Marry A Catholic priest with someone in a vineyard?
One of my best friends just got engaged, and she wants to get married in a vineyard. She is a practicing Catholic, and has been attending the same church since birth. We were talking about their plans for ceremony (more like fantasy at this point), and says she really wants to get married in a vineyard. She wants to get married by their pastor, but the two of us have heard that a priest will not marry you out of a church. Is there anything I can do to make it more likely that the priest will marry her in a vineyard?
If after the ceremony at the vineyard is not an option, it would be possible to have a small, family only wedding in the church, then the priest "fake" ceremony in the vineyard? I told him it was probably less likely to just get married in a vineyard (priest know that will simulate a sacrament?).
- Agnostic to marry non-practicing Roman Catholic with a Catholic family?
- My boyfriend is a divorced Catholic Want us How I Married A Priest to marry us off?
- A Catholic priest knows Marry Me If I Do not Believe?
- Whence With Celibacy Catholic priests and nuns come from? Why not marry?
- How does a wedding given by a Catholic deacon differs from one given by a priest?
Honestly never heard of a Catholic priest to perform a wedding outside a Catholic church.
She could only ask the priest to do so. If he says no he can still have a small ceremony in the church and then hire a magistrate to preside over the ceremony of vineyard.
You'll have to go through a magistrate OT obtain a marriage license, however, the priest can not help with that, but since receiving the sacrament of marriage is a big deal for Catholics who may have the ceremony in a church and then having the legal ceremony in the vineyards with a Magistrate.
I would ask the priest first and then think about making a church ceremony with a justice of the peace as a plan B.
She must choose one or the other. Anyone who gets married by the priest at the church or to marry by a judge or an independent minister who is the vineyard. You can also get married by an independent minister in the vineyard, then go separately to the church on your marriage blessed by the priest. But the priest does not make a false ceremony in the vineyard. She has to choose one.
It could also have their reception in the vineyard, although the ceremony were elsewhere.
Just yesterday met with my pastor. It also works for the cardinal of the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston. His exact words were that 99.99% of the time there are no exceptions to the rules. With confidence can only be approved by the Bishop. Basically it is rare. Chances are that your friend will not be allowed to marry outside the church, especially if there is no good reason. And the idea of finding a priest to "fake" a sacrament, honestly, is not good. The priests are insulting.
When I was married I wanted to get married in Cyprus. I contacted the Irish Catholic priest in the area and said (as peculiar as it may seem) that once you have a roof, that is. nope ca or something to the effect that it is possible. Do not see why the rules are changed only because it is a different country. Get to talk to the priest.
No. A Catholic priest will not marry someone outside your church building, because it is not considered valid in the eyes of God. They will not bend that rule for anyone.
They have to talk to the priest and see if it is an option. Maybe they could get married in church and have a blessing in the vineyard.
Its up to the individual priest, no doctrine ro standard indicates that Catholics can not marry in their faith outside the church
Yes!
No, it is possible, but not a solution that will work very well.
The reason Catholics can not marry, as long is because Holy Matrimony is a sacrament for us, and the sacraments should take place on sacred sites. There are some sacred outdoor spaces to punish the Mass (and therefore would be good for marriage), but only a random place, because it is quite not enough.
What we can do is have a very private wedding in the church - maybe the morning of the big event - where the priest will marry before any witnesses. Then you can have a second event, it would be technically a renewal of vows. Not a "fake".
If she is a practicing Catholic, you'll want a mass wedding, like her family and definitely not allowed to leave the church. Some priests thought to carry out a marriage ceremony in a respectable if they know the couple, family. You really need to ask your priest as soon as possible. Most priests suggest the religious ceremony followed by a "blessing" in the vineyard. (Incidentally, the marriage license issued by the local licensing agency for all the celebrants - JP, priests, rabbis, etc. ofificnats only sign and that includes priests and magistrates.)
If she wants out then you will have a difficult time to convince the bishop. This type of immunity must come from him and not the priest. And the Catholic Church does not like outdoor weddings, because people feel that the ceremony be distracted by stupid things like the sun or dirt in the eyes or even the weather. If she wants it inside then has to explain why you want there and not in the church.
If your boyfriend is not Catholic then you can apply for immunity to have the wedding in the vineyard, but on the inside. Probably not be allowed to have mass though. If the groom is Catholic, again, they need a good reason why I do not have the wedding in their church and again, it passes through the Bishop did the priest.
As for the ceremony of the "false". I do not know any priest willing to simulate a sacrament, but I know some would launch an attack on the idea: p instead of pretending the ceremony why not ask if you can renew vows in the vineyard. Much less drama.
But my suggestion would be honest to get married in the parish church and then having the reception at the vineyard. Especially as a practicing Catholic and I think it would be nice to be married in the church I grew up in. It's something I would have liked.
No, a priest can not marry a couple outside a church. I went to Catholic school all my life and married in a Catholic church and they know for sure.
Yes, if it meets the right girl
