Matrimony

WEDDING INFORMATION

The Sacrament of Matrimony is a living reflection of God's love. You, as the bride and groom, mirror that image of love to all God's people as you live out this Christian vocation. Couples preparing for this vocation need a clear vision of the Sacrament of Matrimony in their lives as Christian spouses, and an orientation regarding the principle areas of family life.

We are happy to cooperate with you in the Church celebration of your wedding. We believe as you undoubtedly do, that God has a very important part in the lives of married couples, and therefore it is of the utmost worth to begin your married life with His solemn blessing.

There are three areas of sensitivity and responsibility to every wedding; the Spiritual, the Civil and the Social. The Spiritual, the Sacramental Celebration of Matrimony, is our primary concern. We reserve that to plan with you as the bride and groom. The Civil we leave to you and the State of Illinois for the license and its requirements. The Social is a continuation of the celebration, and we leave that part to you, your family and friends.
