The Shape of a Christian Wedding

What happens in a Christian wedding, and in what order?

Four parts and about fifteen steps, from the processional to the recessional, with what the law needs, what makes the service Christian, and what the couple may choose.

A priest in a white surplice raises his hand over a kneeling groom in a brown cloak and a kneeling bride in a pink dress and white veil, with an altar boy holding a holy-water bucket and an old man watching.
