Can a Protestant be a witness in a Catholic wedding?
My sister, who is protestant, is my Maid of Honor and will be one of the "witnesses" during our catholic ceremony. So in our case, yes. However, be sure to ask the person who will be presiding over the wedding. They may have a different opinion.

Can Catholics serve as a bride's maid in Lutheran wedding?
Yes, the bridal party (groomsmen, bridesmaids) do not have to be Lutheran.Roman Catholic AnswerYou need to speak with your pastor, your priest about this. If either of the people getting married is Catholic then they must get married before a priest. If both of them are protestant, then there is nothing wrong with the wedding, but whether a Catholic may participate in a non-Catholic wedding as an official witness, that you would have to ask your priest.

Can a Jehovah's Witness participate in a church of England wedding?

What is the required age for a witness at a Catholic wedding?
12Roman Catholic AnswerThe only thing that I can find in canon law regarding the witnesses is Canon 1108, section 1, which mentions that a valid marriage is contracted in the presence o fhte local ordinary or the pastor or a priest or deacon delegated by either of the, who assist, and in the presence of two witnesses. Nothing in Canon Law stipulates an age of the witnesses. An age may be set by a local Bishops' Conference or an individual diocese.
Does the Coptic service fulfill the Catholic mass obligation?
Under normal conditions a Roman Catholic cannot substitute a Coptic Mass, which is an Orthodox Church, for his Sunday obligation to assist at a Catholic Mass unless there is no Catholic Church in the area. However, a Catholic may attend a Coptic wedding or funeral in the same way he may attend a Protestant funeral or wedding.
Is it a sin to attend a wedding of a fallen away catholic and a Lutheran?
I don't believe it's a sin to attend the wedding. The marriage is in their love...I believe that their love is the main celebration and wouldn't be a sin at all to go and celebrate it with them.Roman Catholic answerYes, it is a sin to officially witness and/or give your support to someone committing sin, and/or committing to live in a sinful life. You should talk to your priest before doing something like this, there may be other circumstances that are relevant to the situation.
Can a Catholic woman marry a non-Catholic man who is divorced in a luthern church.?
Such a marriage would not be valid in the eyes of the Catholic Church. Catholics may marry non-Catholics in the Catholic Church, but they are not permitted to go through a non-Catholic wedding ceremony.
Can a Jehovah witness be the maid of honor in a Catholic wedding?
No, I am 13, not a good age but was raised a JW since I was born. I ran away from home and left the cult, the restrictions are outrageous and I am studding the religions and comparing them, there thoughts on life, sex, marriage, and anything you can imagine, is deluded. If it is true, let me pay the consequences for my own actions, but I will not abide by the false lies of there congregation. To answer your question. If you don't want to be disfellowshipped then no, but I would leave anyways.ANSWER FROM ONE OF JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES (adult)Yes, of course; Jehovah's Witnesses can attend any ceremony as a guest and not a participant, however some may chose personally not to attend the actuall ceremony since Jehovah's Witnesses to not participate in religious rites that do not agree with their conception of bible teachings.This therefore rests a personal decision.
