Catholic wedding question

Does anyone know how long a full mass lasts?

Close to an hour......

Depending on how many readings you have and how talkative your priest is....LOL

So, about how long would a mass and ceremony take in total???

Re: Catholic wedding question

It's an hour for the ceremony and mass together...

Ceremony alone is usually about 1/2 an hour

Thanks--I was debating how long it was gonna be. I didn't want everyone to be sitting there for a really long time...and I want to get pictures done and make it to CH

Our church is at 3pm, full mass, and we are hoping to be done and at our RH by 4:30.

then we plan on taking pic's from 4:30-6:30...
I hope 2 hours is enough time for pics b/c we want to make our cocktail hour

That's my timeline too and my photographer said that it was plenty of time for everything.

I would block out an hour. Its pretty much like a mass.

usually an hour - it depends on how many readings you do, how long the homily is, etc.
