I do not know much about this and can't seem to find much out there to help me...so I figured I'd ask here.
My fiance did not make his confirmation. I did. Would we be able to get married in a church?
Thanks for the help.
These posts are a GREAT HELP!
I'm sorry to tell you this but no you can't. They will let him take the classes and make his confirmation. The church usually has 1 or 2 confirmation classes for adults a year. Hopefully if being married in the church is important to you, he can do it before your wedding date.
That is what I thought. Thank you!!!
Well, my fiance and I are Catholic. I never made my Communion or Conformation and my fiance has. A Catholic Church in Hauppauge said we were able to get married even though I didn't. They said as long as one of you did. We both still needed to go to PreCana classes though. If you don't have a particular church in mind, you should call around. We did this at first, but then decided to get a Catholic Priest to marry us at our reception hall. We live out of state so we wouldn't have a church of our own to go to. Definitely call and ask. It is possible. Good luck!
My fiance didn't make his communion and we are having a full mass in a roman catholic church.
I want to tell you that my FI and I are getting married in a Catholic Church and he is Protestant. They never asked about Confirmation. You both need to be baptised at any church and then you both must agree that your children will be brought up in a Catholic church. They were extremely accomodating and Precana was harmless. NEVER assume anything b/c I had allot of misconceptions before looking into it. If you need more info let me know.
You definitely need to go to your church and talk to a priest or deacon. I am getting married at a Catholic church and my fiance is neither Catholic (he's Methodist)nor was he baptized. However, he had to sign a paper that said that he agrees to raise our children in the Catholic religion and that we have to attend PreCana (which we very much enjoyed). We also weren't allowed to have a mass during the ceremony. Good luck!
I too am getting married in a Catholic Church, and I haven't made my communion or confirmation. And we're going to get married in my hometown church (which I was never inside of until we met with the priest).
My husband has never been so much as baptized, like the other girls we had to sign a piece of paper saying we would raise our children catholic and we had to go to pre-cana. Piece of cake!! Good Luck!
Yes, you can, no problem whatsoever. One warning, though: make sure youre priest is on the same 'page' you are. My husband had been briefly married in college, and it was annulled. But our priest used our wedding!!!! as a occassion to discuss his disapproval. We're still considering reporting him; it lent such a sour note.
FH not Catholic, and very vocal about not wanting to be Catholic. We talked to the Priest and he seemed more impressed that my FH did not want to convert for sense of wedding, so we went to Pre CAna and have to promise the kids over
...on the church, and the priest. We went to a few different churches and the first one we went to the priest was soooo strict. He almost made me cry because my FI and I live together he said he wouldn't marry us unless I moved out and that what we were doing was wrong - and was pretty mean about it. So we ended up not getting married there and we went to another church where the priest was totally different. He did say that they don't agree with us living together before the wedding, but he realizes this is the twentieth century etc. So I think the reaction your priest will have to your fi's not making a sacrament depends on the priest and on the church.
When we were married in a catholic church , they only asked for baptismal certificates, nothing about 1st communion or confirmation ( although we both had all of the above ). My SIL just got married at the same church and they asked for her FI's confirmation records ( he was born in Ireland and the records were lost in a fire) , so go figure , I guess it depends .
