It is forbidden to solemnize marriage during lent.  That is, it is forbidden to receive the sacrament of matrimony during lent.
No. It is not forbidden to receive the sacrament of matrimony during Lent.

I don't know if it is strictly forbidden during Lent but it is certainly discouraged to the point that in traditional circles at least, it is not done. 

Lent and Advent are penitential seasons, hardly conducive to celebrating a joyous occasion such as a marriage.  If it would be allowed at all I'm sure the "celebration" would have to be very low key.

Did the precepts of the Church change?


My Baltimore catechism says:
Not to marry persons who are not Catholic, nor related to us within the third degree of kindred, nor privately without witnesses, nor to solemnize marriage during forbidden times (sundays, holy days of obligation, lent, or advent).

The counterfeit Vatican II church changed that in 1983, and in 1988 said marriage is prohibited only on Good Friday and Holy Saturday.

Apparently the SSPX likes that new law. They do not like calling John XXII and JPII saints and great, but they like this new law. They can pick and choose, like in a cafeteria.
