Couples should register for our marriage preparation program at least 6-9 months before their wedding date.  Our program is an introductory class, led by one of our clergy members and attended by engaged couples who are beginning marriage preparation. At this introductory class, couples learn about the marriage preparation process, complete preliminary forms, listen to a presentation from St. Gabriel clergy, and have time to ask questions. 

At this introductory meeting you will also complete the FOCCUS questionnaire – this inventory is a facilitative instrument, raising questions and identifying areas for couples in their preparation. Further meetings with members of the marriage preparation team and the priest/deacon will be required, as well as a diocesan one-day workshop.

This introductory class is held on the third Wednesday of every month (except December) at 7:00 pm. There is a $35 administrative fee for the marriage preparation program, payable by check or cash on the evening of the first class.

You may register by contacting Carolyn Tillman here.

Weddings are scheduled on Saturdays at 2:00 pm and 7:00 pm in the church or chapel.  Rehearsals are scheduled on Fridays at 4:00, 5:00 or 6:00 pm. Reservations should not be considered confirmed until you have received a printed confirmation from the parish office.   

Fees for use of the church, officiant, musicians and wedding coordinator will be provided upon request of reservation.
