[Rev. 03/09/09] Page 3 Santa Cruz Catholic Church Guidelines for Marriage Liturgies The parish hall (PAC) may be reserved if it is available only after the date of the wedding is set with the priest or deacon, after these Guidelines have been received and acknowledged, and after the deposit is made. To reserve the PAC, please contact Mr. Jerry Herrera at the church office (312-2520). There is a rental fee and set-up/clean-up fee for the PAC. The PAC may be reserved only after you have set the date for your marriage liturgy with a priest or deacon, after having read and signed these Guidelines, and after having paid your fee. This prevents booking conflicts. GUIDELINES FOR MUSIC Marriage is a sacramental celebration, and, as such, all music for a marriage ceremony should reflect the sacred act of worship. Therefore, all music must be sacred in nature and reflect the faith of the Church. The words of any songs must reflect the context of faith. Songs that are secular in origin or that focus on romantic love are better suited for the reception. If you have any questions, consult with the Coordinator of Liturgy & Music. Guest music ministers from outside Santa Cruz Parish are welcome but should communicate with the Coordinator of Liturgy & Music. All music ministers, instrumentalists, and soloists are required to follow the guidelines for liturgical music at Santa Cruz Catholic Church. There is a $100 requested stipend for the accompanist/instrumentalist and $75 for the cantor/soloist. Should one individual provide both services, the stipend is $175, the combined stipends for both accompanist and soloist. These stipends for the Santa Cruz music ministers are separate and are paid directly to them at least two (2) weeks prior to the ceremony. Any arrangements for payments to guest music ministers are made by the couple. NO pre-recorded music, cassette tapes, or CDs are allowed. All music must be sacred in nature and reflect the faith of the Church. If there are guest music ministers and the church’s sound equipment and/or instruments are to be used, these arrangements should be made before the ceremony. Guest music ministers are to communicate beforehand with Mr. Chavana regarding keys, microphones, instruments, etc. GUIDELINES FOR FLOWERS AND DECORATIONS Furnishings and seasonal church decorations must remain in place. No flowers may be added during the season of Lent. During Advent, the Advent wreath remains in its place, and flowers are kept to a minimum. During Christmas, there are many poinsettias decorating the church; these and the Christmas Manger cannot be moved. There are two (2) options for flowers: 1) For $300, the sacristans of Santa Cruz Church will provide flowers outside of Advent and Lent. The flowers remain in the church for the weekend, and an announcement is placed in that weekend’s bulletin indicating that the flowers that weekend are in honor of your wedding. This is a very economical way for you to provide flowers for your wedding and give a gift to Santa Cruz Church. 2) You may provide your own florist. Your florist must follow all guidelines, and their work and time schedule must be coordinated with our sacristans. (Roland and Romelia Hernandez may be reached at 512/312-2520.) There is no work place provided for florists; they must bring their flower arrangements completed and ready for use. A kneeler is provided for the bride and groom. [Rev. 03/09/09] Page 4 Santa Cruz Catholic Church Guidelines for Marriage Liturgies No flowers, arches, or candles are to obstruct the space around the altar or tabernacle. Flowers and other decorations should also not block the music minister’s view of the altar. For safety reasons, no candles may be attached to the pews. For safety reasons, no aisle runners are permitted. It is your responsibility to clear all decorations from the church as soon as possible following the ceremony. All decorations should be cleared within 30 minutes of ending your wedding. Another ceremony or liturgy may follow. If you have used an outside florist, we would certainly appreciate the gift of your flowers after your wedding for our weekend Masses. Please let our sacristans know if you wish to donate your flowers. Although the use of the Unity Candle is not encouraged, the church does have a Unity Candle stand. The three candles use oil cylinders and do not drip. If the Unity Candle is desired, you must use the one provided by the church; this prevents drips and damage to carpeting and other furnishings. There is no fee for using the church’s Unity Candle. Flower petals, rice, birdseed, bubbles, confetti, smoke producing devices, Silly String, or sparklers cannot be used inside or outside of the church. This prohibition is for safety and maintenance reasons. THERE ARE NO EXCEPTIONS. Failure to comply will result in the loss of your $100 deposit in addition to incurring the cost of any repairs as the result of damage. No tape or tacks may be used to attach bows or flowers to the pews. They may be attached with ribbon, string, or plastic clips that fit over the pews. Please assign someone to remove any pew bows and all decorations immediately after the ceremony. Please pick up all trash, programs, etc., that may have been left behind. GUIDELINES FOR PHOTOGRAPHERS All photographers (still and video) must check with the priest or deacon prior to the rehearsal. We want the couple to have a good remembrance of their ceremony; however, the photographers and videographers should be discreet and not distract in any way during the ceremony. Photographers are not to interfere with the liturgy or the exchange of vows by excessive movement or flashes. If there are any questions, please address them to the presiding priest or deacon before the ceremony. Photographer must remember that marriage is an act of worship and that unnecessary distractions are unacceptable. Therefore, photographers and videographers are not allowed in the sanctuary at any time during the liturgy and are to remain at a respectful distance so as not to distract the congregation. Video cameras are allowed under the conditions stated above. All video cameras must remain stationary. No extra camera lights may be used during the liturgy. Flash lighting is permitted only at special moments, such as vows, rings, communion of the couple, Hispanic customs (arras, lasso, etc.). Extra lighting is permissible following the liturgy. You and the photographer are asked to respect the sacredness of the church while giving instructions and taking pictures of the wedding party. Photographs are normally permitted only after the ceremony. [Rev. 03/09/09] Page 5 Santa Cruz Catholic Church Guidelines for Marriage Liturgies Any photographs following the wedding should take no longer than thirty (30) minutes. The sacristans will inform the photographer when s/he has exceeded the limit. It is expected that the photography session will immediately end. Failure to comply results in loss of the $100 deposit. It is best that the photographer be given a list before the photo session so that s/he will know what photographs need to be taken (parents, grandparents, etc.). This will help assure that they complete their work in the allotted 30-minute timeframe. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Attached to these guidelines is an acknowledgement stating that the bride and groom have received and read a copy of these guidelines and that they agree to abide by the guidelines. It also serves as a receipt for the fee of using the church. This acknowledgement must be signed and given to the priest, deacon, or sacristans prior to reserving the church. Priests or deacons from other parishes who preside at weddings at Santa Cruz Church are asked to remain in the church until the wedding party has left. Please deliver a completed copy of the wedding file to the sacristans after the ceremony. Additional copies of “Guidelines for Music,” “Guidelines for Flowers and Decorations,” and “Guidelines for Photographers” are included in this document to present to outside music ministers, outside florists, and photographers. Please give them their copy of the guidelines so they will be able to comply with our established rules. The couple assumes financial responsibility for: Repairs of any damage to the church, church property, or other facilities at Santa Cruz Parish at the rehearsal or before, during, and after the wedding due to negligence or vandalism associated with the wedding; and Replacing any items taken from the church. If your wedding time is Saturday at 2:00 PM, everyone must be out of the church by 3:30 PM to allow for cleaning prior to confessions, which are scheduled to begin at 4:00 PM. If your wedding time is Saturday evening, please do not arrive before 6:30 PM. An earlier arrival will cause disruption of the 5:30 PM Vigil Mass and will create traffic problems in the parking lot.
