How long is a Catholic wedding?

Question

It starts at 1:30 what time will I be out?

It's a mass

Answer 1

If it is a mass it will be at least an hour, maybe even closer to an hour and a half.

Answer 2

I would say 3:00, mass takes an hour.

Answer 3

2:30 but since it's a wedding, maybe at around 2:45

Answer 4

If the church wedding ceremony will start on 1:30 pm  then it will probably end by 5p.m. because the mass will take 2 hours and after that there will be picture-taking with bride and the groom on the church that will take an hour.

Answer 5

Hi.  It will be AN HOUR!!  That is it!  I have been Catholic all my life.  Unless the priest has an unusually long sermon, it should not go past the hour mark.  I don't know where people get the idea that they are 1-1/2 hours or longer.  The priest usually cuts his sermon to a few minutes in order to get the whole thing done in 1 hour.

That has been my experience and I have been to many, many weddings.

Answer 6

a full mass will be about an hour, so I would say 2:30.

Answer 7

about an hour and a half.

Answer 8

Most likely just an hour but plan for an hour and a half to be on the safe side

Answer 9

OMG i hate masses they're sOoo boring it depends it can take up to 2hours

Answer 10

probably until about 2:30 2:45

Answer 11

i have been to a catholic wedding that was an hour and a half to two hours...also been to a wedding ceremony that was 3 hours long cause it was trilingual...you should talk to the priest to have a better time limit...i think its all depends on how and what you want in your wedding ceremony.

Answer 12

a mass lasts between 1 hour and hour and a half. so it will probably end at 3:00
