From the linked article:

"and they wed in a Catholic church upon his return in 1970. Both were 26."

But I didn't think you could wed in a Catholic church, unless you converted?

No .. you can wed, but you can not have a high mass said at the wedding and you have to promise to raise your children in the catholic teaching

With that said .. some parishes are more strict on church rules then others

Nopers! A Catholic can marry a Protestant if they promise not to deny the Catholic's right to practice his or her religion.
