Re: catholic church ceremony
They give a book that has an outline of the ceremony and all the prayers. YOu basically fill in the blanks. The priest follows the outline. WE got the book when we first went to book the church. Then i didn't see the priest again until 2 weeks before! It all worked fine and the ceremony was beautiful.

Re: catholic church ceremony
Some random questions that could be helpful are:
-Can they arrange the Atlar Servers -Restrictions on decorations (No Scotch Tape/Tacs, No rose petals, no rice/bird seed throwing outside) -All church fees (including organist, vocalists) -2 readings - can you also have someone read the prayer of the faithful (some churches only allow priests to read them) -How many people will they allow to bring up the gifts -Is there a wedding before/after yours -Set up Pre Cana -Set up Rehearsal date/time

I agree. Also, don't worry about sounding like an idiot, because its new to all Brides.
If you are taking Pre Cana, they will give you a booklet "TOGETHER FOR LIFE" that will help you choose readings and gives you the order of the Mass - its all in there
Here is my outline
ENTRANCE RITE Processional Attendants’ Processional [name of song] Bride’s Processional [name of song]
GREETING & OPENING PRAYER
LITURGY OF THE WORD
First Reading [name of who will be doing this] [name of reading] [book name and numbers]
Responsorial Psalm [name of who will be doing this - most likely the organist/singer] [name of reading]
Sorry I don't have a picture [book name and numbers]
Second Reading [name of who will be doing this] [name of reading] [book name and numbers]
Gospel Acclamation and Verse [name of who will be doing this - most likely the organist/singer] [name of verse]
Gospel [Priest's name] [name of reading] [book name and numbers]
Homily [Priest's name]
RITE OF MATRIMONY
Exchange of Vows
Blessing and Exchange of Rings
Lighting of the Unity Candle Hymn - [name of Hymn]
Presentation to the Blessed Mother Hymn - [name of Hymn]
Prayer of the Faithful [name of who will be doing this]
LITURGY OF THE EUCHARIST

The hosts and wine.
Are you having a Mass? If you not, you won't have this part in the Ceremony.

Re: catholic church ceremony
You should receive a book with guidelines at PreCana.
