Since the ceremony will take place in a Catholic Church, this a note on dress from the Pastor:

From our Pastor

DRESS CODE AT MATER

The respect and adherence to the dress code at Mater Misericordiæ Parish is essential and required for all attending our Solemn Celebration of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.

Appropriate dress attire can either foster or hurt the sacredness of the sanctuary and the reverence and respect, out of love, due to God. You are dressing for God. In addition, modest attire is charity for neighbor and for oneself.

Clothes therefore are asked to be modest and clean according to one’s means for both men and women. Sunday best clothing is not expected but encouraged during weekdays. Exceptions can be made prudentially due to work or other personal obligations, however the following must always be followed

Please do not take it upon yourself to ensure others are following the dress code. The priests and parish staff will make sure proper communication is made when needed.
