I am engaged and my fiancé and I want to take the whole premarital counseling thing that some churches offer... but the only problem is neither one of attend church... and my future father-in-law wants us to have a catholic wedding... which I don't care... my fiancé and I do not have a religious affiliation and every catholic place will make you take classes to become a catholic which I wouldn't mind its just that its over 10 months long... and our wedding is in October.. and classes don't start until then... it also seems like a lot to do for someone ( prob. Going to get some negativity here but) who doesn't believe in god... neither does my fiancé so we are just doing it solely for his dad... any suggestions on who else offers premarital counseling oter then churches... and is there a way I can become a catholic just on paper without having to jump through all the hoops so my future dad will be pleased with the wedding also... and yes... he does know that we are not religious people but my fiancés entire family is, so we want to do this to please everyone.
