Hello everyone!
I am recently engaged. I was raised Catholic and everyone on my side of the family is Catholic however my fiance is non-catholic. His brother also happens to be a preacher and I think it would be really special for his brother to marry us, but he is non-catholic also.
I should mention that I am not a very religious person, I only attend church if I am back home with my family and it is a holiday.
I currently live in Virginia and my dream wedding is to be married outside with the mountains here as a backdrop, not in a church.
I am just very torn because I would love for my fiance's brother to marry us and I would rather not be married in a church but I am Catholic. Is there anyway to make this work so I can have everything I am looking for and still make it okay by the Catholic church?
Like I said I currently live in Virginia and the priest whose masses I grew up attending is back in New Jersey where I grew up, but I am not even very close with him so I do not have any priests that I know well that I could talk to about this.
Thank you all so much in advance!
