Catechism Paragraph

¶ 1622

"Inasmuch as it is a Sacramental action of sanctification, the Liturgical Celebration of Marriage . . . must be, per se, valid, worthy, and Fruitful." 123 It is therefore appropriate for the bride and groom to prepare Themselves for the celebration of their marriage by receiving the Sacrament of Penance.
