I am recently engaged and just beginning the wedding planning process. My fiance and I were both brought up Catholic and would like to get married in a Catholic church. However, between my research and word of mouth it sounds like you have to jump through hoops to get married in NOLA catholic churches. Yes, we were both born and raised Catholic but we havent really been active in going to church or anything like that (at all- i know terrible!) Anyways, I would love to get married in a beautiful hisotric new Orleans chruch but i feel like its going to be difficult to find a priest to marry us. Has anyone else had this problem or have any suggestions? I know i am not the only Catholic girl in this city that hasnt religioiusly gone to church. I also didnt realize how expensive the churches are!! Any help would be appreciated
