Welcome, and congratulations on your
engagement!We at Immaculate Heart of Mary share your joy and look forward to the day when you will be joined together as one in the Sacrament of Holy Matrimony. We are excited to walk with you as you prepare for this next step in your journey.
The first step when preparing for marriage is to contact us. Due to the serious nature of the life-long commitment you are getting ready to make, preparation is done over a time period of 8 - 12 months. It is important that you contact us as early as possible to ensure you are able to get all the necessary preparation done in time before your wedding."The matrimonial covenant, by which a man and a woman establish between themselves a partnership of the whole of life, is by its nature ordered toward the good of the spouses and the procreation and education of offspring; this covenant between baptized persons has been raised by Christ the Lord to the dignity of a sacrament." CCC 1601
Plan on an initial 90 meeting with the Marriage Coordinator.
At this meeting:- Welcome and get acquainted in prayer in friendship
- You’ll learn about the preparation process for the Sacrament of Holy Matrimony
- Begin the necessary paperwork for your marriage file
- Provide an overview of the ceremony, fees and guidelines
- Get a tentative wedding date reserved. (Please do not put down deposits on reception venues or services until you have at least had this meeting)
For more information couples should explore the Archdiocese of Denver’s website to understand the Marriage Preparation Process and Requirements.
