Catholic Brides

Quick question for Catholic Brides- does anyone know if the church allows you to have a full mass for weddings on a sunday? We havent settled on a church yet- so I havent been able to ask- anyone know?

TIA

It depends upon the parish you are using. I am having a Sunday wedding and they wont do a full mass because of time constraints with regular masses on Sunday. Our ceremony is at St. Joseph's in Kings Park. It's bothering my mom more than me. My future husband isn't catholic so I didnt want us to be united in marriage and then divided when it came to receiving communion.

It might depend on the church. I know my church said it was out of the question entirely. Other places might let you have it after all the morning masses are finished. I would try to call the churches and see what they allow. Hope this helps!

Like other brides, I will have to say that it depends on the church. Some churches won't do it due to time constraints, but others will do it so that it actually combines with a mass.

The church also has to get a special dispensation (permission) from the Cardinal (I think) in order for you to have the mass on a Sunday. A lot of churches will not allow it because of morning masses, but if you know your pastor well he may be willing to go the extra mile for you to have an afternoon mass. I have been to one Sunday wedding mass, but I think they are rare.

Hmmm... I'm not sure, I don't know if you were interested in St. Rose of Lima in Massapequa, I could ask my parish for you if you wanted to know?
