Children of parents who live in the parish may be eligible to be married here under certain circumstances. Their eligibility will be determined by the priest according to each individual circumstance.

Availability of any given date or month is discussed with the couple during their first interview with the parish priest. Date of marriage must be one year after their first interview. Sometimes circumstances may alter this.

Weekend courses should be discouraged unless it is the only alternative (i.e. future spouse living in a different city.) Couples who are living together or who are entering a second marriage should be directed to specialized courses downtown.

1. Only priests who are related (not close friends) to one of the persons being married can be delegated to perform a marriage ceremony here at Our Lady Queen of the World. Others may be invited to concelebrate but the parish priest must receive the vows and give the nuptial blessing.

1. A list of available musicians from the parish music ministry will be given to each couple.
   Outside musicians and singers may be hired, but must be familiar with the Catholic wedding ceremony and mass.
