Joyous Ceremonies by Father Mark Earl

with through email. I was able to obtain copies of our marriage license after Father Mark signed and mailed it off around 2 weeks after the wedding!

booklet to aid us in selecting what readings we wanted for the ceremony. Having a shortened Catholic ceremony was really important to both of us but we wanted to have it at our chosen ceremony site. It is hard to find someone to do this since you are usually unable to have a catholic ceremony outside the church so we were relieved we found Father Mark and he was willing to come to the winery we held our wedding at. He arrived promptly for the rehearsal and gave us a great guide as to where to stand, what to do, etc- those little details that get lost or when you are nervous get forgotten. We asked him to provide us with communion and he was amazing with making sure I didn’t have any spills of wine on my wedding dress!!! He was fantastic and our guests loved our ceremony. He added in a few jokes and our guests loved it. The tradition of the catholic ceremony was so important to us as a couple and our ceremony was meaningful and beautiful. Thank you Father Mark for making our day so special.

ried my husband and myself. There was a bit of a problem with the ceremonial sacrament in the beginning between the two officiants but Father Earl handled it beautifully and everything came together perfectly! It was exactly what we wanted! Thank you!

very professional and responded quickly to all of our emails and calls. He is a fantastic speaker with a great sense of humor. Most importantly he worked with us to draft a beautiful Catholic ceremony that made a great lasting impression on our friends and family. The wedding ceremony was my favorite part of my wedding day and that is in part due to Father Mark. My husband and I cannot say enough positive things about him and would recommend him any day!
