Who We Are and What We Do
• Endorsed and approved by the Catholic Church.
• Lively process of listening, writing and conversations which help you and your fiancé to look at your relationship in a committed, intimate, and faith-centered way.
• Focus is on a married couple living their life together. “A Wedding is a Day, A Marriage is a Lifetime®”
• To help couples have a great marriage, they need great tools and the most important one is to communicate effectively and openly.
Though Catholic in origin, this experience is open to any engaged couple wanting to prepare for a deeper, more meaningful life together. The Weekend is an in-depth, private, personal, marriage preparation experience within the context of Catholic faith and values.
Your priest always has the final say on what he will accept for your marriage preparation. Please check with the priest who will officiate at your wedding before registering. At the conclusion of the weekend, you will receive a certificate to give to your priest verifying your participation.
