Contact your parish where you reside as soon as possible after your engagement and at least six months before your expected wedding day. Your parish priest or deacon will explain all of the requirements for your marriage in the Church. All requirements should be met and your completed file provided to your parish at least one month prior to your wedding date.
Special Circumstances should be addressed with the priest or deacon. Please discuss if:
- - One or both of you have been married before, even civilly
- - One or both of you are or have been in a “common-law” union
- - You are now civilly married to each other and wish to have your marriage blessed (validated) by the Catholic Church
- - You are presently living together
- - Either of you is a teenager
- - A pregnancy is involved
Caution: To avoid possible disappointment, do not book your reception until you have a confirmed date from the Church.
