Marsha Clyne Wedding & Event Designs: First Communion Ideas

The First Communion, is a ceremony held in the Latin Church tradition of the Catholic Church. It is the colloquial name for a person's first reception of the sacrament of the Holy Eucharist, and in Roman Catholic churches occurs typically at age seven to twelve depending on national custom.

For the Latin American community, every event is cause of a party and celebration, so the first communion not far behind. After the ecclesiastical ceremony family and friends gather to share lunch and celebrate among food, drink and games that your child receive the sacrament of communion.
