Ceremony: We understand for many of our guests this will be the first time witnessing a traditional Catholic Malayalee wedding ceremony. Booklets will be provided the day of the ceremony to describe what is being performed, as well as give instructions when it is expected for guests to stand, kneel, sit, and recite phrases.
Time: It is imperative that the ceremony begin promptly at 1pm. Another wedding party is scheduled following our event, so there will be no room to make up for delays. We are looking forward to everyone sharing and witnessing in our joyous occasion, and we kindly ask you respect our itinerary and arrive at a time that will not disrupt the program. Those who arrive late will be required to remain in the church vestibule until an appropriate time in the ceremony; only then will an attendant allow you take a seat, as to not distract other guests, and yours truly. Thank you. TRANSLATION: NO C.P or I.S.T TIME
