Marriage


Congratulations on your engagement! We look forward sharing your special day with you. Contact the Parish Office at 330-928-2173 to discuss arrangements with a priest before setting a wedding date.  Please plan to begin your preparation for marriage at least 8 to 12 months before your proposed wedding date.


Any registered parishioner of St. Joseph Parish may be married here. If you are not registered here you must receive permission from the Pastor of the Parish where you reside. At least one of the parties must be a practicing Catholic. A practicing Catholic is defined as someone who attends Mass weekly and receives the Sacraments regularly. If you have been away from the Church for a while, this could be an excellent opportunity to renew your commitment to your faith. The marriage policies of St. Joseph Parish are in conformity with the norms established by the Catholic Diocese of Cleveland.
