Thank you so much for taking the time to read this.
So my fiance and I currently live in WV while I'm going to school and will be here for 4 more months. In July, we will be moving so I can do rotations. Our wedding date is October 5, 2018. It's super sentimental and I was surprised to get time off school to get married on this date (otherwise we'd be waiting at least another 3+ years). The problem is, the Catholic Church here in WV is 45 minutes away and they've been playing phone tag with me since November. Their deacon who was doing the pre-cana left and now someone finally returned my call...and they need 6 months for the prep. I explained I'm moving 5 hours away and they said that I should set it up with my future church. Checked that. 6 months. July to October is not 6 months. I called them and asked if they'd need that time since I'm not actually marrying in their church and they said to check in once I move there.
Well, that's a little too close of a time frame for me. My fiance's home parish stated that they really won't be able to do anything since my drivers license reads I live in WV (I really did it for the cheaper car insurance honestly).
Side note: we are getting married on the day my great-grandparents were married and we were trying to get married in the church his grandparents (and most of his family) were married.
I know this is a long read, so thank you.
