What sacraments What is required before you are married in a Catholic church?
I am Catholic and have been baptized, received communion, confession and has been confirmed. My boyfriend "has never been baptized or have any other sacraments. Does anyone know what sacraments you need so that we can get married in a Catholic church?

You name! You may also need a month or so of marriage and advice before he commits to the priest conducting the ceremony. Do not worry, it will not be Robin Williams style
Good luck and hope you have a long and happy marriage.
The two can still marry in the Catholic church, if only one of you is a practicing Catholic, but he must be willing to raise the children Catholic.
If you want to be Catholic, would have to go through baptism and confirmation, and that for these classes, in addition to the premarital classes.
If you have time, ask them to sign up for RCIA … if you want to be Catholic. That is the easiest.
But in my case, I was only baptized, and that was fine.
Your boyfriend does not have to do anything if you are Catholic and do not want to become Catholic. He just have to agree to raise the children Catholic and have to agree to do some other things depending on the church / priest.
As far as I know, who needs all the sacraments as well.
He has to be baptized and confirmed before the wedding he can make your 1st communion at the same time of the wedding can be the mother of God. He needs sacaments same if you want to be Catholic, there are some who do a mixture comminuties check your local church wedding.
To have your wedding with a mass (ie, receive Communion), his girlfriend would have made all their sacraments. Talk to your priest, you will know when RCIA (Rite of Catholic Initiation for Adults) classes begin. Traditionally, Lent is over, and all the sacraments are performed in a time during the Easter Vigil Mass on Holy Saturday.
However, it is possible (note that I said in May) may be married in his church without mass. Some priests do, some do not. Will depend on his parish, so definitely make an appointment to speak with him.
I hope that helps!
No, he does not need the sacraments. While both are Catholic and promise to raise the child Catholic, you will be able to marry in the Catholic church. In addition, you will need to take pre-cana classes that all people who marry in the Catholic church needs to take. Call your church and tell them you want to marry. You might let you talk to the priest. Also, give your diocese, a call and see if you can take pre-cana classes. Some dioceses have weekend retreats or a class that is every Thursday (as an example) a month and you go for a month.
Good luck!
you're all set. Is your girlfriend Catholic? Some of my friends are in the same situation, contact your parish priest of the church to be married and yet her normally until the priest and bishop. If he is not Catholic, but is more likely to marry you. If you are Catholic you may need to make their other sacraments in order to marry in church
From the answers seem quite varied, it is probably best to talk with the priest at the church where you plan to have your ceremony. They will have the final answer, and if there is something your boyfriend has to do, which may point him in the right direction.
Both couples should be baptized. Only one must be baptized Catholic. You really beyond the requirements, but your girlfriend 'to be baptized in any religion. No matter what.
You can not marry a Catholic without going through the sacraments. I have friends who have been married in the Catholic Church for people who were not Catholic and there were no problems. You may be asked to not have a full service, or simply not take Communion.
Does your girlfriend want to become Catholic? You could get that process started immediately.
Talk to your pastor about your needs. I am sure there will be no problem.
Congratulations and good luck!
You should have received the Sacraments of Baptism, First Communion, Confirmation, and Reconciliation before being married in the Church. Your girlfriend must enroll in the RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults) program in your parish. It's like the catechism for adults and for Catholics who have not received the Sacraments and for people who want to convert to Catholicism. The best thing to do is talk to your priest, but do it soon because RCIA is a long process.
I also recommend the action meeting. It is a large, church-sponsored retirement engaged couples.
