Full mass

Full Mass. Simply because there are three and 1/2 hours between the ceremony and the reception and we have a lot of people who are from out of town and unfamiliar with the area. It would blow our budget to arrange something for them during the down time.

Mass...they don't do ceremonies at my church on Friday's. Oh and when I asked if it was a full mass, the priest was like, we don't distinguish between a mass and full mass. Foot in mouth!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A full mass..i feel thats the most important part of the wedding day, so its 15 mins longer.

This is my feeling...not that I think people are bad for wanting or having a ceremony...this is just my preference

Just the ceremony. I honestly don't think I could stand there that long for a full mass... I'd be too excited.

Well it is only 10-15 mins more at the most. It's not bad if you dont want a full mass, I just feel that this is what marriage really is..not the party afterwords

We are having a friday night wedding, so we are doing a ceremony only. If it were a sat or sun, I think we'd have a full mass.

We're only doing a ceremony. My family and I aren't Catholic and FI and I aren't very religious.
