Weddings

Getting Started:

• (Step 1) – If you are a member of our St. John Vianney Parish, please call and make an appointment with Deacon Dennis to begin the preparation process.
• (Step 2) – A date cannot be entered into the calendar until you have completed the Pre-nuptial Inquiry (PNI).  Remember, that if you are a resident of the Diocese of Phoenix, a wedding can be scheduled nine months or more after your initial appointment with Deacon Dennis.
• (Step 3) – Once a date is entered you have 2 weeks to turn in your deposit. Until you turn in the deposit, you will not have a reserved date.

• (Step 1) – If you do not reside in St. John Vianney parish, please contact your local parish to begin the marriage preparation process.
• (Step 2) – Once a date is entered you have 2 weeks to turn in your deposit and a letter from your parish/pastor indicating that you have begun the marriage preparation process in your parish/diocese. Until you do both these things, you will not have a reserved date.
• (Step 3) – We also need a letter from your pastor/parish indicating that you have begun the marriage preparation process in your parish/diocese. 
• (Step 4) – Your completed marriage folder must be received by the Tribunal of the Diocese of Phoenix, one month prior to your marriage. If this does not happen, then you will have to postpone your wedding.  If you are traveling to Sedona from another country your completed file must be forwarded 60 days in advance of your wedding.
