Can we have our marriage convalidated immediately?

The Sacraments

The short answer

From what you describe, no convalidation is needed. Marriages between non-Catholics are presumed valid unless proven otherwise, and since you were both validly baptized, though outside the Catholic Church, your marriage is also sacramental.

From what you describe, there is no reason your marriage needs convalidation. Marriages between non-Catholics are generally considered valid unless proven otherwise. And since you were both apparently validly baptized, even though outside the Catholic Church, your marriage is also sacramental.
