I'm not sure he can. Since he's now a priest, I guess he should be the one to celebrate your wedding Mass. That was what happened to me too. We were to enter into the seminary togther, but couldn't so he celebrated my wedding. 5 Likes |

The best your priest friend can do for you is to be part of the officiating priest or rather he'll be the priest that will officiate your wedding... 4 Likes |

It will be very difficult. All Catholic priests need the permission of their Bishops for EVERYTHING-because they share in the priesthood of Christ through them. The Catholic Bishops that I know are unlikely to permit a priest to serve as a Best man. If he decides to do it without his Bishop’s permission, he will be reported by other priests and punished. How did I know? I was in the Major seminary from a diocese and reported to a Bishop for 6 years. You friend won’t tell you this. But show him this comment and tell me what he says.� Good luck.� 1 Like |

Yes! A priest can be your best man. The Catholic Church permits and allows it. There's nothing wrong in it. I have attended weddings of my seminary schoolmates where our fellow schoolmate-priests are best men. I hope to marry soon and my best man (now a priest) will be one of my classmate whom we studied for the priesthood together. 1 Like |

As a former president of CYON, it is permitted. Being a best man is more or less celebratory and has no spiritual significance. It's just to identify with your friend. 2 Likes |

Administration1: It's not a question of whether it's permitted or not but rather whether he's comfortable doing it. It's only the friend that can answer it. Whatever the answer, please don't take it personal. |

If Catholic priests go out of their way to fück women anyhow despite their celibacy vows, what's there in being a best man? |

ojorich: It is very unlikely, consider priests as married to the body of Christ. Like married men they are unlikely to be bestman. May God bless ur friendship and marriage |

Napoleon27: I doubt this submission of yours. A priest is not even allowed to take a particular position even at a friend's wedding reception talk more of playing the role of best man during wedding. You know nothing about the Catholic Church 1 Like |

The Devil uses every opportunity to lure people to evil: even the seemingly innocuous request for counsel of whether your Catholic-priest friend can be your best man!
