The Catholic Church has very high regard for the sacrament of Holy Matrimony. Matrimony or marriage and family are the foundation of the Church. We at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, are pleased to offer you practical and liturgical guidance in your preparation for this very special day.
It is our desire to provide not only the facility and services that will ensure a beautiful wedding but also the spiritual nurturing and nourishment you will need during your planning process, on your wedding day, and throughout your married life.
Registered and active members of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, who are free to marry in the Catholic Church, are welcome to celebrate their marriage at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Church. This is true, even if one party is neither a member nor a Catholic if that party is also free to marry in the Catholic Church.
Preparation for the sacrament of Holy Matrimony should be started at least 6 months before the intended wedding date. Other requirements include meeting with the priest, deacon or Director of Faith Formation, marriage preparation classes, and the completion of several documents.
