If there are graces poured out at a catholic wedding does the non-catholic spouse receive them? Also if a catholic partner receives a dispensation from the bishop to be married in a non-catholic wedding, does he receive the graces (s)he would at a catholic wedding?
 
As I understand it any valid marriage between a baptized man and woman would receive an outpouring of grace regardless of the denomination of either party or where/how the marriage ceremony is performed. In other words a Methodist woman marrying a Catholic man in either a Catholic or Methodist rite would still receive the same outpouring of grace.

In your question it is unclear if the non-catholic would include those that are unbaptized. If it is a valid marriage between someone that is baptized and unbaptized then I’m not as sure since it is a natural rather than a sacramental marriage.

I was baptized (Presbyterian) and my wife was not baptized when we married so it was a valid natural marriage. When she was baptized and received into the Catholic Church 9 years later I know that our marriage automatically became sacramental at that point. The question is if the outpouring or grace occurred for us at different times (me at the marriage, her at baptism) or only when the marriage became sacramental? I suspect it was when the marriage became sacramental just because of a change in the texture of our marriage since her baptism.

Whenver two baptized individuals marry each other validly, they receive the sacramental graces inherent in Matrimony, provided they are in a state of grace.

If they are not in a state of Grace when they marry can they go to a priest go through absolution and get the graces they were supposed to get at marriage?

I didn’t think about valid baptizem being involved in a marriage. So if one if not validly baptized then neither receive the graces? What are these graces?

But, keep in mind that one who is not in a state of grace will not receive grace, and his good works merit nothing.

Huh? I believe the church itself has said maybe even one of the popes that any good deed brings us closer to God. So don’t bother with the rosary when out of grace? It’s so easy to fall into sin. I have been slothful lately and missed Mass. Simply not going to Mass I would think would eventually take you out of grace.
 
Grace is a gift from God and God alone.

Marriage should always be an unselfish commitment.

Marriage is God’s first human institution and he will bless it if the couple love and trust him.

When we aren’t in a state of grace, we have completely separated ourselves from God therefore any good thing we do won’t go to Him. Basic teaching. 👍
