I did not have much luck trying to contact the priest directly. My first WC gave me the church's contact info and I was able to get a response from him, then it was holy week and he basically fell off the map. But as soon as my on-site coordinator stepped in she has been the liason between me and the priest. He approved all our readings and set up a meeting time. Actually our meeting time is in the chapel right after a wedding. So if anyone here is getting married May 25 at 4pm I promise to hang out and wait from afar

 

I was working on the program and she also sent me this to help:

 

PROCESSION IN.

(Priest walk in first in both processions; in and out). Mothers walk in and light Unity Candle, Bridesmaids and Grooms man walk in. (Song or music, optional).

Bride and Father enter, (Song or music, optional).

Greeting by Priest.

INTRODUCTORY RITES:

Penitential rite (I confess...)

Opening Prayer

LITURGY OF THE WORD:

(1st Reading, Responsorial Psalm, 2nd Reading and Alleluia verse) 3 voluntaries for the readings.

Gospel reading and homily (both are done by the priest)

RITE OF THE SACRAMENT OF MARRIAGE:

Introduction, Questions of intention, Consent of Vows, blessing and exchange of rings, lighting of Unity Candle.

LITURGY OF THE EUCARIST:

(Preparation of the altar and the gifts (collection) 2 voluntaries for the baskets. (Song or music, optional).

Prayer over the gifts.

Eucharistic prayer: Preface, Acclamation, Eucharistic prayer (Consecration)

COMMUNION RITE:

Lord´s Prayer (Our Father), Nuptial blessing.

Sign of peace, (Song or music, optional).

I am finding it difficult as well. Wishing there were some pictures to see what the dish looks like. Any brides that can help with this would be much appreciated !! Thank you !

Im having the same problem with the dinner options! I did email Elsa, and you are able to pick to entrees as long as you give them 45 days notice and you are responsible for putting the food options at the correct seat. I was thinking chicken for one dish and some sorta of seafood/steak option for the second. Thats about as far as i got.

SOrry its Monday morning .....lol...i meant tooooooo use TWO dinner options
