Next Summer, my husband and I will be celebrating out 50th Wedding Anniversary. If it is God's Will we still be alive.
Although he was not Catholic when we married in Church 50 years ago, so we did not have a Mass, just a simple ceremony. He is Catholic today!
We would like to renew our wedding vows at a Mass next Summer.
So my questions are:
I have never been to such celebration before. Is it proper to wear white, or is it better to wear a different color?
We want this to be a private affair, the Mass, just our family, small wedding renew. If others just come that is okay too. We just don’t want a big production, and get lost in the religious aspect.
Is it okay to have my granddaughters escort me down the aisle? Do I even walk down the aisle; what is proper? I was thinking if my granddaughters 6 of them can escort/ walk with me, they can wear their graduation dresses, all are different but modest, prom like dresses. (Graduated from the Mount) within the last few years.
I was thinking of having the younger ones accompany me instead of the older granddaughters, also 6 of them, (still in school), but one of them is novus ordo and won’t be able to receive Holy Communion, which might cause hurt feelings within that family.
Any other ideas would be appreciated.
