I am a divorced. I was married to a non-baptized person. It was in a Catholic church by priest. Was that a sacrament? After my divorce, I talked to a priest about my situation, he said it was not a sacrament.
 
For a marriage to be sacramental, both parties must be baptized. So, judging from the report you’ve given, your marriage was not sacramental. But, if you married an unbaptized person in the Church, then your marriage was presumptively valid (i.e., it is considered to be a true marriage). If you are thinking of entering a romantic relationship or religious life, you will first need to submit your marriage to your diocese’s marriage tribunal for a declaration of nullity.
