If you’re getting married in a Catholic Church, chances are a Google of ‘Wedding Prayers of the Faithful’ ideas is on your to-do list. Putting the ceremony booklet together can be a tricky and tedious part of the planning with lots of research when it comes to readings and prayers, but your Prayers of the Faithful can be a lovely way to involve family and friends in your ceremony.

Your Guide to Getting Married in a Catholic Church

We’ve come across lots of couples looking for prayer ideas at the moment in our forums so we’ve done a bit of research and put together some of the most popular Prayers of the Faithful wedding options. We’ve broken them down in to categories to make it even easier to find what you’re looking for whether you’re looking to honour a lost loved one or give your parents a bit of a special mention for all that they’ve done for you. You can tweak them slightly, add in names to make them more personal or even use them as a guide when it comes to writing your own (always check withyour local priest or parish if you’re unsure of anything as they will be able to advise you on regulations and practices within the parish).
