Re: Catholic Bride Question

We are having a full mass.

Not to be rude, but this is YOUR day, not your friends, your decision shouldn't be made b/c you don't want your friends to have to sit through it. JMHO

Re: Catholic Bride Question

I am just doing the ceremony. I have been to weddings that are full masses and I think it takes away from the ceremony. I also don't want my guests to have to sit there for a whole mass. But like everyone else said it is your day and you do what works best for you and FH. Good luck. Either choice will be a great one.

Re: Catholic Bride Question

We're doing the full mass. I think its nice and it also gives us the opportunity to involve some important people in our ceremony. (doing the readings and presenting the gifts)

Re: Catholic Bride Question

We're doing the full mass as well. Mostly because of my mom. She suggested it.

Re: Catholic Bride Question

Definitely a full mass! You only get married once!

It's also a great way to include more people to do readings and whatnot!!!

Re: Catholic Bride Question

we're having a full mass and i'm not happy about it.

FH's parents insisted on it. i never go to church and am kind of anti-catholic at this point, so i'm not looking forward to it

Re: Catholic Bride Question

I am having a full mass since we are both Catholic and FI's friend just became an ordained Priest last May. It is OUR day, no one else. If anyone has a problem with it, the open bar should take care of it at the reception anyway.

Re: Catholic Bride Question

I'm getting married on a Sunday and I dont think I can do a full mass. But I know a lot of people that have done a full mass.
It's your day so do whatever is going to make you the happiest.
