Preparing for Marriage
On average, the typical couple will invest more than $30,000 on a wedding event that lasts 4 hours but invest nothing on a marriage that can (and should) last 50 years or more. The most prudent decision any engaged couple will make is to allow an experienced coach to help them work through some of the keys to building a satisfying marriage.
For the past nine years, Barrett and Jenifer have helped more than 1,000 people learn how to successfully transition from single to married life. They can help you, too!
Marriage Prep Workshop
Offered about twice a year just north of Atlanta, this one-day intensive workshop gives engaged couples the skills they need to create the marriage of their dreams. Each workshop is limited to 20 couples. The teaching sessions are practical, fun, and even guy-friendly.
You can join the more than 500 couples who have learned how to…
Communicate so your spouse really hears you.
Work through conflicts with love and acceptance.
Understand key gender differences.
Affirm and build up the unique gifts and strengths of your spouse.
Get on the same page about money.
See the connection between emotional and sexual intimacy.
Understand the spiritual dimension of marriage.
Cost for the workshop is $119 per couple and includes all workshop materials, an online personality inventory and a light breakfast. (Lunch is on your own on the beautiful Marietta square.)
Couples in Georgia who complete pre-marriage training like this also save $35 on their marriage license.
