I think the question you mean to ask is ';what is said and done at a Catholic wedding?'; the marriage is what happens for the rest of their lives after the wedding. (sorry...i don't mean to be nit picky)





anyway...a Catholic wedding is an awesome event. It is the only Sacrament in the Catholic church which is never administered by a priest or deacon. The couple actually administers this sacrament to each other. The priest is merely a witness. The Church stands back in awe as the couple, in


three declarative sentences ( -1- i, jane doe, take you john smith, to be my husband. -2- i promise to be true to you in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health. -3- i will love you and honor you all the days of my life.) pledge to each other that they will be faithful to each other forever, no matter what. You are giving your life away to your spouse...and the Church stands back in Awe as a witness to this solemn commitment.
I believe that the couple ';marry'; themselves during a nuptial mass. The priest only officiates. I could be wrong about this and you may want to check it out further.
