I really am not sure of the protocal in these situations. i would contact the church and speak with a priest.

I am Catholic, my FH was baptized Methodist. At my church, this was not a big deal - when you meet with the priest you will need to fill out a simple form which he will forward to the Bishop, granting you permission to be married in the Catholic Church. Hopefully, it will be as simple for you, although different churches do have different rules. Good luck!

I do not think you will have any problems. As has been said there is a simple form to fill out that clears it all up for you. I know they 'prefer' that both people be catholic, but it is not a show stopper.
