The wedding rehearsal is a brief, guided walk-through of the Mass and ceremony with the priest, wedding party, and any readers or musicians. During this time, we’ll: Practice the processional (entrance of the bride, groom, and wedding party) Review the Liturgy of the Word and any readings Confirm the placement of gifts, altar servers, and music cues Go over the recessional (exit of the couple and wedding party) This rehearsal helps everyone feel comfortable with their roles and ensures the Mass flows smoothly. It’s a quiet, focused time to prepare spiritually and practically for our sacred celebration of marriage. Following the rehearsal, we’ll gather for the rehearsal dinner, a casual, joyful evening to share a meal, offer blessings, and enjoy each other’s company before the wedding day.
