Hi Fleur,
It wasn't really midnight mass lah...heehee. Mass was at 1030pm, ended at 1130pm and then it was party time! hahaha. I didn't want to go initially, but FH insisted. Think I will do it every year now. It's very crowded too...like Good Friday mass kinda packed. Quite fun lah.
Hi Jacquise,
ME is for married couples. EE is for attached/engaged/ROM-ed couples, who haven't had church ceremony yet. Think you are probably referring to MPC and EE. Well, you gotta look at your schedule and see which one fits both of you best. EE is a stay-in 1 weekend thing (Friday to Sunday) while MPC is over 6 consecutive weekends (Saturdays I think).
Hi Chummy, nvm. Holy Cross is just as nice and u dun have to worry if it rains or anything, coz there's shelter and it links to the basement canteen.

Hi all,
I'm planning to have my solemnisation on my AD during the weddding mass. But quite confused about the sequence..should I solemnise before or after mass? Also,have a slight problem, the priest who is officiating at my mass is not a licenced ROM solemniser,according to ROM's list. So I will need to invite another priest to solemnise my wedding. Any advice on the sequence, pls? Thanks = )

hi jacquise,
EE (engaged encounter) is over the weekend (friday nite to sunday evening)
MPC (marriage encounter course) is over 6 sundays (3 sundays at church and 3 at the couple's houses).
both covers same stuff but of cos the weekend one will be like a 'crash course' in a way... most pple will take the one that suits their timing best...
u cant' save on food..if your mass ends at a timing that is just nice for lunch, you have to serve lunch.. $10 is good enough already.. for tea, the norm min is about $5.

Hi Minssy,
To officiate a wedding mass, can be any catholic priests right, not necessarily one who is able to conduct the ROM soleminise part. Not all Catholic priests is listed on the ROM Solemnisers list leh. What I mean is that not every Catholic priest can conduct the solemnisation outside ROM. Aiyah, so confusing.... can shed some light?

Hi bliz,
yap, u need a priest who's been licensed solemnizer to do that solemnization bit. Yes, not every priest can conduct solemnization outside ROM.
What a friend of mine did was, she had 2 priests to con-celebrate her wedding mass. One to officiate the mass (i.e. to do the usual wedding mass - prayers, gospel, homily etc) and the other to do the solemnization bit (say vows, exchange rings, sign cert etc). Coz they were close to the priest who officiated, but they needed the licensed solemniser too. So maybe you can ask your priest about the option of having 2 priests con-celebrate your mass.

bliz... most parish priests or diocesan priests are licensed...
there are a few who may not.. so you got to check with them.. but if u want them to celebrate mass maybe because for reasons like u know them personally and are close to them, there's always something like co-celebrating.. where u get another priest who has a license to do so.. or at most get the parish priest to come down for that part to do that..
hope it helps
hope it helps
Novena church is not allowed for weddings.. but i'm sure u can always ask the redemtrist priest to solemnise the wedding for u...
i think one of the reason is that novena church though is a church is meant for devotional purposes..
But hey u got so many other churches, u'll be spoilt for choices. 
I am not sure about cathedral.. but maybe with all ur make up and ur FH is suits and all.. maybe u could consider a church with air-con

hi jacquise,
hahahahah! oh tea will be cool
$5 reception will be good enough
i only attended EE and i think its cool.. there are quite a few topics disussed and its also an oppotunity for you to know more on your FH....
MPC is cool too.. there are definitely more bonding between the pple cos its a much smaller group..
put it this way, if you are on the shy type, EE is cool.. if you are very open to share stuff and would like more personalise time, MPC will be great for you..

Hello gals,
Happy New Year!
Need to enquire on something...My wedding mass is 10.30am this nov 11. Sequence of events is as follows:
1) Gate crashing
2) Wedding mass
3) Lunch Reception
4) Tea ceremony at his place
5) Tea Ceremony at my place
7) Wedding banquet
Looks very hectic and thought of taking some outdoor pictures as well.
Thinking of combining tea ceremony at hotel just before banquet but seems like parents dun really like it being so late. They prefer it to be done earlier in the day.
Another thing is to shift the mass earlier to 9am or 930am. But is it too early for the florists and guests? Would appreciate if anyone can help with some suggestions or advice..
thanks!

hi adel,
too tight. dun think its a good idea to tire everybody.... be more realistic in the timing.. unless your church & both houses are so near...
OD pictures? sorry to say but dun even dream abt it....
having mass at 9am is ok but you will have slightly lesser time for gatecrashing unless you wanna the groom to reach at 6am that kinda thingy.. cos by having mass at 9am, you have to reach at 830 latest to prepare.. your whoever is going to help you have to reach at 7+ to settle logistics...
be more realistic and plan your timings carefully okie?

Hi CSI, Minssy,Gloria
Thanks heaps for your advice... Really appreciate your kind advice. Things are much clearer now. Well, looks like I have to get two priests to co-celebrate during the mass. Just one more question for advice, should I do the solemnisation part before or after the mass?
Hi Joanna,
I think the 20 Jan EE is fully booked... last remembered when I checked the schedule on the Veritas website. I'm planning to register for one in March.

hi bliz,
the sequence is fixed and you are not allowed to change.. you may refer to the attached.
signing of ROM cert itself is usually after the final blessing...

minssy... so really hectic huh.... should i combine the tea ceremonies on the church premises ?this might be a better idea cos there is a lunch reception so tea ceremony can be after that, but another question i have is whether the church (SFX) has a appropriate place to have it . The other better alternative will be tea ceremony at the hotel before the wedding banquet though my parents not keen.Still some time away so will have to convince them along the way.
anyone else who is faced with the same situation as me? any other timelines i can look at?

Hi Blitz,
yap, minssy's right.
solemnisatiion is incorporated into the mass/service (blessings, exchange rings etc) and cert signing is at the end, together with church register (if they do that).
Hi adel,
wow, ur schedule looks really tight. Minssy's been there, done that. hahaha.
So she knows how it goes. Agree with her that you shouldn't tire everyone else (and imptly, yourselves) out...otherwise, you can't enjoy your big day and might end up more stressed.
Tea ceremony at church sounds good. I've seen one of my friends do that. (hahaha, i'm always quoting my friends' weddings here...that shows how many weddings I've attended before it's my turn...) That friend had her tea ceremony at one side of the reception area where it's not so crowded, and after most of the guests have left.
I guess other timelines would be things like what time ur MUA will be arriving to do ur banquet make-up, u doing anything special during banquet with hubby? need time to rehearse?
My AD is just 1 week after urs...
yap, minssy's right.

hi csi fan,
thanx for supporting me
hi adel,
yes.. i know its tight cos i've been there and done it! hahahahh! mine was at 11am service and by the time the caterer settle everything, its 1+ and we had to go home, pack stuff and go to hotel. once we reach hotel, my coordinators make sure things were ok and all... i felt the pace was ok cos all i had to do is to follow what my coordinators asked me to do..however, they feel that my timing is already quite tight. why? cos church takes up quite alot of timing.
tea ceremony in church is only good if you have a catholic family/IL.. traditional ones will not like it..
timing wise... you have to sacrifice 1 house.. that means, if you wan your hubby to gatecrash, then have the tea ceremony at your house after that.. THEN go to church OR your hubby's place, whichever the timing and distance is better.. its all abt logistics....
i suggest:
5.00am: wake up
5.30 - 6.45am: make up
7am - 7.30am: gatecrashing
7.30am - 8.30am: tea ceremony
9.15am: reach your hubby's place
9.30am - 10.30am: tea ceremony
11am: reach church
11.30am - 12.30pm - mass
12.30 - 2pm - photo taking & reception
(aim to end at 2pm else you will be very very tired when it comes to dinner time...)
4pm - reach hotel bridal suite to do whatever u need to...
nite:
6pm - 7.15pm: make up
7.30pm: go down mingle
8.30pm: the same usual stuff lah huh....
the above timing guideline is just a guide and i have no idea where you live and where your church is and all.. so, like this already its tight, let alone going to 2 houses?

Hi Adel,
I actually think your proposed itinerary is possible, though slightly rushed. And depends how far apart the various places (respective houses and church) are. And without the outdoor pics too.
My wedding was roughly like this:
- 7.30am - wake up, had breakfast, showered.
- 8.30am - MUA arrived
- 9am - photographer arrived
- 9.45am - Jie meis arrived
- 10am - Gatecrashing.
- 11am - Left for church.
- Abt 1pm - Left church for tea ceremony on groom's side
- 2.30pm - Arrived at my side for tea ceremony
- 3.30pm - Left my house for hotel.
- 6pm - MUA arrived.
- 7.45pm - I went down to the cocktail area.
It was partly 'cos our houses are only abt 10 to 15 minutes apart, and my house was abt 10 minutes from church. That helped a lot. Slightly rushed but everyone was happy.

Hi Adel,
I had my tea ceremony in the hotel, at 6.30 pm before the start of the banquet. (Din want to tire ourselves!) It worked well for us, since this means that some of the guests were early then and we could start the dinner at 8.15 pm.
Oh, by the way... a big of digression... As a guide, I think the dinner should not start beyond 8.40 pm. It means some guests will be left quite hungry. If there is anything I learn out of weddings, guests will tend to remember the very good things, and unfortunately, the unusual 'bad' things.
Hi Verylastmin,
Oh ya... your wedding was just over right? How was it?

I read in another forum that Catholics have no gatecrashing... Or this is more a dialect group thingy? I dun tink i'll b getting hubby to gatecrash. Too much time spent. My Church wedding is 9am, i tink i have to get up at 4am then. hehe.
Oh no, Joanna,Im just as lagging behind. Me only confirmed church & dinner venue. Started hunting bridal only last wk. Anyway anyone has a timeline? If we confirm all the venue, BS, church etc, wat more is there left to do? Shake leg & do facials? I would only b bz with reno in June.

Hi Fleur, yup, my wedding was last month. It went off perfectly! We really had a fabulous time, thanks to all our wonderful friends and relatives. Think our guests really enjoyed themselves. And it started surprisingly punctually too - think we walked in at about 8.15 or so.
Hi Jacquise, don't panic, you've still got plenty of time. My wedding was beginning December, I only started to look for hotels at the end of May.

Hi Minssy, CSI
Once again, thanks for your great advice! You gals are great.
Hi Joanna,
Thought i was early but when I realised that some of my shortlisted PG and VG were already booked on my AD when I called to ask them - my panic button went off!heh Quite scary....Going to be busy with renos as well so really scared that I do not have enough time.
Hi Adel,
My schedule quite similar to yours minus the gatecrashing. My mass is at 10am. Thought of proceeding to the hotel for tea ceremony after the lunch reception but FH is not keen on the idea. Still trying to convince him to take up the idea...

Hi jacquise, is it? Catholics have no gatecrashing? Maybe it's coz of the time constraint bit...coz mass/service is usually in the morning...my cousin had hers. I intend to have gatecrashing too. My banquet will be on the 2nd night, so the gatecrashing bit will fit into my schedule.
oh, you are not alone manz...I also only confirmed church and dinner venue. haven't settled anything else...ok, maybe the tentative guest list is out (needed that to help in the booking of dinner venue).

hi bliz,
welcome.. explain how tight and rushed everyone will be lor... if he dun see the light, then emphasise again....
hi csi fan/jacquise,
nah no such thing one lah.. gate crashing is a chinese custom.. not a catholic custom. technically speaking also, we shd do the church first before tea ceremonies mah.. they are all 'pple say' kinda stuff...

Thanks alot gals for all your valuable input
..really appreciate it...
although its some time away but i am still stressed out thinking about it cos i am sure both side parents esp my IL who are non catholics will want tea ceremony at their respective houses so i really think it will take a lot of persuasion to change venues though i have not spoken to them yet...AND my parents (catholic) will def. want the church wedding before the tea ceremonies.. SIGH SIGH SIGH...feel like screaming actually.... so its like there will be no choice but to have a tight timeline... actually jacquise's and bliz's idea of no gatecrashing sounds good cos i can save time and the idea of the groom waiting for the bride at the church sounds romantic haha... like got suspense. The good thing is my house is 2 min away from the church (haha can walk there in my gown huh, and all the neighbours will know) and my FH house is about 20min away .. so does that make anything better? ok and i can say bye bye to outdoor pictures then .. anyway... i will sit on this issue cos still some time away...
Hi Csi! yah i know we have close ADs cos i saw you from the nov 06 brides thread
oh so you havent found a BS yet? nvm still got lots of time, am sure you will find one soon.. most imptn is the church and wedding venue.. the others can still take your time..
Hi very last min, congrats! yup worse scenario (which i pray i wont have to) i will have to follow the hectic schedule, of course without the outdoor pics....
oh btw, anyone going for EE next week? im going!

Hi CSI, Adel and Petrina,
I am a nov 06 bride too!!!!!
Petrina's going to compile a list?
great, then we can share our progresses and and urge each other to move faster if any of us are too slow in preperations!
So far, I have only spoken to the priest, and booked the church for the date. Father tells me that since my wedding is in Nov 06, he suggest I only meet up with him in July 06, together with a newly issued baptism cert... that's my progress so far.. hee.. havent been reading up on anything else!!
