The Sacrament of Matrimony in Catholicism is a sacred covenant between a baptized man and woman, signifying their lifelong commitment to each other and to God. This sacrament not only unites them as one flesh but also provides grace to love as Christ loves the Church. To prepare for Matrimony, couples typically undergo pre-marital counseling, participate in a marriage preparation program, and reflect on their relationship and faith, ensuring they understand the sacramental nature of their union.
The greatest thing you can do to prepare for the Sacrament of Marriage is to prepare spiritually, and so it is required that you meet with the Parish Priest at least six months before your wedding date, and discuss what preparations need to be done, and what are the rquirements for its valid celebration.
