I have heard that if you send the Pope a wedding invitation, he will send you a letter of congratulations (this is separate from a Papal Blessing).
Was wondering if anyone has sent him an invitation or was planning to do so. I found this address but feel like it's too short-
His Holiness Pope Benedict XVI
00120 Via del Pellegrino
Citta del Vaticano
Re: Inviting the Pope

FI and I are going to Rome for our honeymoon and going to the mass where the Pope blesses the newly married couples. We were told we have to be in our wedding attire, so getting my dress over there will be interesting.
Not caring about missing RSVPs because there aren't any rocks!

Our Priest had to request it through the Vatican. Inquire with your church, they know a lot more about it than I do.

You go to your Chancellor Office in the Diocese that you are in... there is a procedure and it costs about $50+ depending on the style of parchment you want... some are bigger or smaller, some have the Pope's picture, some don't... etc... but they have all the info and the form you need to fill out. I have the procedure for Dallas if you want to see...

We are also sending an invite to the President and Joe Paterno.
[QUOTE]We are sending an invitation to the Pope... FI is Republican and he said a bunch of things I would not repeat here, when I said we can email the president.

FI isn't a fan of our President either- and didn't understand why I wanted to invite him to our wedding, haha. I've heard they send you a nice congratulatory card, and regardless of whether I like him or not, I think it would be a pretty cool thing to have for our scrapbook.
Quick question...can you get a Papal blessing if your FI was baptized Methodist?
stillundecided4 Finding it hilarious you're inviting Paterno! FI's a big Penn St. fan, too. Maybe we'll invite him along with Duke's Coach K!

I like science. Here's proof.
A couple from one of our mission got married and recieved the papal blessing. They were both really involved in our church nationally and our head bishop , we don't have cardinals yet working on it, apparently spoke to the pope about their wedding. I will probably send an invite as well, but talking to the diocese or a bishop/cardinal would probably be more helpful.
