Planning your wedding liturgy

Marriage Liturgy Outline

Please choose the readings for your wedding and let us know who will proclaim them. Take your time — prayerfully choosing the Word of God for your wedding day is a beautiful way to prepare.

Before you begin

Choosing your readers

Ideally, your readers would be people who regularly read at Holy Mass — they will know what to do and will do a great job. At a minimum, we ask that they be regular, practising Catholics. Thank you for respecting this requirement.

Ideally, readers come to the rehearsal to practise the readings. If they can’t, please ask them to come early on the wedding day to find the priest and go over the readings and petitions.

If you haven’t done so already
