Matrimony

Matrimony

The sacrament of Matrimony establishes an exclusive and lifelong bond between the spouses. God himself seals the consent of the spouses.

Those intending to get married should :
  1. Complete the Marriage Preparation Course organised by the Diocese, at least six months before marriage.
  2. Meet the Parish Priest at least 6 months before the wedding to have enough time for the necessary documents to be processed and check the availability of the Church for the Nuptial Mass.
Marriages are not allowed in the Church during HOLY WEEK as well as on the 23rd, 24th and 25th December.
Marriages during LENT, especially on Sundays of Lent, are STRONGLY DISCOURAGED and to a lesser degree during the season of Advent.
NUPTIAL MASSES : Can be celebrated during a scheduled Mass or a separate private Mass.
Timings: Normally at 9:15 am or 4 pm on Sundays. Weekdays at 4 pm and Saturdays at 3:30 pm.
