Question

What is a "crowning ceremony"?

Answer

The crowning ceremony is the heart of our Coptic Orthodox wedding sacrament. It's a beautiful and deeply symbolic service where we are united as one in Christ through the blessing of our beloved priests. During this sacred rite, crowns are placed upon our heads, symbolizing our spiritual kingship and queenship over our new household, a heavenly blessing, and our commitment to each other and to God. It's a profound moment of prayer and spiritual union, marking the beginning of our life together

Question

Is this an open invitation?

Answer

Yes, absolutely! We've extended an open invitation to our beloved friends and family to witness our crowning ceremony. We are simply thrilled to share this special moment with everyone we love.

Question

Will there be a reception after the ceremony?

Answer

Kero and I have decided that our day will be fully dedicated to the blessing of prayers and the sacred moments of our crowning ceremony in church. There will be no reception following. Your presence during this holy sacrament is our absolute greatest gift!

Question

What time should I arrive?

They're a special part of the beautiful atmosphere we're creating, so we'd be incredibly grateful if little hands could admire them with just their eyes, keeping them perfect for everyone to enjoy throughout the celebration.
