You've decided to have a Wedding Mass in a Catholic church but unsure of what wedding liturgy and marriage rites are performed in one?
We got you!
We will provide you a template for a Missalette and work closely with you and the priest celebrating your wedding to select readings, songs and more.
You can then print these missalettes and they'll be the little booklets that guide you and your guests during the ceremony. It'll allow everyone to participate in the occasion and help them to follow what's happening.
Credits to @daintyevents.chch for this template I've been using for years!

Love seeing culture, faith and tradition still being incorporated in modern weddings.
'Mano' or pressing your forehead on the back of a an elder's hand, is a common gesture amongst Filipinos, performed as a sign of respect towards elders and as a way of accepting a blessing from the elder. This is also done throughout the wedding ceremony to honour the parents.

Whenever we get told the Ring Bearer or the Flower Girl is younger than three, we do a full game plan on how we can best make things go smoothly.
We practice with them. We don't put real rings on the pillows. We find out who their favourite person is in the ceremony - parent/sibling/uncle/aunt to keep them company. Can they be bribed with lollies? Do we give them a mission? Do we put their favourite stuff toy or parent at the end of the aisle?
But when the time comes, it's still gonna be entirely up to the child. Are they gonna bolt out the front door? Are they gonna burst into tears and start screaming? Or are they gonna be too precious for words?
Whatever they choose to do on the day, we let kids be kids and go with the flow. Flower Girls and Ringbearers are such a sweet way to incorporate young children into your wedding.
Here's little Bella charming her way in. Thanks to her mum for letting us share this precious wee video.
