Big Time Clocks Manual. Free Catholic Wedding Program Template Posted October 30, 2012 by I've realized that having a full Catholic mass for our wedding might leave a few of our guests confused about what to do and when to do it. If you've ever been to a Catholic mass (or probably any church), there is a lot of sitting, standing, kneeling, responding, etc. I didn't want people to feel lost!

I found a woman online who put together a really helpful program that she offered for download and then I just went through and edited it for our purposes (you can download my Free Catholic Wedding Program Template.) Please note: the first page is a “cover” page. I suggest using a heavier for the cover. Pages 2+3 should be printed as a double sided page so that when you fold it, it functions as a booklet. Free Catholic Wedding Program Template We decided to print the programs ourselves and will just do a piece of for the cover (which we bought for our invitations) and then a plain piece of on the inside. We'll probably attach it all with thin black ribbon. I'm pretty happy with the way they came out and hope they will make our non-Catholic guests more at ease.

The front says: The nuptial mass celebrating the union of me and Nick in the sacrament of Holy Matrimony. Saturday the twenty seventh day of October Two Thousand and Twelve and then our church name and location. Image via me The first page lists the wedding party, parents, ushers, and celebrants as well as their relation to each of us. Image via me The inside pages outline the ceremony order. In parentheses it says when to sit/stand and also says how to respond if necessary (for the readings, gospel, prayers of the faithful, etc.).

When she's not marrying awesome couples to each other in Central Park, find her either running, zumba-ing, or redesigning board games. She loves working with APW couples and would be thrilled to hear from you for questions and inquiries alike. From my experience, many couples are identifying themselves as “Spiritual,” but really are Religious by default. If they go to church with any regularity, they are Religious. A Secular Ceremony would most likely not mention God at all, and nothing about Jesus. A Spiritual Ceremony would somewhat acknowledge a higher force and/or the divine intelligence that informs all living and non-living.

“The Universe” brought them together as a couple, for instance. Unity consciousness is Spiritual (all is one). References to Old Testament Wrathful God, Jesus, Allah, Mohammed all go under the rubric of a Religious Ceremony.

Pagan, Druidic, Wiccan “religions”would nonetheless tend more toward Spiritual than Religious as these see SPIRIT in everything and every act. Also, Spiritual and Secular Ceremonies can be mutually exclusive. Some people want no mention of anything that cannot be scientifically proven using five senses — that’s a Secular Ceremony.
