Getting married is a blessed sacrament in the Church. It is a hope-filled time of celebrating God's grace through the love you share for one another. Your wedding day will be a very special day for you, and we want to help you prepare for it as well as we can. We also want to help you prepare, not just for the special day, but for your entire married life together. Because marriage is a sacrament in the Catholic Church, it is not only a very special moment for the two of you, but it is also a sacred event for all of us.
We need at least six to nine months time to prepare for your Sacrament of Matrimony. We encourage you to introduce yourself to the clergy and discuss your plans for marriage.
If you are interested in becomeing registered members of St. Matthias the Apostle Catholic Church, we encourage you to fill out a registration form online or at the parish office. However, it is NOT required to be a registered member to get married at St. Matthias.
