Who
To Contact
Cathedral Wedding Coordinator
(916) 444-3071
Couples need to contact the parish
office six (6) months before the planned wedding. After couples schedule
their wedding date, they need to meet with the wedding coordinator
for initial
paperwork and to receive a booklet
that
assists them
in choosing readings and planning the ceremony. After that, a time
can be scheduled to meet with a priest or deacon.
Ceremony Times
There
are three time-slots on Saturdays for weddings:
- 11:30 a.m.
- 2:00 p.m.
- 6:30 p.m.
Weddings can also take place on Friday afternoon
or evening, at a time
of
the couples’ choosing.
Marriage Preparation Classes
Couples are required to complete a marriage preparation
course. Three programs are approved by the Diocese of Sacramento.
Couples must attend one of the three:
Engaged Couples Weekend
Retreat
A low-key
weekend specifically designed to give the couples planning marriage
an opportunity to dialogue honestly about
their lives
together; their strengths, weaknesses, desires, ambitions,
goals; their attitude about money, sex, children, family;
their role
in the Church and society.

Evening for the Engaged is a six-week program. Every week is

Pre-Cana Marriage Preparation
Conference
Pre-Cana Marriage Preparation Conference is for engaged couples
planning to be married in the Catholic Church and who are referred
by the priest/deacon

coordinator.
A
full day is created which will enable you to have an opportunity
to discuss honestly with each other your strengths and
growing edges — family living, communication, finances,
Christian sexuality, the Sacrament of Matrimony and your role
in the
Church and society.
