Marriage is the unique Sacrament which binds one man and one woman together in a covenant under God and His Church. It is a Sacrament of vocation, a response to a specific calling that God has placed in the hearts of a couple. It is a bond that lasts for life which is permanent, faithful, and fruitful. Marriage is not just about two people, but is the foundation of the family, the "domestic church," the most basic and foundational structure, not only for the Church, but for all of society.
Marriage arrangements are usually made six months in advance of the wedding. These arrangements are made by scheduling an appointment with one of our priests. The preparation process includes: meeting with one of our parish priests throughout the six month preparation process, as well as our parish music director to plan music for your sacrament. Couples are encouraged to actively participate in the planning of their own wedding liturgy.
After you meet with one of our parish priests and schedule your wedding date, you can contact our Director of Music and Liturgy to assist you in planning the music for your wedding. We also provide an accompanist (piano/organ) and a cantor to sing the song selections.
