Does anyone have an example of a catholic wedding program. I have found a few sites online but they give limited information and do not resemble programs I've seen in the past for a catholic ceremony. Some even label the parts of the mass in latin which seems a little antiquated and might seem a bit stuffy for our non catholic guests. I'm looking for something that will be easy to follow along and provide all the necessary information.
If you private message me your email, I have something that will be a start. I found it through a link on here, don't remember where and I didn't bookmark it. It has too much information, but you could delete what you don't need. It is definitely helpful. Just let me know!
Below is an example I had, along with the wedsite it came from and another site that might help you:

Exchange of Vows
Blessing and Exchange of Rings A circle is the symbol of wholeness, perfection, and unity. Like circles, their rings have no beginning and no end. They are tokens of the growing relationship that Susanne and Alex have come here to celebrate and confirm.
Lighting of the Unity Candle "Ave Maria" by Shubert Susanne and Alex are going to light their Unity Candle, a symbol of their relationship and love. The candles from which they light it have been lit by their parents to represent their lives to this moment.
The lights, representing the faith, wisdom, and love they have received from their parents, are distinct, each burning alone. Susanne and Alex will light the center candle to symbolize the union of their lives. As this one light burns undivided, so shall their love be one.
May the radiance of this one light be a testimony of their unity. May these candles burn brightly as symbols of their commitment to each other, and as a tribute to their parents' everlasting love for them.
