Marriage
"Marriage is the Most Beautiful Thing God Created."
-Pope Francis
Who can be married at Our Lady of Sorrows?
If you, your family, your fiancé, or your fiancé's family is a registered member of Our Lady of Sorrows Parish you can request a wedding date. The Bishops of Michigan request a period of 6 months of preparation before the wedding.
What if my fiancé is not Catholic?
Only one party needs to be a Latin Rite Roman Catholic in order to celebrate the Sacrament of Marriage in the Roman Catholic Church.
Now that I am engaged, what comes next?
- Review the Wedding Procedure Guidelines and Marriage Prep documents below
- Complete the online Preliminary Wedding Registration Form, or print the form below and submit it to the parish office.
- Once your date is confirmed you will meet with a priest
- Prepare for life together with the Witness to Love Marriage Program
- Take part in a day-long retreat
If you have any additional questions, please call the office at 248-474-5720.
