between two Catholics or a Catholic and a non-Catholic can be arranged with the help of the Parish Priest even if the couple are marrying in another Catholic Church. Catholics are expected to marry in a Church, if the marriage has taken place in a registry office a ceremony of Convalidation (commonly called a blessing) is needed for the marriage to be regarded as a valid sacrament. Couples need to provide evidence of Catholic baptism (a recent copy of the baptism certificate is needed) and that they are free to marry. If marrying in St Winefride’s the local registrar needs to be consulted. The Parish can provide an organist and florist.
