Hey Girls - Is there a web site where I can look up popular readings for Catholic wedding ceremonies?? We are not doing a full mass with communion, only the ceremony. If you could refer me to a place where I can find this (other than the Bible I'd appreciate it. Thanks!!

We also got the book and chose Stern as Death is Love - if you google that you should be able to find it, and 1 Corinthians - this one's very popular (love is patient, love is kind, etc.). Good luck!

We also got a book to look through. You should contact someone and see if there is anything they can give you.

Re: Catholic Brides - What readings for ceremony??
Yup, Together for Life is what we got too. I'm using Corinthians from that book for our new testement reading, and one that's not in that book for our old testement; it's the song of Ruth, from the book of Ruth. VERY beautiful! Actually, my Mother suggested it, and it's my favoriate reading. You should check it out. If you google 'Bible Readings from the book of Ruth', you'll find it. It's Ruth 1:16-1:17. Good luck! I'm sure whatever you pick will be beautiful!!

That is odd they didn't give you the Together for Life book. Have you done pre-cana already? What Diocese are you getting married in? Here is a listing of popular readings for weddings:
First Reading(Old Testament) Genesis 1:26-28,31a Genesis 2:18-24 Genesis 24:48-51, 58-67 Tobit 7:9c-10, 11c-14 Tobit 8:5-7 Song of Songs 2:8-10, 14, 16a, 3:6-7a Sirach 26:1-4, 13-16 Jeremiah 31:31-32a, 33-34a
