Sacrament of Marriage

We are currently booking weddings for September 2025.

Guardian Angel Cathedral is the Metropolitan Cathedral for the Archdiocee of Las Vegas, which includes all of southern Nevada, and two suffragen dioceses (Diocese of Reno and Diocese of Salt Lake). In effect, the Cathedral serves all Catholics in the States of Nevada and Utah. This presents unique scheduling requirements, which are not present in any other Catholic parish in Nevada or Utah.

With this in mind, all weddings are held at 11 AM on select Saturdays. All wedding rehearsals are held at 1 PM on the Friday immediately proceeding. We do not and cannot host weddings or wedding reheasals at any other time.

Guardian Angel Cathedral hosts weddings, provided all requirements are met at least ninety days in advance. To inquire, please click here.

We recommend that you contact your parish priest or our priest before setting any dates with reception venues. Many couples try to book a reception venue and then the church, which presents many problems.

Please know that there is no such thing as a “fast tracked wedding,” even in Las Vegas. At Guardian Angel Cathedral, we require twelve month (domestic) to eighteen month (international) lead time. All paperwork must be received to the Archdiocesan Tribunal Office a minimum of three months before your scheduled wedding, or we reserve the right to cancel. We do not expedite weddings under any circumstances.

The Metropolitan Tribunal of the Archdiocese of Las Vegas requires all paperwork to be submitted to them at least ninety days before the wedding. Without the paperwork, a Catholic wedding cannot and will not occur inside the Cathedral.

The Metropolitan Tribunal has created a comprehensive guide of what’s required to get married in the Catholic church here in Las Vegas. Please click here to learn more.
