Default Can I receive communion at an Anglican church if I haven't be confirmed?

I'm getting married in an Anglican church, I am a baptized Anglican, but I've never been confirmed. I don't know if I am allowed to receive communion. Please help!

Yes. Usually, any baptized Christian can take Communion in an Anglican Church (except for Catholics, because DA Papa say No!).

@Frog boy - Yes, the Anglican Church is Catholic - that's why the sacraments are only available to the baptized. Unless, of course, you happen to be one of those Anglicans who thinks the body and blood of Christ is nothing more than a snack. I have NEVER seen a child taking communion in the Church of England, but God only knows what the crazhazyscopalians do. You are correct, however, that I should have said "Papists" rather than "Catholics".

I believe you only need to be a baptized Christian, not confirmed.

The first answerer is wrong.....the Anglican Church is Catholic and ALL are welcome to receive communion as long as you understand what receiving communion means...even small children receive communion in the Anglican church.

Actually, Catholics can be received into the Anglican Communion.And if you are getting married and have been baptized yes you can and should receive communion. it's Catholics who limit Anglicans, not the other way around.
