About this vendor
I'm an Independent Catholic priest. I'm available to officiate at Catholic weddings at any location in Connecticut, and surrounding areas. I also perform commitment ceremonies, elopements, and vow renewals. I perform Catholic weddings and weddings for couples of different faiths, and for those who hold no religious beliefs. I also perform inter-faith weddings. The ceremonies can take place at any location, such as a reception venue, restaurant, beach, etc. Ceremonies can be both indoors or outdoors.
I work with couples to create a wedding ceremony that's beautiful, providing readings and prayers, that meet all your needs. I accommodate those who don't belong to a specific church, but wish to have a religious ceremony nevertheless. I welcome those who are divorced, and others who are unable to be married by a Roman Catholic priest. Independent Catholics do not require an annulment. Independent Catholic weddings often fit the needs of Catholics who cannot be married in a Roman Catholic Church. If this sounds like what you might be looking for, then I would enjoy meeting with you and spend some time discussing your wedding plans.

Thank you and God bless: Father John Gorecki
