Girls getting married in church...

Our preist told us, as a NY requirement to get married in a church we need to obtain a Cert for Reglious Services. Has anyone else heard of this? He said we get it at the same place where we would get the marriage cert.

So does this mean we need 2? The cert for religious svcs & the regular marriage cert?

THANKS!

We have only had 1 class so far, our second was canceled b/c for the snow storm a few weeks ago. So far so good. I felt a little hostily from one for the female leaders when she found out we already had a baby. But what can you do when she tried to say something I just said she was our gift from a God and a true blessing and that shut her up. I guess you get that when you are dealing with very 'Traditonal' people.

Never heard of it. Are you sure they're not talking about certificates of baptism and confirmation?

when you are done with pre cana they give you a certificate so that may be it.

Same here. We were married in a Roman Catholic Church.

Is your Priest from outside of NY and performing the ceremony in NY? My priest is from NJ and has to get Certification to perform the ceremony here in NY. maybe thats what he was talking about. if so- thats up to him to do, not you.

Thats the only thing i can think of.

Well the situation is this...I got laid off from work, and then I found out I needed surgery, but since I was out of work I had no insurance. So fiance and I went to city hall to be civally married so I was able to go under his insurance (we checked w the church first and they said it was fine). So 'technically' we are married through the courts right now, but now they are talking about this cert for a religious ceremony......

ughhh just confusing and probably got to take another day off from work and go to the marriage office & find out...

but thanks girls!!
