87% of young adults plan on being married eventually and 82% expect to be married for life. Did you catch that? Almost all young adults between the ages of 18 and 30 not only aspire to eventually be married, they plan on it. The sad truth is more time and money are spent on preparation for the wedding than on the marriage.
Here are some more facts:
- 76% of married couples say they wished they would have had pre-marital education.
- 86% of Americans over 18 say all couples considering marriage should get pre-marriage education.
- Couples who do not receive pre-marriage education are more likely to see their problems as atypical and unsolvable.
- 41% of divorced couples say lack of pre-marriage education contributed to their divorce.
If you are looking for pre-marital education, I would love to walk through them with you. Some of the areas that I help you walk through as a couple is:
Premarital Couple Sessions
A couple must commit to at least 8 sessions and will take the assessment before starting their sessions.
Premarital Intensive
A couple commits to a full day. The day would be about 4 hours in the morning with either a working lunch (if the couple desires this), or a lunch break along with a 4-hour session in the afternoon.
Group Premarital Intensive
Group intensives are not as intimate and the review of each couple's assessment is much less extensive. However, education and skill building become more important in these intensives. Also, it is helpful to hear from other couples and share with other couples in helping to prepare for marriage. A lunch break would be provided.
