**your husband, who is not Catholic, will technically not be a godparent, but a “Christian witness” to the baptism. **

This answers one of the questions I have always had about mixed marriages being godparents.

I don’t know. My wife and I are both Catholic, but we were married by a JP. However, we were our nephew’s godparents, and the Church didn’t blink an eye (though, they may not have asked us if we had been married in the Church; I think they just asked if we were legally married).

I presume that you’ve been informed that if your marriage is not recognized by the Church, you are not able to receive the sacraments.

Living in a Josephite civil marriage my wife and I would encounter no problems receiving the sacraments. But I'm not confirmed and would not be unless it was wholly within the purview of the FSSP, etc.
