Question
What time does the ceremony start?

Mass will begin promptly at 2:00 PM, and we encourage you to arrive at least 15 minutes early to find your seat and settle in quietly. Your presence and reverence mean so much to us on this special day.
Question
What is a Catholic wedding Mass like?
Answer
Our wedding will take place during a full Catholic Mass, which typically lasts about one hour. It includes prayers, readings, a homily (short sermon), the exchange of vows, and the celebration of the Eucharist (Communion). In the Catholic Church, Holy Communion is reserved for practicing Catholics. If you are not Catholic or do not wish to receive, you’re welcome to remain seated or come forward with arms crossed over your chest for a blessing.
Question
Do I need to be Catholic to attend?
Answer
Not at all! All are warmly welcome. We just ask that everyone respect the sacred nature of the service, regardless of religious background.
Question
Can we talk or greet the couple before the ceremony?
Answer
We ask that guests enter quietly and formally greet us after the ceremony at the reception. Quiet conversations and quick waves to greet others are absolutely acceptable, but please remember that others may use the time before the ceremony to pray.
Question
Are photos or videos allowed during the ceremony?
Answer
We kindly ask guests to refrain from taking photos or videos during the Mass to respect the reverent environment. Our photographer will capture everything beautifully — thank you for being fully present with us.
Question
Is there a dress code?
Answer
Our dress code is Formal or Black Tie Optional. We ask that you wear a tuxedo or dark suit and tie. Alternatively, an evening gown or a midi- or tea-length dress would be appropriate. Our bridal party will be wearing shades of green. During the ceremony, we ask that guests are mindful of modesty in the church setting. If you’re unsure, feel free to reach out to us!
Question
Can I bring a guest?
Answer
Please refer to your invitation to see if a guest is included. Due to limited seating and headcounts, we ask that only those named on the invitation attend.
Question
Are kids welcome?
Answer
We believe that weddings are a celebration for everyone. If you do choose to bring children, please remind them to be respectful and reverent during the ceremony mass. Please also note that there will be an open bar and music at the reception may be for mature ears.
