Go back and read what you wrote. You don't understand what "solemnize marriage" means. You are equating that with receiving the sacrament of matrimony. Your Baltimore Catechism is correct, you are incorrect.

I know someone who was married during lent but only because one party was not catholic, ergo no sacrament.

I know someone else who was not allowed to get married during lent because they were both catholic, ergo sacrament.

Maybe I am explaining it wrong, but it is clear to me that the sacrament of matrimony cannot be given or received during forbidden times.

The sacrament of matrimony has nothing to do with a priest.  He is only a witness.

This is not true. The Baltimore Catechism is correct. "To solemnize" is the key word here and you are not getting it.

I'd be interested to know when this wedding took place.  I thought it was forbidden to solemnize marriage at forbidden times (ie: Lent/Advent)?
It was Feb. 10, 2018 four-days before lent.

I do not understand what you are saying here. Speaking in plain English, one was never allowed to be married during Lent in a church ceremony. That is what Fanny said.

Solemnize means no big celebration. Once again people popping off...
Prove it.
