The Sacrament of Holy Matrimony:

Regarding marriage, couples are asked to be in touch with the Parish Priest at least six months in advance of the proposed date of marriage in order that adequate preparation may be undertaken – this is the stipulation of the Diocese. Couples should approach the Parish Priest at Sunday Mass, or, if they are not resident in the parish, should contact him by telephone or via e-mail. Those who are not resident in the parish require the permission of their own Parish Priest to marry outside of their parish of domicile.
