**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 presume that you’ve been informed that if your marriage is not recognized by the Church, you are not able to receive the sacraments.**
How many are there like this who should not be receiving the Sacraments?
It’s helped me for the same reason, but after some more research just now on the subject, according to Canon Law only one godparent is technically required for baptism (as the godparent is actually technically speaking the sponsor for the baby, the parents are not the sponsors) so in mixed marriages, as long as the couple understands only the Catholic of the two can be the godparent, there is no problem. The spouse of the Catholic can serve as a “Christian witness” (as FR. Z states) if he/she desires during the ceremony, but can’t be a godparent.
