Help - looking for Catholic nuptial mass program template

Hi! I'm trying to locate a Catholic mass program template, that contains the Liturgy of the Word events, as well as wedding party information.

Does anyone have anything they can share with me? Looking for Word 2003 or earlier version.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Jean

This was mine.... and i posted this awhile back.

DOES THIS HELP? Let me know.... I know the Mass inside and out, so let me know if I can clarify you. Clearly, you will add the musical pieces you want, i just left mine in there for an example.

______________________________________

PLease note that below is the liturgically correct order of the Nuptial Mass. My priest told me it was the most accurate and best wedding program he has seen.

Also, please note that the Presentation of the Blessed Mother is optional or can also be done after the Unity Candle using the same musical selection for both. (The unity candle is also optional.) Check with your priest if you want to do either of these 'traditions' as they are not part of a Mass.

Also, I also included the translation of Ubi Caritas and Salve Regina on my original program...They were two pieces that were sung in Latin at the Mass and whose meaning was so special that I wanted to include the translations.

Anything in quotes (' ') were the titles of the songs/instrumental pieces.

PLease FM or post again if you have any further questions.
