Does anyone know of any choral music settings based on any of the Gospel text for the wedding feast at Cana? I’m pretty sure this is going to be the Gospel for our wedding Mass, and was wondering if anyone knew of any sacred music based on the text itself, which we could have as a choral entrance.

Many thanks,
David

Hi, David.

As you know, there’s not much detail about the wedding in Cana. That said, you might Google up the song, “The Wedding” by Michael Card, which sets itself at the event.

If you haven’t already, also see ForYourMarriage.org, the USCCB’s official site, which has some song suggestions, and also ask your priest, who will certainly have songs as well as readings that are appropriate for your wedding.

I’m still buzzed about my own wedding, and that was over 3 months ago! 🙂 God bless.

Is this wedding in the OF or the EF of the Roman Rite?

OF, but quite happy to have Latin choral or chanted music (probably just an introit, offertory and recessional - no point having an elaborate choral Sanctus while the priest stands there looking at the congregation 👋 )
