Why am I having such a hard time dealing with the fact we might marry in a Las Vegas wedding chapel instead of
September 29th, 2009
I know that God is everywhere, but my fiance picked a Las Vegas wedding chapel, and has told all of his family and friends that we will marry there, and I would prefer to marry in a church. Do other Christians have the same opinion that weddings should be performed in a house of worship?
HI
I don’t think it matter where you make your vows the important thing to God is that you stick to them and no matter where you got married God still sees it as legitimate.

Sweetie, it’s OK. I was married in a wedding chapel in Vegas, and the ceremony was done by a retired pastor.

Because a Las Vegas wedding cheapens and makes the whole institution of marriage a pathetic and hideous joke! Don’t do it!

Some people really do have a problem with that, some don’t. I think what’s important is what you want. Clearly you have an issue with Las Vegas. If you don’t feel you can have a voice in where the ceremony is performed, where will your voice be in the marriage? You are equal before God and he is instructed to love and respect his wife. If he is running over you now, it will only get worse. Get some premarital counseling before you say I do in any location.

I think the main problem here is that you don’t like the idea. If you don’t like it, talk to your husband-to-be. If you start accepting things like this without saying anything your marriage is not starting in the best way. Be open and tell him that you want your marriage in a different place.

umm…you might want to reconcider who your getting hitched to if the religion thing is already coming up like this.
do both. Get married in a church later, I know couples who do this.
me personally I see myself getting married in a very informal ceremony.

A wedding ought to be performed in a church and by a priest. Otherwise, it is not a true marriage in the eyes of God.

You know, I am worried for you. If marrying in a Church, as opposed to a chapel in Las Vegas is important to you, there may be other issues about spirituality, if You believe in the same things, how you will raise your children. These issues can be a wedge in the marriage if the two of you do not come to a real agreement and not just one of you giving in to the wishes of the other. You will certainly still be married in the Eyes of God and everything may be fine, but if having your wedding preformed by a Priest/Pastor, and blessed before an alter of God is important to you, than you and he must talk. A lot!
