The Lutheran church is very dear to my FI. Although he is confirmed Catholic, he was baptized Lutheran and still attends services regularly. He has just told me that he feels very strongly about getting married in his grandparent's church, which is also the church his mom was raised in and his parents were married in. He loves this church and the pastor; there is no Catholic church he has an emotional connection like this to. But it is a Lutheran church. I told him I wouldn't be comfortable doing that unless we got dispensation. However, while I'm not confirmed in any church, I was baptized Catholic and he's confirmed, so I don't even know if it would be possible to get dispensation to marry in his family church.
We haven't talked to a priest yet, but I've seen so many women on here get bad info from their priests, I wanted to see if any of you brilliant ladies knew the answer. I don't want to start planning/working towards something if there's no way it can happen.
