Can we get married in a church?

It totally varies and depends on the church and the pastor marrying you.

In some churches, this would be an automatic no. Others would gladly welcome it without hesitation. Call around and ask. Whatever you do, just be honest with them and don't lie or try to hide anything.

Yes, you should be able to marry in a church, but it depends on which church your fiance belongs to.

If he is Catholic, then the Church would certainly want the two of you to marry and bring your relationship into a point of more stability, especially since you will have a baby soon. You would have to take all the premarital training (which sets you up for a solid, healthy marriage), and that takes a minimum of six months, so you can't expect to have something quick.

If he is not Catholic, then he needs to consult with his pastor to see what is possible. Some preachers will marry you privately because of the indiscretion of premarital sex, others will let you have the big princess wedding. You're just going to have to ask.

As far as cost goes, that varies wildly. You can actually marry in a Catholic church for a very low cost - $20 or something like that - if you don't have candles or the organist or altar servers and so forth. On the other hand, if you add in those things and if you want to use other parts of the church (dressing room, hall, kitchen, etc), the cost will go up depending on what you want.

It is really up to the minister who marries you. When i got married the minister at my local church would marry anyone but the new one wont marry people that are divorced which i now am. I find this very unfare as it was my ex husband that broke his vows not me so why should i be punished by not being able to marry again in my local church, anyway (rant over lol) as long as it is the first marriage for both of you i don't see any problem, it shouldn't matter that you haven't been christened (i never have been either) or pregnnt and as far as the cost we were asked to make a donation to the church, there was no fixed fee (we gave £100). Give Your local minister a phone but i don't think there will be any problem.

Good luck with the baby and your upcoming wedding

It all depends on the pastor of the church!! i had a difficult time finding a pastor because we lived together this was in 2006 how crazy huh? but you'll just have to call churchs until you find one that will do it, some of the smaller churches may be more willing to do it though, and it doesnt really matter if your fiance has been christened, if you know anyone that personally knows a pastor that could maybe do it for you at a different location (your home or the park) that would be an option, as far as charge? that all depends on the pastor too we payed 125.00 but i called churches that wanted 750!!! good luck to you and best wishes!! congrats on the new baby also!!

first of all a Methodist Church isn't a Catholic Church The Wesley bros John and Charles formed the roots of the Methodist Church interior the mid to overdue 1700's. considering that that ingredient many adjustments have taken place and extra with reference to the popular United Methodist Church as a results of fact this is a Christ based church they could be assuming which you're Baptized and hence say this based basically on assumption it would be a stable theory to ask whether it is needed in the previous the marriage. it is an common count to do and the Methodist Church sprinkles i've got self belief. this is a provider in which you're taking accountability for behaving in a Christian or Christ based way.and have your previous sins symbolically washed away.and grow to be "marked" as Christs very own perpetually. A Christian marriage is one based in Christian concept and doctrine and sanctioned by utilising any Christian faith accessible, while a civil marriage only meets the requirement of the regulation. As to the kneeling, all Christians could experience delicate to kneel at any time they are being blessed or praying, as that symbolically represents submission to the want and style of Christ/God/ Holy Spirit additionally commonplace as a results of fact the Holy Trinity of (God the father, God the son, God the Holy Spirit.) All religions have the ceremonial types and this might seem to be theirs. in case you do no longer comprehend and understand approximately this faith and plan to be married in that faith you're able to easily ask to be recommended as to their ideals and cannons. i'm useful they may be satisfied to help you. it is mostly a stable subject to ask God/ Christ into the marriage and not only to the marriage.faith can flow mountains.

since you speak of christening are you looking to get married in a catholic church? If the answer is yes they frown on premarital sex and pregnancy but getting married while pregnant has been done for at least the last thousand years or so.

If your a member of the congregation it's sometimes free of charge but if not it depends on the church. Talk to your local priest or minister and he will tell you.

Also you and your boyfriend will have to confess or whatever it's called to become official members of the church before you marry.

If you get married in a nondemonational church non of this is a problem all you will need to worry about is the price.

Your pregnancy should not affect whether you can be married in church. My sister and her partner got wed when she was 6 months pregnant ,and that was in a Catholic church ! You will probably find that the priest/vicar will want you to go to church for a period before you get married. It's not a deal breaker, in fact in can be very useful. Church ceremonies must be preceded by having banns called. This is just the priest/vicar announcing that you and your intended plan to get married and asking for anyone present who knows why you should not be lawfully wed to come forth. The banns have to be called three times (usually on consecutive Sundays prior to the wedding) in both your parish church and that of your partner. When I was going through this, the priest nearly forgot the banns on the third Sunday - which would have been a tad embarrassing as we were due to get married the following week. Luckily we were in church and were able to remind him before the end of the service.

Cost of a church wedding ? Um. my local one charges £130 for the basic ceremony, but if you want a choir, flowers and bells they are extra. I'd get a date fixed pdq. You might have left it a bit late if you want a wedding in the spring (April / May) as this is a very popular time. You could probably find somewhere in Jan/Feb, but that doesn't give you a lot of time to organise everything else.

Good luck

Most churches will be delighted to support you in your plan to provide a stable family life for your child. The Episcopal church, United church, United Methodist Church, and Evangelical Lutheran Church are all mainstream churches with a strong reputation for tolerance and compassion.

The issues will not be with whether or not you are pregnant, but with whether or not you actually respect the sacred aspect of the sacrament of marriage. Many brides choose a church wedding so that they can have a "stunning venue" -- a motive which rather disrespects the holiness of the occasion. But the minister will meet with you and find out what you want and help you plan the wedding, and I think you will find yourself pleasantly surprised by how understanding these professionals are.

You could get married in a church however I'd consider it very carefully, a lot of people who do not believe in God marry in a church and are effectively starting off their married life with a lie.

Why on earth would you care if you got married in a church? Obviously, you don't have a church to call your own so why bother? It's a tad late for that, no? Don't waste your time "calling around" - just call the courthouse or look on Craigslist for a "minister" that is ordained just to do those kind of weddings.
