Program Outlines

Program Outline

This is the typical outline for a Catholic wedding (Both mass and Liturgy of the Word) in the Latin (Roman) Rite.  Occasionally, a deacon or priest might change the placement of unity candle, marian devotion, or Nuptial Blessing, etc, so check with them before printing programs.

The Bolded parts are the most basic outline. The non-bolded parts are extra detail if desired.
