Or any other St. Anthony of Padua girls...

Do you know if we need to 'donate' our altar arrangements to the church, or if we can bring them with us to the reception hall? My sister got married there in 2002 and had to donate, but I'm REALLY hoping that isn't the case anymore. Do you girls know?

THANKS!!

I'm not 100% sure, but I think in the paperwork we got from Father Grieco it actually says you have to take the floral arrangements (at least for me because I'm a Friday) because they may actually have a funeral later on/early the next day. I'll have to check the documents later on, though I'm sure you got the same stuff.

I was planning on taking them. I'm using Flowers by Brian and they told me that most girls take the arrangements and use them elsewhere at their RH, unless you have a full mass where you're 'supposed to' donate a floral arrangement to the blessed mother.

HTH!

THANK YOU!!!

I'm going to go through my paperwork and check. I REALLY want to keep mine and my possible florist said that she'd hangout at the ceremony and grab them after the mass and take them with her to the reception for dias decor.
