Catholic Weddings

Catholic weddings are considered to be religious and are led by a Catholic Priest. Much paper work will be required by both you and your partner. You both must be single status, as the Catholic Church will not allow for divorced people to marry unless the former spouse was not Catholic. The Priest will come to your hotel, villa or church to perform the wedding ceremony.

This ceremony will be legal by religion only. Any couple that wishes to be legally married must have the civil ceremony performed by the Civil Minister from the Indonesian Government on the same day as the religious ceremony.
