Religious Ceremony
In Mexico a religious ceremony is possible only after a Mexican civil wedding. A civil wedding in Mexico is fully valid for legal purposes worldwide. However, a religious wedding without a civil ceremony is not.
Thus while a religious marriage may be of both moral value and personal significance, it has no civil or legal standing. Some documentation is required, and you will need at least one to four months to reserve the church or chapel depending on the day of the week and time of year
To be married in the church, you need to obtain many documents including one from your parish in your country of residence. Vallarta Weddings By Lana's Wedding Coordinators will provide you instructions and handle arrangements with the church upon reservation of your wedding date. There is no mass during the ceremony and it must be conducted inside a church. The church will provide a marriage certificate signed by the father of the "Parroquia"
Puerto Vallarta offers beautiful churches and chapels to celebrate such a meaningful event. Please be aware that religious (church) ceremonies in Mexico cannot be performed for people of different faiths.
