Hi Ladies! Did any of you have issues with the ceremony coordinator or priests putting rules on things you just didn't understand?
Background info: the priest marrying us is my uncle so I've been to a ton of weddings he has done for my cousins and i'm really excited. I talked to the ceremony coordinator and all of a sudden there were all these rules that had nothing to do with the actual ceremony part that I didn't understand. My uncle is out of town until 2 weekends from now so I am going to talk to him but in the meantime maybe you guys can provide me with some insight.
No one is allowed to walk down the aisle alone - I wanted the GM to be at the alter with my FI and have them meet the BM's half way up the aisle. I have an uneven number and don't like the look of doubling up. Obviously this isn't a big deal I just don't get it.
She told me I can only pick readings out of the book she gave us...but it doesn't even include some of the most popular readings (i.e 1 Corintians 13:4 love is patient, love is kind is not in there) I wanted to look through the bible and see what readings really reflected my FI and I.
There were some other little petty things that were more the church rules that didn't have to do with the actual ceremony.
So did any of you run into similar issues? or are these rules for the Catholic ceremony? Thanks!
