Marriage

 

Your wedding day is something people dream of and plan for with great enthusiasm. We try to offer not just a beautiful venue and God's blessing on your new beginning, but also the tools to give your marriage the best possible start

Weddings usually need to be arranged with between twelve and at least three months notice.

Book an appointment with the Parish Priest or come along to the Church on Saturdays between 11am - 12pm.

Parish Boundaries

Please click here to use 'A Church Near You' to check which Parish you live in.

Normally a couple can be married as long as one of them resides in the parish in which they live or where they are already a regular member of the congregation. However sometimes people have special family links with a church and if that is so for you, then by checking with the Priest this may still be possible.

You will still need to see the Priest of the Parish in which you, your partner or you both live to arrange reading of Banns and obtain a Banns certificate from that Parish.

For those that have been divorced

In this Parish, the Priest will marry those who have had their previous marriage dissolved, but you will need to discuss this with the Priest and ensure that you take along the original copy of the Decree Absolute.
