remarriage in the church?
|
|
|
I really want to mary my partner of 4 years, but I have been married before.
I was divorced 6 years ago but would like to marry my partner in church as it would be her first wedding.
Can I be married in a church again?

Most protestant churches will conduct 'second' weddings once you meet the requirements (if any) of the congregation and their pastor. You may want to check with a number of local congregations and get details on each one - - compare those to your expectations - - then choose one that meets your needs. If that does not work and you do not have a church connection, you may want to consider renting a chapel. Many historical societies have historic church buildings that are rented to the public. Most will even have a list of officiants willing to conduct the wedding celebration. If you provide more information about your faith tradition, perhaps I can be of further help.

The best person to ask is the religious leader of your church. Some
churches are more liberal than others regarding 2nd weddings.
All the best,
