MARRIAGE
In order to qualify to be married at a Catholic church in Galveston, either the bride or groom must be registered and active members of our parish, or their close relatives such as parents or grandparents are registered members, or they belonged to one of the parishes of Galveston in the past, or their family has a second home on the island and worships with our community while living here.
We receive many requests from couples to have their wedding in Galveston. In order to keep the churches available for those who are members of the parish or who have a family connection to the parish we strictly adhere to this policy.
If you qualify under our policy, please contact the parish office [(409) 762 9646] and ask for the pastor.
