cutie3Miami padre Alberto Cutie sure has a heck of a lot more marketing sense than the Catholic Church he once represented.

Check this out.

He turned what could have been a disaster into a picture-perfect media event.

Cutie sparked a firestorm earlier this year when, as a Catholic priest who had become the face of the church down south, he was photographed frolicking on a beach with a woman, Ruhama Canellis.

Since then, Cutie joined the Episcopal Church and married Canellis before 60 friends and family members — and People en Espanol’s shutterbugs.

The pix are in the current issue of the glossy, under the headline: Padre Alberto and Ruhama’s confession; The truth about the scandal!

The magazine even slipped in cool pictures from the couple’s honeymoon in Greece.

Cutie, 40, called the affair, at St. Bernard church in North Miami Beach, “my dream wedding.”

“I felt at peace,” he told the magazine. “I didn’t feel nervous.

    I am happy for this couple! Father Cutie is a person with normal human emotions he was no longer willing to deny. There is nothing like sharing your life and love with another. I wish them a very happy life.

    I think he did well to marry. However, I think he could have done much better than the Episcopal church. . .
    Reverend Cutie… Congratulations on your marriage, but find a biblical church and serve it with all your heart.

    Many of the early Popes were married. The celebacy rule came later. God put Adam and Eve together, so He obviously approves of marriage. God Bless ‘Em.

    I’m happy he married and wish them the best, but my question is - if his relationship with this women had not become public, would he still be a practicing Catholic priest, with a girlfriend on the side? It seems to be just another case of “do as I say, not as I do”. I didn’t hear that he tried to change the policy of the Catholic Church or made any attempt to get counseling. Thing don’t change by sneaking around until you get caught, then leaving. How many people did he counsel to stay in bad marriages because of church doctrine. I don’t think I would seek his spritual guidance, that compass seems to be broken.

    Espero que Dios lo bendiga en esta otra vocacion, y que sea Dios el que se encargue de cada una de sus palabras publicas innecesarias dichas, como fiel cristiano todas sus actitudes han sido de algo contrario a la sotana que trae puesta, la sabiduria se demuestra en silencio! Si el lee esto yo solo le pediria que siga en la religion k esta donde lo dejan hacer lo que quiere y que por favor saque de sus entrevistas y de cualquier otra cosa a la iglesia catolica, de verdad en el nombre de Jesus no hace bien a nadie y si sus palabras no edifican es mejor que se quede callado!

    Absolute ridiculous!

    He can do whatever he wants with the life God has given to him, but he has no right to use license to justify his insecurity and use the name of the Bride of Christ to accuse her of what?
    May Jesus, the High Priest and right judge have mercy on the eve that tempted and endangered the soul of this new adam.
