Marriage banns in Mexico

By Jack Brummet, Mexico Travel Ed.

I don't remember seeing these before in Mexico, but in the state of Baja California Sur, the Catholic Church still publishes marriage banns.  These were posted in the lobby of a church in Todos Santos. The banns more or less replace a marriage license and allow anyone to object to a wedding prior to its occurrence.  Most priests--in an article on banns I read--say they cannot recall anyone ever objecting.
