We can't wait to have you celebrate with us!

Please arrive at St. Gabriel's Catholic Church 30 minutes before the ceremony to allow ample time for parking and getting seated before the procession begins at 3:30 p.m.

What to expect at our wedding ceremony Don’t worry if you’re not a practicing Catholic. Our wedding ceremony is open to people of any faith or no faith. Guests are not expected to do anything difficult. The role of guests at the ceremony is simply to supportively witness the wedding. Our wedding will take place during a Catholic Mass (as is traditional). In any Catholic Mass, there are several points where the congregation prays, sings, or says a creed together. Non-Catholic guests are welcome to participate or not participate at these times. Father Michael will also give guidance throughout the ceremony. Near the end of the Mass, the congregation comes forward to receive Jesus’ body and blood under the appearance of bread and wine (the Eucharist). If you’re not a practicing Catholic, please do not receive the Eucharist. We encourage you to come forward to receive a blessing; please cross your arms over your chest to indicate that you are not receiving the Eucharist. You’re also welcome to simply stay in your seat during this time. How you can take part in our wedding right now? Please pray for us!

We kindly ask that phones and cameras are put away during the wedding ceremony. We have hired professionals to capture our wedding and celebration and want you to join us in prayer during the sacrament of matrimony.

Yes, please! We can't wait to celebrate with everyone on the dance floor!
