I was wondering if - when you got yourselves on the parish calendar - you got some kind of written confirmation from the Church. I know it wouldn't be a contract per say, but having only gotten "Yep, you're on the calendar!" on the phone and nothing concrete in my hands to be filed is making my Type-A personality self totally nervous!
The fear that we're going to find out we're *not* on the calendar is amplified by the fact that we aren't doing pre-cana, etc in the parish. FI and I have had a close relationship with our Catholic Campus Ministry priest since freshman year of undergrad (we're finishing our MAs this year!) and he's doing our ceremony in FI's home parish, with permission from the parish. He's also doing our pre-cana, so the paper trail with the parish doesn't exist yet.
Just getting nervous! Did you girls get some kind of written paperwork confirming your wedding mass, the date/time? Would it be rude of me to inquire about it (especially since it's not my parish, FI and I often go together to our CCM priest's parish and his family doesn't go to mass regular .. we don't *know* the priests there well).
