My sister and brother did this... I'll see if I can find their booklets.

You basically leave out consecration/anything to do with communion. Everything else stays in... Readings, gospel, prayers of the faithful, sign of peace etc etc

Here Comes The Trio

After the Rite of Marriage (which will be broken into sections such as Declaration of Consent, Exchange of Vows, Blessing of Rings, Lighting of Marriage Candle etc), then there's Prayers of the Faithful. Straight away there's the "Eucharistic Rite" which includes The Offertory, the Our Father, the Sign of Peace, and Communion itself. All that is left out, so the Prayers of the Faithful is the last thing. Then after that there's maybe a prayer of the newly married couple or something but it's into the final blessing and the signing of the Register. I may have a mass booklet somewhere of this format but I won't be able to find it anywhere soon, sorry! But hopefully it helps you to know the last thing is Prayers of the Faithful I think. At some masses we've played at where they leave this out, the Priest still takes it upon himself to include the Sign of Peace somewhere, so make sure you clarify that with the priest. Sorry if I've not been clear or anything, just working off what's in my head and hoping it makes sense!
