A wedding at the Diocesan Shrine of St. Therese of Lisieux, listed in some directories as St. Francis of Assisi Church, would take place on Garibaldi Avenue in the New Columbus section of Nesquehoning. The shrine is the former Our Lady of Mount Carmel Church, a parish founded by Italian families, and its outdoor Grotto Shrine has long been the gathering place for processions and celebrations in front of the church. For wedding photos and video, the grotto and the church front are the spots to look at first with your photographer and videographer.
Today the shrine is a worship site of St. Joseph Parish of the Panther Valley, based in Summit Hill, and it celebrates Mass on Saturday mornings. The parish welcomes registered and practicing parishioners for the sacrament of marriage, and the Diocese of Allentown's policy is to contact the parish one year, and no later than six months, before the proposed date to begin pre-nuptial instructions. Call the parish office in Summit Hill and ask whether your wedding ceremony can be held at the shrine, since the parish has more than one church.
If the shrine works for your date, plan the readings and music with the priest and share them with your wedding videographer, since the music and the vows carry the sound of your wedding film. Ask about the parish's photo and video guidelines, and whether pictures at the grotto are allowed after the ceremony. Leave time on the wedding day for family pictures outside before everyone heads to the reception.
Our Lady of Mount Carmel parish moved from the mining town of Little Italy to New Columbus around 1918, and the present church was dedicated in 1955. The Grotto Shrine was dedicated in 1945, and the church was designated the Shrine of Saint Therese of Lisieux in 2012, home of the long-running Shower of Roses celebration.
Locations set their own rules about where photographers and videographers can stand, when they can take photos or film, and whether vendors need approval. We don't state those rules here.
See the policy on the location's website → or ask the location directly.
