Marriage

First things to think about:

To prepare for, and to get married in the Catholic Church:

At least one of you must be a baptised Catholic.

Both of you must be “free to marry” which means; neither of you has been married before in either a civil or religious ceremony unless your former spouse is now deceased or that marriage has been declared “null” by the Catholic Church.

Both of you are willing to accept children lovingly from God and to baptise them and raise them in the Catholic faith.

If you are intending that your wedding ceremony takes place in a building which is not a Catholic Church a dispensation must be applied for from the Archbishop. Before making firm arrangements for your wedding if you require a dispensation kindly speak to the priest first.

Those wishing to be married are to be prepared within the parish where they are currently resident. If neither of you worship nor are resident within this parish boundary then please approach the Catholic parish closest to you.

The Preparations for Catholic Marriage:

In order to get married in the Roman Catholic Church one of the parties (bride or groom) has to be a baptised Roman Catholic. There are four aspects of preparation that need to be completed by the couple before the day itself.

1) Civil

2) Religious

3) Practical

4) Spiritual

1) CIVIL

You will need to obtain a document giving permission for you to marry from your local Registrar’s Office: our Church is located within the London Borough of Lambeth.

At the time of writing the Council requires at least 28 full days’ notice of a marriage to grant a permission. They will issue a document to you, and you should hand this to the priest or post it through the letterbox at the Priest’s House.

2) RELIGIOUS

The Archdiocese of Southwark requires that each couple attends one evening and one full day as a marriage preparation course. The dates of forthcoming courses can be obtained from the Parish Office or directly from the course coordinators; details of diocesan courses and courses provided by Marriage Care will be provided to you by the priest. The certificates distributed at the end of the course will form part of the documentation required for marriage. It is also required that you arrange to meet with the priest initially to understand the nature of marriage and to attend to the registrations. You will also have a pastoral meeting with the priest. Lastly, you will meet with the priest to confirm readiness and plan the ceremony. The priest is obliged to confirm in writing that you understand what you are committing yourselves to and that you have both freely decided to enter into marriage.

3) PRACTICAL

There are several documents which have to be included within the necessary paperwork permitting you to be married in Church:

New Copies of your Baptismal Certificate(s) (issued within 6 months of your wedding day). We only accept the original Baptismal certificates of non-Catholics. You should contact the Catholic Church in which you were Baptised and request this.

Confirmation Certificate(s) (if the Sacrament of Confirmation is not recorded on your Baptism Certificate(s)). If you have not received the Sacrament of Confirmation, you should inform the priest preparing you for marriage.

A Declaration of Freedom To Marry for both parties: this must be witnessed by a solicitor. It usually involves a small fee, and copies of the document can be obtained by clicking here.

Certificates from the Pre-Marriage Course Attended.

4) The Ceremony

Catholic Marriage can be celebrated within or without Mass and you should talk with the priest about which is the most appropriate. Within both celebrations you are invited to choose:

Readings; ii. Hymns iii. Organ/Piano/Other Music

Dying and Funerals

When a loved one is dying, kindly get in touch with the priest immediately so he can offer the last rite. Also, get in touch with the priest if a loved one has died so that we can prepare for the funeral and offer you and your family some pastoral support during your time of grief and mourning.
