Holy Matrimony
The Sacrament of Marriage is a covenant, which is more than a contract. A covenant always expresses a relationship between persons. The marriage covenant refers to the relationship between the husband and wife, a permanent union of persons capable of knowing and loving each other and God. The celebration of marriage is also a liturgical act, appropriately held in a public liturgy at church. Catholics are urged to celebrate their marriage within the Eucharistic Liturgy. Diocesan policy requires a period of at least six months prior to the wedding for a couple to complete their necessary preparation and paperwork. Please do not set a reception date until you meet with a priest.
No weddings are scheduled on Sundays or Holy Days. For more information please contact the office at 630.668.0918 x 0
