Marriage and Confirmation

[Chasingcars]

My partner and I are getting married next April, and wondered if, because he has not been confirmed if this will be a problem or prevent us getting married in our local church where we both attend regulary? Didnt even think of it before and just thought its worth checking!!

Well you could ask the next time you go.

I think you just have to be baptised. As Octavius suggested you could ask. It's not a daft question.

Congratulations

They dont ask for Confirmation papers only Baptismal certs.

Some churches just want to see a cheque.

Thanks everyone, the church has already had our deposit cheque and the only thing we were asked if we had been married before and if we live in the parish. It would worry me to ask next time we go to church and then find out it is a problem, or later down the line when they need to see official papers when nobody from the Church mentioned it before! Surely they have some responsibility to ask the right questions now rather than nearer the time when it could be an issue!!?
