Civil law marriage procreation?

[wheattys]

When someone who has a civil law marriage waiting to have it blessed in the Church expected to give up procreation relations? I know that the sacrament of the eucharist is not allowed before the Church validates the marriage, and I know that after the Church validates the marriage you must go to confession and have your moral sins and venial sins absolved to receive the eucharist, but,is procreation really wrong when you have a civil marriage unblessed in the church when you are trying to make things right?

I think until it’s actually “made right” it’s technically a sin. Because until your marriage is blessed in the church - you aren’t considered to BE married - so wouldn’t it be like having sex outside of marriage??

I hope someone else answers your question… I might not have this correct - it’s just my understanding.

questions of conscience or about matter for confession are directed to your priest, not to strangers on an internet forum. your context shows you are aware of Church teaching on marriage, so be guided by that teaching, and refer your individual situation to your priest without delay. we will be praying for you.
