When a Catholic is "married" at a civil or non-Catholic ceremony, other Catholics are not allowed to be present, or even to send gifts or show any approval, since this is not a real marriage, but simply a terrible agreement to live together in sin.

Where do you get these pictures? They seem to a series.
Yes, I have several in the series: Holy Matrimony, First Holy Communion, Holy Orders.
I do a lot of searching online for images, and I save a lot of them to my harddrive.
They must all come from a series, though, I'm sure--those, and, for example, the Tridentine Mass one you have.
