    • Are these safe to attend? I am unfamiliar with these. I already avoid NO first communions and confirmation but am unsure about these.

    Attend yet, but not participate.  :cowboy:

    Baptisms and Weddings can validly take place without a priest.  So, they are the 2 Sacraments we will agree to attend for novus ordo family members.  (Also to be witnesses that they were done correctly in case a family member should ever become traditional and need witness of that.)

    Funerals are similar...  It is considered an act of mercy to bury the dead.

    I went to one NO funeral about 25 years ago or so, never again. So for me, no, not entering the den of thieves even for passive attendance of any NO service no matter what.

    • Many years ago we assisted at a hybrid wedding. The groom was Prot, and the bride NO Catholic. What a disaster...the Catholic priest consecrated the Bread, the Prot minister did the Wine. !
    Let's just say it was an uncomfortable ceremony, shall we?

    How about weddings in front of a Justice of the Peace? 
    A neoS spx faithful asked the priest if he could be part of the "Wedding Party", for a ceremony in front of a Justice of the Peace. Spouses have no religion I presume. The priest gave permission...? 
    But the grave distinction is "assist" [party of the five, or participation], or attend ( simply being present). Sorry I don't have more details today, but eventually. Anyway, smells scandalous, sinful.

    • Speak with your priest if you have one. Every case is different. Although the n.o. baptism of one of my niece’s daughters was cringeworthy, a few people in grossly immodest or inappropriate attire, the deacon, not priest, was acting, well, silly. I could see that it was at least valid. Frankly, we could have done a better, more dignified lay baptism in the backyard.

    • New order is walking into a masonic lodge.  I would not attend, it is giving the implication that you agree.
