Registration for the 2026 Marriage Celebration Is Open

 

The date and time for the 2026 Marriage Celebration have been confirmed: April 30th at 6 PM. Couples who wish to receive the blessing from the Author of Love at the Altar of The Universal Church can begin their preparations now.

 
 

Why Present Your Marriage at the Altar

The registration process is straightforward, free from unnecessary bureaucracy, and does not involve the high costs often associated with traditional weddings. Before explaining how to participate, it’s important to understand why presenting your marriage at the Altar is significant.

More than a religious tradition, presenting your marriage at the Altar is an act of faith. It symbolizes the moment when a couple consecrates their union before the Lord Jesus Himself. By taking this step, couples separate their relationship from the destruction affecting many families today and receive God’s wisdom and guidance to build a happy, stable, and lasting future together.
 
 

A Worldwide Marriage Celebration

In 2025, the Wedding Celebration brought together approximately 15,734 couples worldwide. Each recognized the value of marriage and chose to place their union in God’s hands. Now, this same opportunity is open once again to all who want to establish their relationship with God as its foundation.
