as you feel comfortable—whether by joining in hymns, following along with the readings, or simply observing. We’ll provide a program to guide you through the order of the Mass. To maintain the sacred atmosphere and ensure everyone can fully experience the moment, we kindly ask that you refrain from taking photos or videos during the ceremony. Our professional photographer will capture the day, and we’ll share those memories with you afterward. Above all, the Nuptial Mass is a joyful celebration of love, faith, and community. We’re honored to share this moment with you and encourage you to approach it with an open heart. If you have any questions before or during the ceremony, don’t hesitate to ask a member of our wedding party. Thank you for being part of our special day!
