After a marriage has been
celebrated, the marriage
is to be recorded in the marriage register of the place
of marriage (
cf., canon 1121 §1). The marriage is also to be noted in the baptismal
registers
in which the baptism of the spouses has been recorded. If a
spouse did not contract marriage in the parish in which the person was
baptized, the pastor of the place of the celebration is to send notice of the
marriage as soon as possible to the pastor of the place of the baptism (
cf.,
canon 1122).
