Deacons and priests of the Celtic Christian Church respect Marriage as the act and commitment of the couple involved, and, as such, we act as an official Witness to the public exchange of vows (representing the Church and the State). As such we declare a couple married publicly. We do not impose our religious belief upon anyone, nor do we expect or demand any couple to engage in a Christian Marriage. Our Faith teaches that God is Love. Therefore, we believe that the very Love between the two people who are marrying is, in itself, the very holiness of Marriage, regardless of religious creeds or affiliations. For that reason we can and do witness non-religious weddings as well as weddings within the Christian Church. God IS Love. If Love is genuine, it is part of the life of God.
In addition to legal registration, all weddings witnessed by deacons and priests of the Celtic Christian Church are recorded in our records for future reference. We issue either secular or religious Marriage Certificates suitable for display, as requested by the couple.
Marriage is a serious and sacred relationship between two people. Yet a public marriage is also within a given society (secular &/or religious), and because we are committed to the well-being of our society and all in it, we are committed to helping those marriages which we witness to succeed. Therefore, if desired, we offer pre-marital preparation (including counseling). We also make a commitment to be available, as far as possible, to the couple after the marriage, should they desire the service of a priest or marriage counselor.
