What should I visit in San Francisco?

There is so much to do! The Pier and Fisherman's Wharf, St. Dominic's, and the Presidio are Mary's favorites. But the Conservatory of Flowers, Golden Gate Bridge, and Ghiradelli Square are all wonderful options as well.

What kind of a wedding is it?

Our wedding Mass will be a High Solemn Latin Mass. The older usage of the Mass follows the forms celebrated by the Church (nearly unchanged) through the Middle Ages until 1962. As a sign of the universal nature of the Church and of the eternal nature of Christ's sacrifice in the Mass, the older rite is said in Latin, the official language of the Church. The Latin Mass also contains longer periods of sacred silence than the ordinary form. We will provide booklets containing the prayers of the Mass so everyone can follow along!
