The Catholic Church teaches us to hold marriage as sacred. It is a gift from the hand of God, who created male and female in his image so that they may become one body. The vision of marriage for the Catholic Church is deeply rooted in the Scripture. In marriage, the love between a man and a woman is blessed by God. Marriage is a union in faith and a response to God’s call to holiness. The couple becomes the symbol of God’s love on earth. Matrimony comes from the Latin word maritare, meaning, “To wed, marry, and give in marriage.” It refers to the contract made by the couple¬ – a mutual alliance they enter into when they made the vow to support each other and be together for life. According to the Catechism of the Council of Trent,”marriage is a conjugal union between a man and a woman, both in legal status, in which they establish a perpetual and indissoluble union of lives. There are two goals in this union – procreation and education of the offspring and the mutual support of the spouses." This definition applies to two types of marriages, the one between non-baptized person and the one between two baptized persons. There former is made according to Natural Law while the latter is the marriage according to the Catholic Church.
