Good evening, friends!
My fiancee and I want to include Latin in our ceremony. Probably including "Dominus vobiscum/Et cum spiritu tuo" instead of "The Lord be with you/And with your spirit", as well as the Consecration.
Did any of you, or are you planning to, have Latin in your ceremony? How do you recommend having the congregation make the Latin responses correctly? For that matter, since many of our guests might not necessarily be weekly Mass people, how do you encourage people to make the English responses correctly?
My idea was to have the cantor make a brief instruction before the ceremony on how to say "Et cum spiritu tuo". If we do this, should we do it before any of the interlude music starts?
I would love any comments on the use of Latin in the Liturgy. Thank you!
