♥ ♥ June 16, 2012 ♥ ♥
We had our first meeting with the priest who will marry us. I literally wanted to cry while I was in there, I couldn't believe that it was actually happening. My fiance was super nervous because he's not Catholic so he didn't know what to expect, and well, neither did I. It wasn't as bad as I thought, basically all it was was paper work, and he separated us, asked us a few simple questions, and that was basically it. He gave us a little pamphlet with readings and the gospel we can choose from. My favorite part of the whole session was that he had a little "pep" talk. He told us that this is our day, no body else's. That everyone is going to have their own advice and just smile and say, "Thank you." That we don't have to take any one's advice, that it's our day. That we shouldn't let the wedding planning ruin our relationship. He even gave out his personal e-mail, and his personal cell phone number (Not sure if priests normally do this) to contact him if we're having a hard time with the wedding planning. haha. He said he basically wanted to help with anything he can.
We also need to schedule an appointment for the "marriage classes", and also for an organist and a singer. But all of this makes me excited because atleast I'm finally doing it! :D Anyway, I wanted to share this exciting news, and also the outfit I wore to meet the priest. I wanted to keep it nice and clean and appropriate, of course.
The pamphlet to choose our readings and Gospel from.
Congratulations! Sounds exciting. Be sure to enjoy this... I know so many friends who choose to stress over all the wedding planning, only to regret not having fun during this time.
