Nuptial Mass

A Nuptial Mass is a Catholic wedding ceremony that combines the marriage vows with the celebration of the Eucharist (Holy Communion). It takes place within a church service where the couple publicly affirms their commitment to each other before God and the community. The Mass includes prayers, readings from the Bible, and the exchange of rings, culminating in the couple receiving Holy Communion. This type of wedding emphasizes both the spiritual significance of the marriage covenant and the participation in the wider community of faith. It’s a meaningful ritual that unites love, faith, and sacred tradition.
