Our wedding will take place during a Catholic mass, as is tradition. In any Catholic Mass, there are several points where the congregation prays together in various forms (psalms, hymns, creeds, etc.). Non-Catholic guests are welcome to participate or not participate at these times. Near the end of the Mass, the congregation comes forward to receive Jesus’ body and blood under the appearance of bread and wine (the Eucharist). This is not only a sacred tradition for Catholics, but this transubstantiation is the nucleus of our faith and religion. If you are not a practicing Catholic, please do not receive the Eucharist. We encourage you to come forward to receive a blessing instead. Please cross your arms over your chest to indicate that you are not receiving the Eucharist. You’re also welcome to simply stay in your seat during this time as well.
