For those visiting this page because of a recent engagement, congratulations! Together, you have decided to begin a great journey of love. The Catholic community of Canton rejoices with you, your families, and your friends on your decision to be married. The contents of this section have been designed to help you prepare for the celebration of your wedding. Please feel free to get in touch with us with any questions you may have.
Many people will be assisting you as you prepare for the Sacrament of Marriage; they all want to help you realize a marital relationship built on self-giving love, one that helps each spouse become the best version of themselves, all while growing deeper in relationship with Christ.
Step 1: Contact the Parish Office to schedule a brief meeting with a priest or deacon.
Step 2: You will then be asked to take part in a marriage preparation program, sometimes called Pre-Cana.
Step 3: You will also meet with the parish Wedding Coordinator and Director of Music. These meetings are designed to help you prepare the actual wedding ceremony. The meeting will provide assistance on picking out readings, examples of music, and other helpful information as you plan your celebration.
Step 4: Each couple married in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts must obtain a license. You should contact the clerk in any city or town hall in the state about six weeks before your wedding regarding the proper procedure. This license must be brought to the wedding rehearsal.
The sacrament of marriage is a visible sign of God’s love for the Church. When a man and a woman are married in the Church, they receive the grace needed for a lifelong bond of unity.
