Traditional Wedding Ceremony in 11th-Century Chiesa di Santi Apostoli Church

After outgrowing their original church closer to the venue Jenna and Anthony moved their ceremony to one of the oldest churches in Florence, Italy, Chiesa di Santi Apostoli, a Romanesque-style church built in the 11th century. The couple had a full, traditional, Roman Catholic ceremony, "Our ceremony followed a standard Italian Mass schedule, which is slightly different from what we're used to in the US," Jenna says. "It included four readings, which allowed us to include some important family members. It also allowed for Anthony's father to do a reading in Italian, for our many Italian-speaking guests. To make things easier, we printed out booklets so guests could follow along with nearly every word. It was so different at parts that I actually didn't know when it was time to kiss!"
