No, if you are a true believer of the Catholic faith, it is important to you to marry a Catholic, so that your marriage can be sanctified the the Church, and so that your children can grow up as Catholics.

Does the Mormon church celebrate marriage?
Yes. Marriage is very sacred and important to members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church). They believe that marriage is a part of God's plan and that marriage and parenthood are part of the purpose of life. They also believe that marriage is for eternity and that married couples continue together in heaven after death. Marriage is so special that according to some Mormon scriptures marriage in the Mormon Temple will allow some to become gods, although interpreting these scriptures is not easy. Mormons are taught to look forward to marriage from the time they are children. Typically, a Mormon wedding ceremony is very small and limited to only close family and friends. However, Mormons are notorious for holding huge wedding receptions. It is customary to invite extended family (even in very large families) from both sides, friends, and even the entire congregation for the reception. Many Mormon couples (especially in Utah where congregations can be very large) expect a thousand guests at their receptions. (as an example, I had 15 guests at my ceremony and 700 at my reception) Mormon churches and temples will perform and host weddings and receptions at no charge, so many Mormons (and even non-Mormons) choose to hold their wedding celebrations at a church building.
