CONGRATULATIONS!

Your desire to be married at
St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish affirms that you see your marriage as a commitment made before God, with the desire to grow in love of God and one another. These parish guidelines are meant to assist you in the planning of your upcoming marriage and offer some details regarding the wedding ceremony.

Please contact the parish at least six to nine months prior to the date of the marriage. 
 
Other considerations:

If the parish calendar has no conflicts, your wedding may be scheduled for any day of the week (excluding Sunday).
  • When reserving the wedding date, a stipend of $75.00 (which will be used for Works of Charity) is due.
  • Saturday weddings can begin as early as desired, but no later than 2:00 pm. They must be completed by 3:30 pm because of our Saturday evening confession and Mass schedule.
  • The music for weddings must be sacred and approved by the Director of Music. Generally, our Director of Music assists the couple in selecting music, provides musical accompaniment, and cantors for the wedding ceremony. (A stipend of $200.00 is the current offering and should be paid on or before the rehearsal date.) 
  • A certified copy of your baptismal record dated within six months of your wedding is required.
