It dosen't matter whether you get married in a registry office or in a church, you have to legally sign the registry in both cases.
Did you really think that by marrying in a church ceremony you wouldn't be married in the eyes of the State........?
Actually did you know that pre-nups are not legal in this country, as unromantic as they are...if a couple get together with a past (baggage), it would sometimes be of great benefit to have it. The laws need to change in this country around marriage.
Yeap think I'll go talk to the priest...it's been a while I can tell you. Thanks for your replies, greatly appreciated.
Hey DavyJones, you are quite right, dont want it legal, just want the blessing I suppose...too much legal stuff if we go down state recognised route. I would like the day out, want to be hitched but don't want the legal side of things...just don't know anyone who's ever done this or even if I can get the church "on side" with the idea? Maybe I have to go ask to find out. I've googled but nothing came up, maybe my search words weren't great...
Correct as far as I know. Unless the couple also went for a state annulment.I may be wrong in this but I think that in pre divorce Ireland , if one was granted a church annulment, then in the eyes of the church , one was free to marry again in the Catholic church even though one was still married in the eyes of the state
I would be surprised too. (The original poster never explicitly said Catholic Church by the way).However, I very much doubt if the Catholic church would facilitate you in what you propose.
I don't want legal wedding but do want to be hitched to my man. What u think?
This makes very little sense to me. Marriage is basically a contract but you seem to be looking for some sort of gentleman's agreement?dont want it legal, just want the blessing I suppose...too much legal stuff if we go down state recognised route. I would like the day out, want to be hitched but don't want the legal side of things...
If you are not even a regular observer of your (?) faith then I doubt that the clergy will entertain this sort of thing. And maybe not even if you are!Yeap think I'll go talk to the priest...it's been a while I can tell you.
Is this thread a joke or are you being serious?
I would not disagree with you two.I was thinking the same thing, its quite ridiculous.
Remember that it is quite possible to marry but keep your financial affairs completely separate, and that includes debts. If this is the reason, then you need advice on the finances, not some hair brained scheme of being half married.
