Life / English man is getting married in Poland - Polish Church issue [37]

Im an English man getting married to a Polish girl. The idea is to get married in Poland. We have found a nice venue for the reception. The problem is the church.

Im English, non Catholic and I was not christened. Does anyone know are chances of being able to get married in Poland.

COuld I pretend to be Catholic or christened?? Any ideas will really help.

Thanks

Daniel

Life / English man is getting married in Poland - Polish Church issue [37]

I used to go to church (Church of England) a lot as a kid, was taken by my grandparents, but my parents never had me christened as they are not religious.

My girlfriend really wants to get married in a catholic church, 6 of her ciblings have got married at the village church. Her parents will not go to a civil wedding!

Do I have to be catholic to get married in a polish catholic church. We are ggetting mixed stories from the church there. DO I have to be christened?

thanks for your help!

Everyone!

I do really want to marry my beloved girlfriend. But I was not brought up as religious as she was. In her village church where her family really want to get married in Poland they are being funny about me not being Catholic or being christened. I will do anything to make her happy, and she and her family want to get married there.

They dont even seem to entertain a wedding there. And the whole thing is causing massive issues with her and her family... I cant help not being christened when I was a kid! nor can I suddenly become catholic!!
