April 6 To RSVP, click "RSVP" at the top of this page, type in your name, and fill out the information. You can also scan the QR code on your invitation and select "RSVP." The sooner the better, and it only takes a few seconds!
Only if your invitation was also addressed to a "Guest" as well as yourself. Otherwise, we are sadly unable to accommodate plus-ones. Thank you for understanding!
Outfits with blazers, dress pants, dress shirts, blouses, skirts, and dresses are recommended. Please refrain from wearing jeans or athletic wear.
Your love and presence on our wedding day is the best gift we could ask for! However, if you would like to honor us with a gift, we've created a registry that features a honeymoon fund, plus a few items we'd love to have in our home together. Click "Registry" at the top of this page to see our list, or scan the QR code on your invitation and select "Registry."
Gifts can be delivered to Jacklyn's family residence at: 12 Apple Blossom Dr. Lancaster, PA 17602 We will also have a box for cards at the reception. Thank you for your generosity!
Parking is available in the gated lot across the street from the church. It'll be the first parking lot on your right as you're driving down Saint Joseph Street. To view a map, scan the QR code on your invitation and select "Parking."
We recommend arriving at least 20 minutes before the ceremony start time, so no later than 1:10 PM.
We ask that you do not take any pictures during the ceremony. Please silence all devices before entering the church and keep electronics out of sight. Our photographer will handle capturing the moment!
The priest leads the ceremony in a call-and-response fashion. If you are not familiar with the responses, that's okay! First, we will have introductory prayers, readings from the Bible, and a reflection from the priest. Second, the bride and groom will share their vows and exchange rings. Third, the celebration of the Body of Christ will take place, leading up to Holy Communion. We promise it'll be easy to follow the crowd as we sit, stand, and kneel together.
Only baptized Catholics who have received their first Communion, are practicing the faith, and are not aware of having committed any grave sins since their last Confession may receive the Eucharist. If you are not able to receive Communion, please remain in your seat during the procession.
We ask that you hope for us a faithful and fruitful marriage. The quality of our love is very important to us, as it helps us love you even better!
2:30 PM (approximately).
Feel free to socialize outside of the church until 3:30 PM, since the reception venue is around 25 minutes away. You may also head over to Burning Bridge Tavern if you'd like to buy some early drinks!
