The Catholic Church presumes that all marriages of non-Catholics are valid on their face unless an annulment process determines otherwise.

Can the fact that the marriage was not witnessed by a Priest be grounds for anullment? Becky

Dear PNAMBC,

"Can the fact that the marriage was not witnessed by a Priest be grounds for anullment? Becky"

Only if one of the parties was Catholic at the time of the marriage.

Only between Catholics, not between non-Catholics.
