Regardless of religion, orientation or creed, to be legally married you must have that piece of paper from the state with marriage certificate on it. You can have blessings galore, but that piece of paper states you are recognised and recorded as being really married.Wait.. a blessing?
What is that in relation to be actually married? Sorry, I mean I just never heard of an unmarried couple having a blessing. My parents will be married 50 years in August, they will have a mass & a blessing… but do unmarried couples get blessed!? And if so what does it achieve?! God this is news to me!!
Tigs never refers to it because she does not have it.
