Hi minssy,
If you have the Church Service,there's just blessings and no communion. In Mass, you will have the communion.
My Mass book was designed and printed out by me and so it was free. I printed out about 85 copies and had about 175 guests in Church. Need not print too many as your guests will share. The contents of my Mass book in a diskette is currently loaned out to friends who are brides to be. So can't share at the moment.

Hi little_ger, I don't mean to contradict you, but I understand that if the wedding day falls on a Sunday, only a service will be conducted. On any other day, the choice of mass or service is left up to the couple.
St Mary's has got a pretty comprehensive set of guidelines set out in their website - do take a look at http://www.catholic.org.sg/SMOTA/?Directory:Marriage
minssy, the chapel can seat quite a lot of people - most wedding masses don't have very many guests anyway, so a small chapel makes the attendance look quite good!

Hi little_ger
I wanted to have my wedding at OLPS but it was under reno then so we couldn't. It's great that you can use the projector - can save some money and lots of trees! Do you need a soft copy of the mass booklet too - or will the church give you a soft copy in presentation slides?
Hi minssy
You've got mail! Btw, does Holy Trinity allow the use of the dining hall for wedding reception? During my time, the parish priest was very strict, didn't allow couples to hold reception - so had to re-direct the guests back to my mum's place for makan - very troublesome! Hope the new priest there is not so strict anymore!
Cheers,
Annelise

Hi gals
Can I know whether u hired any printer for your mass booklets and church invitation cards? I'll be having my wedding at St Anthony's and the secretariat introduced a printer to us (AlJo - heard of them?). they are a very young couple (hubby & wife, Alvin & Jo) and my guess is tat they are just starting out in this biz. my FH and me liked them very much upon meeting up n were willing to give them our biz even though they are obviously inexperienced coz they seem very eager and keen.
however after that 1st meeting, I have been having problems getting hold of them, eg I called them for 2 whole days n they claimed their hp never rang. Jo also kept giving me all kinds of excuses why she was not able to email me the mass booklet format as she had promised at the meeting etc etc due to PC virus problem etc. Its been nearly a mth since our meeting so I'm surprised she hasn't resolved her virus problem since her PC is obviously vital for her biz.
I'm still very willing to them a chance but I'm fast losing my patience esp time is running out. I have resolved to look around for another printer esp a very reliable and trustworthy one. any of u have any good recommendations? would appreciate your help. tks

hi celtricia
I'm having a buffet reception after the wedding (9am ceremony) but never knew that caterers do printing. will chk it out. tks for the tip!
my AD is in May 2005. I don't want to tell them I'm giving them up but I'll certainly look around for others. Would appreciate if u could intro your printer to me. How did u find their service? my email is [email protected].
Thanks very much for your help!

hi gals
I'll be having my church ceremony and tea ceremonies on 1 day and dinner another day. my own relatives are not catholics (my FH's catholic) thus they may not be attending the church wedding. however they are expected to go to my mum's place for the tea ceremony after the church wedding.
any idea how I should go abt indicating this to them clearly? my worry is tat if we verbally tell them to turn up on Day 1 for the tea ceremony and the invitation card says Day 2 for the dinner, they may get mixed up and turn up on Day 2 for the tea ceremony instead since most weddings w/o church are held on 1 day and they have never attended any church wedding before.
any idea on how to counter this? I thot maybe we can DIY print our own little inserts to enclose with the banquet invitation card but wonder whether it will look odd, if u know wat I mean?
