The ceremony takes place when couples who have been civilly married “want to make their wedding proper with the church or get a blessing,” said Father Ramon Baez, one of two parochial vicars at the parish who performed the ceremony.

Maria Perez described the ceremony as a blessing for her family. She said her daughter Catherine had been asking her why she didn’t receive the Eucharist at Mass.

"She was asking me all these questions and that’s when I said I need to do something about it,” Maria Perez said.
