Does anyone know about the legalities of first marriages/divorce when it comes to the marriage license?
Original post by sarahradio5
For those of you who were previously married - or whose fiance's were previously married...
what did your church require? We actually told my priest that my FH wasn't married before (because he wasn't married in a church before), but we're afraid because apparently the marriage license will rat us out.... it will say that it's his second marriage!
Any suggestions?!?!

FH was divorced, but never married in a church. Our priest wanted to see the actual divorce papers before he would agree to doing the ceremony for us. Better to be honest about the whole thing. Good luck!!!
Our church would want to see 'proof' that the marriage 'wasn't in a church'. How do you prove that?!?!?!
Hi Sarah!!
I think she was saying that YOUR church would need to see the divorce papers. It has nothing to do with not being married in a church the first time. Good luck hun
