church times

Many Catholic churches won't because most have a mass around 5pm on Saturday.

We're getting married at 4:30, but my church (St. Thomas in West Hempstead) has a main church and a chapel. I wanted to be in the main church so badly, but the latest ceremony they can do it 3pm. Our CH starts at 7pm (and we're not having a mass). That would just be too long for our guests to wait around - and I figured many wouldn't come to the church then.

So, we are having it in the chapel...

most probably wont do a start later than 330 because they do the sunday mass at dusk usually at 500 but good luck i hope u can find something...im doing a 3p start and my ch starts at 7. fh's brother and sil did the same and allot of people did go to the church and went to the ch as well

Church of the Ascension in Elmhurst would probably do it.

We were looking for that...I am catholic and my FH is Lutheran. We booked our reception for 7:00 p.m. on a saturday. The latest ceremony we got at a catholic church was 3:00 p.m. Some catholic churches wouldn't even go that late. That's because they have mass at 5 on sat, and usually confession before mass.

We looked into my FH's lutheran church and I think it was a little more flexible because they do mass at 7 p.m., but it is a tiny church. Any questions write back....

you'll be kucky if you can find a catholic church that will do anything after 3:30 PM... 3:30 is usually the latest they will do and if you do this time, it's usually a ceremony and not a Mass....

Most Catholic churches have a 5:00 PM Mass and Confession before-hand... hence no weddings after 3-3:30....

Some large parishes have chapels where their schedule might be a little different.... St. Agnes in RVC has a grogeous chapel (very small though) and St. Catherine's in Franklin Square has one too--- again though, often times you MUST be a parishoner (or the immediate family) to use a church.

thanks for your answers i will look into some of the places you mentioned
