There’s nothing quite like getting married at Mater Dolorosa. An experience that feels both timeless and deeply personal, rooted in tradition and reverence. With the church’s recent renovations, the sanctuary is truly a sight to behold, offering a breathtaking setting for a Sacrament that has been celebrated there for generations.
Under the shady oaks of South Carrollton Avenue, Mater Dolorosa Catholic Church stands out as a Christian marvel. Over 200 years old, the church is an enduring testament to the Catholic faith. Adorned with breathtaking artwork, the faith is proclaimed with brush and chisel.
The congregation of Mater Dolorosa is its true treasure: the family of God loving each other to worship Jesus Christ as their one and only Messiah. Proclaiming the Gospel (the Good News), it stands as a beacon of light in the City of New Orleans and the world. That proclamation is achieved by word, example, prayer and faith.
