How did you hear about St. Mary of Redford?
*
Check all that apply
Religious beliefs of the bride and the groom
*
Mixed marriages are permitted in the Catholic Church, but are helpful to know about in advance as we prepare for the wedding. Please check all that apply. If the bride or groom is non-Catholic please explain below.
Do the couple intend to do marraige preparation classes at St. Mary of Redford?
Marriage prep classes are required to prepare for a Catholic marriage. The goal is to help the couple start their marriage on the firmest foundation possible, so that they understand the nature of the vocation they are entering into and the great help that God is offering them to live it well.
If the couple does not intend to do marriage prep classes at St. Mary of Redford, please name the parish where they plan on taking these classes. Please also include the town and state that the parish is in.
To the best of your knowledge, are the bride and the groom free to marry in the Catholic Church?
Catholics believe that a validly contracted marriage is binding for life. This means that those who have been married before may not be free to marry unless the previous marriage was for some reason invalid (for instance, one or both spouses could not freely give their consent) or the previous spouse has since died.
If you think there might be impediments (i.e. obstacles) to contracting a valid marriage, please explain briefly below.
If you suspect there may be impediments (for instance, a prior marriage that was not annulled), please talk to us. We can help you chart the course forward and also give you guidance as to whether or not there is any impediment in the first place.
Is there a particular priest you are planning on asking to say your wedding?
If so, what is the priest's name?
If both the bride and the groom are Catholic, the wedding usually takes place in the context of a Mass. At St. Mary of Redford, we offer both the new rite (in English) and the ancient form of the Mass (in Latin.) Please indicate if the couple has a preference.
What date or range of dates are you thinking of for your wedding?
If there are any questions or further comments, please write them below. Thank you for your time and we look forward to being in touch soon. God Bless!
