And my fiace is an Athiest and I don't have a religious preference, but I still believe in something. He says that if I wanted to get married in a church, he would do that for me, but I just cant push that on to him if he doesnt believe. What are some good ways to get married legally without going through a church? I really want this to be as special to him as it will be for me. He means the world to me.

Get married at the court but have a reception.

I am sorry that your fiance is an Atheist. God is the creator of marriage and of love. I hope you continue to believe in God.
Any ways, If you live by a lake or the beach, you can have a wedding on the sand. By the riverside. Put up some nice flower arrangements. Fix your isle with shells or some nice rocks and flowers. Have Torches all around, if it is later in the day.
Or you can find a nice place, where you can have the ceremony, as well as the reception. Set aside a certain section of the place for the ceremony. Decorate it with candles, flowers, and make it where people can see you. Like up on a stage.
Or find a relative or friend, with a big back yard. Decorate it with canopies, and all the things you like. Have the ceremony there, as well as the reception. You can be creative, and still have a beautiful wedding. That fact is you love each other. And love will conquer all.

Vegas Baby. You can plan a fun wedding with your friends and family. Set a theme and enjoy your wedding day. Even if you can only afford to bring the maid and best man you can make it a event to enjoy for the rest of your marriage. You can video tape the event and have a reception in your home town. I have been to several of these types of weddings. They don't have to be dress up like Elvis they can be anything you both may have in common surroundings. You can also go to city hall. The reception is where the fun is anyways. The church these days is for the parents and family more then the couple unless you are both active in your church.

I'm agnostic, and I don't follow any religion. However most of my friends and family are religious and I do tolerate other religions. If the man I love wants to get married in a church I would do it...
To be honest churches don't mean anything to me since I don't feel connected or have any religious affiliation to them, so it would be like getting married in any building. Most atheists and agnostics i know feel the same way, so if he says he doesn't care he most likely does not...
And I think anything that is special to you will be special to him

My mom in regulation have been given married at 15. My eldest brother in regulation's spouse became married while she became 14. I have been given married at 19. besides you may no longer get married at sixteen except you have your ascertain's consent to get married. Wait till your 18 and verify it relatively is what you prefer to do. in case you rush into it then you definately'll experience sorry approximately your mistake for something of your existence and you will never be satisfied.

Maybe have a nice garden wedding without the minister or priest and just make up your own vowes on paper what you want to say to the other. or you can do city hall but thats cold.
Just do what you would normally want for your wedding but leave out the religous pastures and make your own vowes

Why would you marry someone who doesn't believe in God if you do? That's not gonna work in the end.
