Yes.
The Catholic Church allows marriage between Catholics and non-baptized persons.
You will have to get permission from the bishop because the Church recognizes the tremendous challenge you have ahead of you.
Make an appointment with your parish priest and talk to him about your situation.
With love in Christ.

Catholics can marry anyone in Church, so long as
1. They have never been married in a Catholic Church before - it's a once only event
2. The non catholic has lessons with the Priest - not to convert, but to understand the religious beliefs of their partner.
3. The couple agree that any children that result of the marrige will be raised as Catholic

That's a tough one. I had a friend who was Muslim and her parents were really strict. She couldn't even come over to my house because I had a brother.
But I am Methodist, and my boyfriend has no religion and we are getting married in my church. He doesn't have to convert either.
The bride usually gets married in her hometown so she probably picks where too, you might have to get married in a Muslim church. If her parents know about your relationship and are fine with it I doubt they are very strict.
Good luck.

Catholics would have to convert to Islam if they want to marry a muslim woman for it to be "somewhat" excepted & you would have to marry in a mosque..it would be frowned upon by the Muslim family and they wont except the marriage as valid if not..and you will not be excepted as family, much ridicule would follow because Muslim religion doensnt believe in marrying out of the race, thats why one has to convert if not it cant happen
I dted a Muslim guy for 4 yrs, and he never revealed to the family that i was his gfriend as when he talked to them i just believed him when he said he told them..a very abusive relationship, physical and mental..his fam said that i deserve what i got since i was american!! so, in other words it was ok for him to hit me
sorry, but i wish you luck

You sure can but you will have to fill out extra paperwork and have to do a little extra at your pre canna class. But of course you can always get married in a catholic church as long as one of you are catholic. GOOD LUCK

You can marry anyone you wish to marry in the USA. The Carholic Church has no say in this matter; it is none of their business. She needs to assure her own religion does not care. The muslims are aware of the tricks of the Cathgolic faith. You would need to try to keep the peace. It is like the pope in Turkey getting browney points from non-Christians. I have a problem like yours, my boyfriend is Muslim.
With love in Christ.

Well my friend is Catholic and her husband is not so he had to convert, take all the classes and everything just so they could be married in the church.
He was Methodist I believe.
