congratulations!

Congratulations on your engagement!

​Please speak to the priest at least six months before your planned date for the wedding. There are both Church and civil arrangements that must be done before any marriage can take place, so that the laws of the Church and of the state are followed, The priest will arrange to see you both and begin the process. 

As far as the Church is concerned, we need to know that one or both of you have been baptised in the Catholic Church (or received into it), whether or not you have been confirmed and that there is no reason that you should not be married (for example, you are not closely related to each other or are still bound by any previous marriage). Before any couple may be married, they must undertake a  session of preparation so that they understand what marriage is and the commitment they are making.
Marriage is - in brief summary 
  • Permanent: a lifelong commitment of love
  • Exclusive: the husband and wife are for each other and no one else
  • Life giving: husband and wife are open to the having of children, a sharing in God's work of creation

All information and certificates are recorded to ensure that we follow Church Law. It is used in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulations of the Data Protection Act 2018. Please read the Privacy Policy on the Home Page.

In order to comply with Civil Law, couples need also to see the Civil Registrar to give notice of their intention to marry and to receive a Marriage Schedule, which must be given to the church beforehand and without which no marriage may happen.
