How do you get your marriage recognized by the Catholic Church?
All marriages between non-Catholics are recognized as valid by the Catholic Church. In case of non-Catholic baptized persons, all marriages (also civil marriages!) are recognized as sacramental marriages. In case of non-baptized people, they are recognized as valid, but not sacramental marriages. For baptized Catholics, there is a requirement of form in order to have a valid sacramental marriage. If you have married without observing these requirements or without getting a dispensation from the Church authorities, then your marriage is considered invalid. It can be recognized retroactively by the Church though, in a short ceremony which is called "sanatio in radice" (healing at the root). Ask your local Catholic pastor about it!

You will not be "remarried' but now married with the vows of the Catholic faith
Does the Catholic church recognize marriages performed in the Lutheran Church?
Actually, the Catholic Church recognizes ALL marriages between baptized persons as valid sacramental ("religious") marriages. So if the couple was married by a minister in another sect of Christianity, like the Lutheran one, that marriage is recognized. Even if the marriage between two baptized non-Catholics was secular, in a civil ceremony, such as a clerk of the court or a justice of the peace, it is also recognized as a sacramental marriage, because the marriage is theologically contracted through the will of the spouses, and non-Catholics are not bound by formal requirements as Catholics are. If the marriage is between a Catholic and a baptized non-Catholic, it can be recognized as a religious marriage if a few steps are taken. The Catholic person in the marriage may get a dispensation that allows them to marry a non-Catholic. You can also get one that allows the wedding to be preformed outside of a Catholic church. If you do both, then the marriage is in fact recognized as a religious one by the Catholic Church.
What if married outside the church and can't have a catholic priest at the ceremony How do you get the church to recognize your marriage?
The question needs to be expanded as there are many things to consider. A Catholic can marry outside the church as long as it is in another Christian church and recognized by the Catholic church if the non catholic party agrees to your oath to raise the children as Catholic. The priest does not have to be present. The marriage must be in church, it cannot be outside the church in a garden or country club, unless the non-catholic party is Jewish or Muslim (out of respect) and again agrees to the children being brought up as Catholic If two catholics are married by a Justice of the Peace outside of church they can have their marriage recognized by the Catholic Church,as long as this was first marriage for both.
