The time between saying "yes" and saying "I do" can be fun and romantic and also stressful. Who knew there would be so many decisions to be made and details to be planned even if your intention is for a simple wedding?


You want your wedding day to be beautiful and meaningful. What about the days after you say "I do?"

It's a good idea to invest time and energy in making sure that your marriage is happy and long lasting.

So why would a couple come for premarital counseling if they are not having problems?  Many of my clients want to come to counseling before the wedding because they know that life will give them challenges in the future.  Even the best relationships have bumps in the road and these couples want to be prepared.  Some couples are from families where there have been relationship problems and they want their own marriages to be healthier and stronger.

If your busy work and social lives make it difficult to schedule a series of premarital counseling sessions, I can offer you a customized engaged couple's retreat.  In just one or two mornings or afternoons, you can learn and practice startup skills for a more loving marriage.

I am very experienced at helping couples to prevent relationship problems as well as coaching you in reducing engagement/wedding stress.  You may find it to be even more important than finding the right dress.
