The Sacrament of Marriage is a visible sign of God’s love for His Church. Through this sacrament, a man and woman enter into a lifelong covenant with one another and receive the grace needed to grow together in faithful, self-giving love. Christian marriage reflects the love of Christ for His Church and calls spouses to support and sanctify one another throughout their lives.
Couples preparing for marriage at St. Joseph participate in marriage preparation designed to strengthen important skills such as communication, conflict resolution, decision-making, and financial management. The Diocese of San José also offers marriage preparation retreats that include the required Natural Family Planning (NFP) Intro Session.
Couples interested in getting married at St. Joseph should complete the Marriage Preparation Inquiry Form to begin the process and receive additional information.
Please note: Submitting an inquiry does not reserve or confirm a wedding date. All intended wedding dates at St. Joseph must be confirmed by the Parish Office based on availability.
