Below you will find a link to a sample Order of Service for a Catholic Wedding Ceremony outside of the mass. There will be no offertory but you can add a piece of music after the Prayers of the Faithful if you so wish. There will be no communion but you can have a reflection sung or spoken at this point of the ceremony if you choose to do so. Hope it helps some of you out

I’ve received numerous e mails asking for ideas for non-religious ceremonies or music that could be used at the signing of the register (if the celebrant allows!) so I thought I’d give you a few suggestions so to get you all started –

When You Say You Love Me (Josh Groban)
Feels Like Home (Randy Newman – theme tune from the movie Michael)
Miracle (Foo Fighters)
What A Wonderful World (Louis Armstrong)
You Light Up My Life
Here There and Everywhere (The Beatles)
Here Comes The Sun (The Beatles)
All I Ask of You (The Phantom of the Opera)
Over The rainbow (Eva cassidy)
At Last (Eva Cassidy)
Songbird (Eva Cassidy)
Come Away With Me (Norah Jones)
A World In Union
Unforgettable (Nat King Cole)
When I Fall In Love (Nat King Cole)
Love Changes Everything (Andrew Lloyd Weber)
We’ve Only Just Begun (The Carpenters)
Nella Fantasia (Theme tune from The Mission)
Sul Aria (From the Marriage of Figaro)
Cinema Paradiso (Katherine Jenkins)

Where to Put Music in a Catholic Wedding Ceremony

I’m often asked where music needs to go during a catholic wedding so here you go!

Processional
Individual candle ceremony
Psalm
Alleluia
Lighting of Unity Candle
Offertory
Holy Holy
Ar n’Athair
Sign of Peace
Communion (choose 2 pieces)
Signing of Register (choose 2 pieces)
Recessional

You don’t necessarily need music at all the parts above and not everyone has the candle ceremony. If you do have the candles, it should either be a short instrumental piece or something that you can just sing a verse of as it only takes a minute.

the register time varies hugely depending on the photographer – select at least two pieces but I recommend you don’t put your favourite music here as you just won’t hear it – you’ll either be out in the sacristy signing or you’ll have the photographer talking to you on the altar.
