FAQs
Question
What time should I arrive to the ceremony?
Answer
Please arrive at the church no later than 15 minutes before the ceremony begins. Since our ceremony will follow the structure of a traditional Catholic Mass, it’s important that guests are seated before the processional starts. This will also give you enough time to park, enter quietly, and find your seat.
Question
What should I know about church etiquette?
Answer
Our ceremony will take place in a Catholic church and will follow the structure of a traditional Mass. We kindly ask that guests arrive early, dress respectfully, and remain seated and quiet throughout the ceremony. There will be moments when the congregation is invited to stand, sit, or kneel, which will be guided by the officiant. Thank you for helping us maintain a reverent and peaceful atmosphere during this sacred celebration.
Question
Can I take photos and videos during the ceremony?
Answer
We kindly ask that you keep phones and cameras put away during the ceremony. Our professional photographer and videographer will be capturing the moment, and we want everyone to be fully present and phone-free in our photos.
Question
Can I take and post pictures of the wedding on social media?
Answer
We would love it if everyone waited until the day after the wedding to share any photos or videos. This allows us and our guests to stay present and truly enjoy the day.
Question
What should I wear?
Answer
We would love to see our family and friends dressed up with us. The dress code is formal, spring-inspired attire. We encourage men to wear suits or dress slacks paired with a button-down shirt. Women are invited to wear longer dresses in soft spring colors such as yellow, green, blue, purple, or similar shades.
Question
Are there any colours guests should avoid wearing?
Answer
Yes. Our bridal party will be wearing pink, so we kindly ask that guests refrain from wearing pink so they can truly stand out. Additionally, we ask that guests avoid wearing white, ivory, cream, or any similar light shades traditionally reserved for the bride. Thank you for helping us maintain the look and feel of our special day!
