This is a difficult question to dissect. I think what you mean is that a Catholic gets married to a Non-Catholic in a Civil Ceremony and then sometime later wants to receive Communion. Any Catholic can receive Communion and should, as long as they are not aware of any mortal sin. In this situation, Catholics must be married in the Catholic Church or receive a dispensation to be married elsewhere. If this is not done, it is a grave offense (mortal sin) and a confession is required before going to Communion again.

Can I receive Holy Communion even though I didn't receive reconciliation?
Roman Catholic AnswerNot if you are in a state of mortal sin. To receive Holy Communion in a state of mortal sin, is not only another mortal sin, but sacrilege and scandal, as well - both of which are mortal sins. You have to remember that Holy Communion is the actual Body and Blood of Jesus Christ, Himself, Who is God. Anytime you are in a state of sin you are required to go to confession first, if you are unable to get to confession before Mass, you should refrain from approaching for Communion and make an act of Spiritual Communion - where you pray to God to forgive you and to come into your soul as if you were able to receive Holy Communion.

What minister officiated at Rocky Marciano's wedding?
the famous pugilist was certainly a Roman Catholic. Therefore, to stay within the Church Law, a Catholic Priest would have to have performed the nuptial ceremony. There are now different types of Marriage rites, for example, as it is a separate Sacrament, it can be held without communion, whereas the Nuptial Mass was as the name implies a wedding integrated into a regulation Catholic Mass, with communion. By law , all catholics must be married by a Priest.

If you are both Catholic and neither was married before you can go to the parish priest and have the marriage validated. You will need to show marriage license and records of baptisms as Catholics.
