Marriage & Weddings

PreCana (Marriage Preparation) Couples getting married in the Catholic tradition must attend PreCana. This pre-marriage educational seminar is conducted by Old St. Pat’s staff and married couples, and takes place on three consecutive Sunday afternoons from 2 to 4:45 p.m at the Fr. Jack Wall Mission Center, 711 W. Monroe, Chicago. The fee is $275.

We are delighted that you have chosen to celebrate the Sacrament of Marriage at Old St. Pat’s. We invite all couples who will be married to PreCana. This program will fulfill the requirement of the Archdiocese of Chicago, which asks engaged couples to participate in a pre-marriage education seminar. PreCana at Old St. Pat’s is administered by staff and married couples from Old St. Pat’s. You will enjoy the program and meeting other engaged couples from our community. The program is designed to take place over three consecutive Sunday afternoons from 2 to 4:45 p.m. followed by an invitation to attend 5 p.m. mass with us.

  • PreCana 2023
Couples can also take these classes through the Archdiocese of Chicago. Visit FamilyMinistries.org or call 312.534.8201 for more information.

Planning an Out of Town Wedding
If you are planning an out of town wedding and want to work with Old St. Pat’s for marriage preparation, the fee is $300. It is also customary to give the priest a stipend at your discretion. All requirements for marriage preparation apply. Make arrangements at marriage.ministry@oldstpats.org.

Planning Music for your Wedding
The process for beginning to plan music for your wedding begins at our Wedding Music Site: oldstpats.org/wedding-music.  You will find the resources, guidelines, and overall process here to begin, including repertoire samples, and forms to request your music and musicians. 

Wedding Music Fairs are typically held on the first Monday night of February, June, and October from 7–9 p.m. at Old St. Patrick’s Church. Please note: during the pandemic, all content is available virtually on the website as we are not hosting wedding fairs currently.  It is necessary to start with the overview video from our Director of Music, Mark Scozzafave, and proceed through the process from there.  We are delighted to help you in this exciting time to bring a piece of OSP music to your wedding celebration!

Unity Candle
We would be delighted to have an Old St. Pat's Unity Candle ready for you at the Church. Please place your order online here.
Please indicate on the ceremony worksheet that you have ordered a Unity Candle. Wishing you many Blessings!
