Catholic wedding on the beach?

[anaderoux]

I know it is forbidden, but is anyone having or had the catholic ceremony performed on the beach?

Hi Anny...the Catholic Church will actually not allow you to get married anywhere else but the church...I already tried asking about it because I wanted to do that but its a no go...so instead I will be getting married at the Catholic church in San Jose

[MERRYME]

Our pastor in NY will be coming with us and he will be doing a special blessing on the beach... not a wedding ceremony but just enough to make my grandma happy!

 

It helped that he is very good friends with my grandma. We are paying for his travel expenses.

I think I'll do the same merryme, I really want to have a ceremony in the beach..

 

Are you having the wedding ceremony before or after that??

[MERRYME]

We are having the ceremony before the blessing so it will feel like he is blessing the union.

 

I think it is a great compromise.

[anaderoux]

and are you having it home?

[MERRYME]

I'm sorry I think you missunderstood. we are not having a catholic wedding. we will be exchanging vows and doing a civil ceremony on the beach followed by the "blessing". I think this will make veryone (grandma) feel like it is a little more meaningful.

The JW Marriott Cancun Resort & Spa/CasaMagna Marriott Cancun Resort will perform Catholic weddings at their Nuptial Gazebo. Although it's not directly on the beach, the gazebo does overlook the ocean. It's the first ocean view gazebo in Cancun authorized to perform Catholic weddings.
