Marriage and Heaven On their way to get married, a young Catholic couple is Involved in a fatal car accident. The couple find themselves Sitting outside the Pearly Gates waiting for St. Peter to Process them into Heaven. While waiting, they wondered if they could possibly get married in Heaven? When St. Peter showed up, they asked him. St. Peter said, 'I don't know. This is the first time anyone has asked. Let me go find out,' and he leaves. The couple sat and waited, and waited.
