I heard that in some of the smaller towns North of San Jose on the Gulf side.. the Padres are a little more lenient and are willing to accept a little donation to do so. ie. do not require the months of talks. You may want to check them out.

Ther problem is more with my church not the church down there, I contacted the father at the san jose church and he just gave me the info where the paper work goes...we are just going to have the wedding rites not a full out catholic ceremony..but i hope it all works out in the end, thanks for the advice

Really? I would have thought that your church would not have aproblem. That is one of the things that I really don't like about the Catholic church... how hard they make things for people.They can be worse than the IRS.

I know they make things so difficult...my priest yelled at me and they dont understand why were going away 2 get married instead of getting married at home...i just dont want a church wedding anymore but my parents insist...but my mom called up our priest and totally stood up 4 me it was pretty cool....she gave them sh*t saying that all their doing is turning people away

Good for your MOM!! MY grandma would have boxed his ears!!

 

It is sooo weird that they make it so hard.. and really your mom is right it just makes people not want to belong or go to church. More and more people are opting to explore other religions!

Congrats! I agree with everyone, you looked so beautiful and the red was gorgeous!!! Welcome to the married club!

Beautiful!!! The buckets/pew decorations turned out wonderfully... one would never know that it was a last minute idea.

 

I think it was great and very commendable that you took your mother and grandmother's feelings into consideration. To actually have both experiences is priceless.

 

Congrats again and thanks for sharing your review!

I know!! Happy did an incredible job. Yes, I am VERY glad that I was able to please my family and in the end it was a wonderful and meaningful moment. It felt a little more sacred that the beach ceremony- which was fun and lighthearted. Just what I wanted.

 

By the way those buckets are cheap and readily available in several sizes including large oval and round. We used the larger oval size full of ice beer & wine with some flowers as decoration. Everyone loved it.
