Can I marry in a Roman Catholic church and a Greek Orthodox church?
Generally speaking, you can only be married in one, not both, otherwise you are getting married twice. Many people choose to marry in an Eastern Orthodox Church, and then perhaps have a blessing ceremony in a catholic church. The reason for this is because an Orthodox Wedding is accepted by all catholics, but a catholic wedding is not always accepted by all Orthodox bishops. An Orthodox wedding is accepted as valid by both. Answer2 A catholic wedding is not a valid wedding according to the Orthodox church (official position). Either you or your fiance have to be an Orthodox Christian to get married in an Orthodox church. Typically an Orthodox Priest will want both parties to come to pre-marital counseling and all the particulars of an Orthodox wedding and marriage will be discussed so that everyone is prepared. A famous example of this is when Grand Duchess Elizabeth who was at the time of her marriage Princess Elizabeth of Hesse Germany and a Lutheran married Grand Duke Sergei Alexandrovich of Russia. She later voluntarily converted to Orthodoxy (there is never any compulsion to convert).

There would be no need for a full blown wedding, however, as the Catholic Church does accept the sacraments of the Orthodox Church as valid.
