I am not quite sure about the Catholic church, but in the Anglican Church marriage of first cousins is acceptable and not included in the 'forbidden' list in the Book of Common Prayer, as cousings are deemed far enough apart genetically to not be a problem. In history, many first cousins (especially in royal families) have married with no social, spiritual - or genetic - problems.
