What You Should Know

You will be asked to take part in a marriage preparation program, sometimes called Pre-Cana. It is conducted by teams of lay people who discuss with you issues of communication, family life, intimacy, and role expectations.

Marriage Preparation

Baptism and Confirmation records (for Catholic participants) will be asked for, and a Marriage License must be obtained. 

If you are a non-Catholic Christian, you will need a copy of your Baptismal certificate.  This should be a newly furnished document from the Church in which you were baptized. 

If you were baptized or confirmed at Saint Peter's, Saint Kateri or Our Lady of Lourdes, those records must be requested at the Archdiocese of Boston.  You can email them at [email protected] or call them directly at 617-254-0100.  Please note, that if you are emailing them, you will need to provide them the contact information of the priest and the church at which you are being married.

The members of the Music Ministry congratulate you on your upcoming wedding and wish to help make your celebration a memorable one. Not only is this an important event for your family and friends, it is also an important event in the life of the Parish community here in our Collaborative.
