Hi all!
I just got engaged a little over a week ago (yay!) and we've already begun looking at venues for the reception as well as churches for the ceremony which we hope to have next August.
My fiancé and I were both raised Catholic but neither of us can claim to be practicing Catholics. However, a Catholic wedding has kind of always been the only option in my family and it's the only way I ever imagined getting married. My fiancé is a little less adamant about the wedding NEEDING to be Catholic, but he knows that's what I want so he agreed that's the way we'll go.
I know in order to get married in the church we'll have meet with a priest and go through "counseling", etc. I live in Lancaster PA and all of the churches I've looked at seem to require we meet with a priest 9 months to a year before our wedding. I'm looking for any information/insights on what we can expect during these meetings. How many times will we have to meet with the priest? What kind of questions should we expect him to ask? We live together - will he ask about that? Will it be a problem? Will he ask more personal questions about premarital sex and contraceptives? Will we have to take any kind of "tests"? Should I be nervous/stressed about this? Any info you guys can give me would be extremely helpful!
Thanks so much!
