Protestant Wedding
Love, Honour, Cherish. "In sickness and in health". The service can be as short as 15 minutes, and can include Holy Communion. Because the marriage is considered holy, but not a sacrement, you can usually hold it outside of a church.
Catholic Weddings
The ceremony follows a strict set of rules, but the structure is similar to the Protestant weddings. The main difference is that the a traditional ceremony included a nupital mass after the exchange of rings. which means the ceremony last about an hour.
After the marriage rite, the priest makes everyone to shake hands with their neighbours.
Catholic ceremonies must take place in a church or chapel and you must announce your intention to wed by publishing banns(wedding announcements) in the church bulletin for 3 consecutive Sundays.
