Marriage

Matrimony, or marriage, is a sacrament that unites a man and a woman in a lifelong partnership of love and mutual support. In the Catholic Church, marriage is seen as a sacred covenant blessed by God. Through the exchange of vows before a priest or deacon along with the couple's witnesses, the bride and groom promise to faithfully love and care for each other, and to raise their children in the faith.

Couples wishing to be married at St. Dorothy Catholic Church should contact the church office

at (626) 914-3941 to reserve a date at least six months prior to their wedding date. The church will have the couple submit a marriage request form to begin the preparation period. Congratulations on this exciting time in your lives and please call us if you have any questions.
