That stuff was set up by my Deacon as he waited for my DH, the guys, his family and the priest to arrive on time.

I had the Best Man bring our programs, bells unity candle and copies of the readings the day of the wedding to the church. Once they were brought there we had a 'wedding host' set them up for me once we got there it was all put together.

Good question, I hadn't even thought about that. I guess I should ask at our last pre-cana session this Sunday.

We brought all our unity candles the night before to the rehearsal dinner. Someone set it up for us?? My florist put the bows on the pews and set up the altar pieces. My stepmother arranged the programs and made sure the guys handed them out.

Our church has someone who set up the candles. Our florist set up all the flowers and pew bows and we designated my Aunt to be there early and handle the programs, Usher flowers and everything else.

Thank you everyone! I'll ask my priest, but I think I'll go to the church when I come back from getting my hair done and make sure everything is in its place. The church is across the street from where I live, so I'll have time. I think I'll need those few moments alone and talkto GOD while I set things up,before I go back to WEDDING MAD HOUSE!!!! ahaahha
