To have my marriage recognised by God does it HAVE to be held in a church?

I want a very small wedding with little or no guests! I would be happy to be married in the registry office however I have been informed that the marriage would not be recognised by God, So can I assume the wedding will have to take place in a church? is there any where else it can be held?To have my marriage recognised by God does it HAVE to be held in a church?
Recognised by God?? If you believe that then might I suggetst you get married in an Asylum!!To have my marriage recognised by God does it HAVE to be held in a church?
I think someone has confused the notion of your marriage not being sanctioned by the church with it not being recognized by God. The wedding is simply a ceremony, but the marriage is the commitment. God recognizes all marriages. But for a particular denomination to recognize it formally, the marriage would have to be performed by an ordained minister of the church. Trust me -- God will know if you get married in a registry office! And I don't blame you for wanting a small, simple wedding. I've seen enough of ';Bridezillas'; to know wedding planning leads to insanity!
To my knowledge, there is only one Christian church that believes that marriage can be bound in heaven as it is on earth. I do not know if the Jews still believe that a woman is the wife of her first husband forever (not counting divorce). God will be happy that you married legally and lawfully. Otherwise, one church is as good as another, and so is a justice of the peace. Look for the one church where people can live happily ever after with their beloved spouses.
Marriage is really an admission to both the secular authorities and the public that you want to co-habit with a person of the other sex.


It is making it PUBLIC.


Which in turn imposes a responsibility on yourself to do the right thing...


look after your wife or husband, look after any children by way of a home, food and schooling.


You are NOT married if you go through a church service and do not comply with the secular authorities...
Well if you are a Christian then please understand that Marriage is a Sacrament. This a covenant between three and not two. God, you and your spouse. It is not about recognition but about involvement.





When you marry in church, you involve God into the relationship and you become co-partners in the procreation process he started long ago and invites you to take an active part alongside Him.





In the end, it is whether you want His involvement or you don't. From an experience point, it sure is fun when He is along. It's your call.
God is just as much in the registry office as He is in a church- if you acknowledge God and worship Him, He dwells in you. The temple of the Holy Spirit cannot be built by human hands. It does not have to take place in a church for God to bless and recognize a marriage.
No, you don't have to get married in a church. But to be legally married you do have to make application in a courthouse for a marriage license.
GOD IS EVERYWHERE HE LIVES IN YOUR HEART AND IN HEAVEN A CHURCH IS A BUILDING WHERE WE PRAISE AND WORSHIP GOD.IF GOD IS EVERYWHERE AND YOU HAVE REPENTED OF YOUR SINS.GOD PROMISES US HE WILL ALWAYS BE WITH US .SO YES HE WILL RECOGNIZE YOUR MARRIAGE WHERE EVER IT TAKE PLACE.
Don't take any chances! Get married in a church, otherwise, God might be too busy to notice. After all, he has a lot of God-things to take care of, like appearing in a cheese sandwiches and landing airplane in rivers.

Who does anyone on earth think they are to tell you God's opinion? (including the Pope)





God is omnipresent, I personally think that as long as it is a serious marriage with correct principles etc, there is no real problem.
If your wedding plans aren't your wedding plans, then they're someone else's.





Follow your heart.
Yes. Otherwise how will God know? It's not like he's Santa Claus or something and can see everything you do at all times.
god isnt real anyway so it doesnt matter
depends if he/she/it gets an invite.
you dont have to be matrried in a church,and who ever told you that are wrong,you can be married in the middle of a forest or on a hill top.you see its not the place wgere ypu get married its the reason you get married.and you pledge to god that you will honor your spouse and never forsake them,god knows all and the promis you make to god is whats important.but you should have a regesterd licence to make it legal in the eyes of the law,and thats rightly so
