A nuptial blessing is a prayer offered by a priest during a wedding ceremony that calls upon God to bless and strengthen the marriage. It is a sacred and significant moment in the wedding ceremony where the couple receives God's grace and blessing for their union.
Actually the practice dates back to Jewish times. When a priest wished to call a special blessing he would lay is hands on the individual during his prayer of blessing. It continues today, especially in rites to call down the power of the Holy Spirit such as during the Sacrament of Confirmation.
During a Nuptial between a Catholic and non-Catholic, the Officiant [Priest or Deacon] blesses the couple. During the baptism of a child, the Officiant [Priest or Deacon] blesses the mother, father and godparents of the child as well as all assembled. If I can bless a car, why not a Protestant? My mother is Protestant! Rev. Robert J. Sweeney, www.holyrosary-ny.com

Catholic hand symbols hold various meanings and significance in the Catholic faith. For example, the sign of the cross is a gesture of blessing and protection, representing the Trinity.

These symbols serve as reminders of the beliefs and practices of the Catholic faith, helping to deepen one's spiritual experience and connection to God.
