Can a Muslim and a Catholics get married?

I know its possible, but I'd like to know how the wedding ceremony gets carried out.Can a Muslim and a Catholics get married?
A Catholic must marry in his/her own Church and promise to raise his/her children in the Catholic faith. The wedding ceremony would be in a Catholic Church, with a Catholic priest officiating but no Mass would be held (i.e. no communion). A Imam could theoretically be present and ';give a blessing'; with the permission of the Priest.Can a Muslim and a Catholics get married?
Hello,





As far as the Catholic church is concerened, mixed marriages are allowed with the stipulation kids are raised in that faith. They will do the wedding without the nuptual mass as they did for my niece who married a guy who is totally atheist. Don't forget the priest has and must have the same civil license to marry people as does a justice of the peace.





Now a Muslim man can marry a Catholic girl and some I know married in the Church, others in a mosque. I will stress though that in Islam it is forbidden for a Muslim woman to marry a Catholic or any other non Muslim man for that matter. The repercussions for doing so are quite unpleasant; here in the west she'll be shunned by the family, friends and community; worse things can happen in more conservative theocratic states. The man must convert to Islam to solve this problem.

Yes. A Catholic and a Muslim can get married.





The wedding ceremony can be mutually decided between the two parties (including the families).





For a marriage to take place in a Church, the permission from the local Bishop is necessary. However, the Catholic Priest can bless the married couple.





I am a Catholic and we have a similar case in our Parish (Church).
Anybody can marry anybody he or she chooses to, no one can stop that...but may be their parents or else they will elope. If everything is within consent, next will be the choice on whose customs to follow. The one who is more religious than the other will get his/her way. Otherwise if both are strong, they will soon part or they will part after marriage, once they found that they cannot accept each other's differences.
Sure they can.but it will create lots of family problems for them over their children. What faith will they follow? Will the in-laws accept the other family? How will they overcome the prejudice each tradition has against the other? I don't think it would be the smartest move for either partner.
Not in the Catholic faith no because a Muslim demands to raise their children in their faith and the Catholic faith requires all children of Catholics to be raised as Catholics. So one can do it but not with the Churches blessings or in the Church.
Of course not you mentally challenged vibrator.
A fish can marry a bird but where would they live?
