The wording loks fine to me. I have a question for you...I am getting married at St.Anthony's also and was wondering if you know if we have to cover our shoulders in church. I know of some churches that are strict about it. Thanks!

I don't know about that church, but when I asked my priest about it at my church he stated that that was between me and God if I wanted to cover my shoulders or not. I didn't cover them in the end.

Instead of writing the time as 'three thirty,' for example, how about 'half past three'? I think it sounds more elegant that way. Otherwise, looks great!

Thanks everyone! I really appreciate your help

BTW, I don't think we have to cover our shoulders at Saint Anthony's. I'm pretty sure I asked and he said no.....
