My wife and I were married by a judge.
I'll go let her know that "old and tired" thinks it's nothing.
No offense intended. As a Catholic Christian, I very strongly believe marriage is a sacrament. The Lord may very well be bestowing graces upon you and your wife. However, if so, it is not because you spoke your vows in front of a judge. It is because you spoke your vows to each other and meant them.
When I said I wouldn't recognize a marriage unless it was religious, I really was speaking about my own children. They knew darn well we wouldn't recognize their marriages unless and until their vows were spoken in front of a priest. To practicing Catholics, a civil ceremony only = not married.
