We woke up super duper early on the 3rd day. Think it was about 6am. This was because we needed head to the studio and do make up for Addy. It was a no-camera day as they forbid it (brrr...) Later we would know why they disallowed it. So hence we did not take pictures until we started photoshoot proper.

It was one of the things that was most worrying because of ignorance and we did not know where to start. However, friendly advice led us to borrowing the wedding mass booklets from those who have been there and done that. The main idea is to get the format right. The next step is to select your readings.
