Some parishes require one member of the couple to be a registered member.  \n• Meet with the pastor or deacon to select a wedding date and time, and discuss the parish requirements for a wedding celebration. Many parishes have wardrobe restrictions, including requiring the bride to cover her shoulders during the wedding.  \n• Choose one of three Rites of Marriage to celebrate: Wedding  \ncelebration within a Mass for two Catholics; celebration without Mass, structured around the Liturgy of the Word when a Catholic marries a baptized Christian; and celebration without Mass when a Catholic marries anon-Christian.  \nNine months prior to the wedding  \n• Select readings (traditionally, one from the Old Testament, one from the New Testament and one from the Gospels) and Prayers of the Faithful from the approved texts.  \n\n| | | |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Notre Dame Weddings\u003Cbr>The University of Notre Dame offers a beautiful setting perfectly suited to celebrate your wedding any time of year.

Costs vary between regions but [according to www.costofwedding.com](according to www.costofwedding.com) “the majority of couples typically spend between $18,900 and $31,500 on weddings in the U.S.  \nFrom the wedding dress to the reception decorations and entertainment, wedding costs can add up quickly. But a little research and careful planning can help keep costs to a minimum.  \nAccording to the USCCB sponsored website www. [foryourmarriage.org](foryourmarriage.org), the U.S. bishops have not specifically addressed the issue of spending, but put forth a few questions for couples to answer to keep costs in perspective. Answer the following questions to shape a personal view of what is truly important in a wedding celebration.  \n• What do you want the wedding to say about you and your values?  \n• Are you willing to go into debt, or put family members in debt, because of this wedding?  \n• Are you willing to focus time and energy on the details of a lavish wedding? Will this reduce the attention you can pay to preparing for the marriage itself?  \n• Do you feel comfortable with the amount you planto spend? Have you considered this in relation to the needs of people in your community?  \n• Select family members or friends in good standing with the Church, who will be lectors, extraordinary ministers of Holy Communion, and those who will carry the offertory gifts if Mass will be celebrated.  \n• Meet with parish music director to select sacred music that will be used at the Mass or ceremony.  \n• Select the bridal party, who will not only be attendants but witnesses of the marriage rite as well. Traditionally, the Church prefers the maid of honor and best man to be Catholic.  \n• Discuss da","cbCaikcHPCp6xvSx","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaikcHPCp6xvSx","pdf",6026092,"English","# Twelve months prior to the wedding\n# Nine months prior to the wedding\n# Budget guidance\n# Six months prior to the wedding\n# Three months prior to the wedding\n# Two months prior to the wedding\n# Three to four weeks prior to the wedding\n# One to two weeks prior to the wedding\n# Day before the wedding\n# Praying and final preparation","[{\"question\":\"What are the main steps to take twelve months before a Catholic wedding?\",\"answer\":\"Select a church and meet the pastor or deacon to choose the wedding date and time while reviewing parish requirements.
