While the priest or deacon witness the matrimony, in the Western Church (i.e. Roman Catholics), the minister of the Sacrament of marriage is the couple themselves. They do so by their mutual consent.

Can a Catholic deacon perform a Catholic wedding?
A deacon takes a vow of celibacy when he gets ordained, so he can not marry after that. In Catholicism, a Marriage is "performed" by the two people getting married, they give the sacrament of marriage to each other. The priest or deacon is just the Church's witness, neither of them can perform a marriage, both of them can witness a marriage.United StatesClergy, among a host of minor and major public officials, are allowed to perform marriages by law however the couple must have a civil marriage license. Without the civil marriage license the marriage is not valid.We have ordained deacons in the United States who are married and who have never taken a vow of celibacy. If their wife should die they are not supposed to remarry. An ordained deacon would be authorized as clergy to perform marriages and baptisms under state laws and church laws.

What sacrament does not need a priest to give the sacrament?
There are actually two sacraments which don't require a priest: The first is Baptism. Any person (even a non-Catholic) can baptise a person as long as they follow the requirements for it to be valid (ie, pure and natural water, say the right words, have the right intention). The second is Marriage: While the Church strongly encourages Catholics to marry in the presence of a priest (and to have a wedding Mass, if both prospective spouses are Catholic), strictly speaking, a priest is not needed. The "ministers" of the sacrament are the couple who are marrying. Answer: I strongly disagree to the above answer. Both the sacraments mentioned above need to be administered by a priest (or a deacon), but not by any lay person in the Roman Catholic faith. A Deacon can administer the sacraments of Baptism, Matrimony and Anointing of the Sick. For the rest of the four sacraments (Communion, Confirmation, Confession and Holy Orders) you need compulsarily a priest or a Bishop
Who administers the sacrament of Marriage and how?
The couple minister to each other. However, only an ordained priest, bishop, or deacon can accept the consent of the couple in the name of the Church as witness. The two lay people (of the opposite sex) give and accept vows committing to each other in a life-long covenant of exclusive love and pledge to be open to life in every sexual act.
How can I get paperwork for a catholic priest to marry a couple in a chapel in gatlinburg Tennessee?

Does the Catholic Church recognize marriage if a Catholic woman marries in a Episcopalian Church?
Any marriage, which takes place in the Catholic Church, is valid. When one wishes to marry, one should contact his local priest; the priest will give instructions to the couple and the non-Catholic must agree to raise the children in the Catholic Faith. If the priest determines that the intentions of the couple are in union with Church teachings, he will permit the marriage. However, if one were to marry outside the Church...the Marriage is not valid.
How do you get married when you are a Catholic?
First off, you must talk with a pastor or deacon who will arrange for some counseling classes to determine if the couple is truly prepared for a life time commitment. That is the starting point. Your deacon or priest will advise you of further steps you may need to take before a wedding can be performed.
