My partner and I are getting married next year(not in a church) and he doesn’t think that a marriage counts unless it’s on a spiritual leave as well as legal. Basically he wants a religious person to preform the ceremony. Now due to several different reason neither of us were christened as children and we are getting told that due to this they won’t marry us. I have come up with a solution but I want to know if it counts. What if we got a celebrant that is affiliated with the church. Would this count in Gods opinion?
