Soulmates & Stardust is a playful, guided Valentine retreat for couples who love each other but feel busy, distracted, or just a little out of sync. In one intentional weekend, you will slow down, reconnect, laugh together, and remember what it feels like to choose each other — on purpose.This is NOT therapy. There are no awkward group confessions. There is no fixing what is broken.
There IS guided connection, meaningful conversation, joyful movement, and time together in a storybook setting designed for presence and ease!
WHY COUPLES CHOOSE THIS RETREAT:
Most couples do not need fixing. They need space, time, and some gentle suggestions on how to connect even deeper.
Soulmates & Stardust gives you a Valentine weekend that actually changes how you feel together — not just how nice your photos look [although, you're welcome to take plenty of those, too!]. The experience is designed to help you reconnect without pressure, overthinking, or emotional exhaustion.
You will be gently guided through experiences that help you feel closer, communicate more clearly, and, most importantly, have fun together.
WHAT YOU WILL WALK AWAY WITH:
By Sunday, you will leave with:
• A stronger sense of being on the same team
• Simple communication tools you can use at home
• A clearer understanding of what helps your partner feel loved
• New shared rituals that make everyday life feel more connected
• A weekend of memories that bring the spark back when life gets busy
WHAT MAKES THIS DIFFERENT:
This is not a lecture-based workshop. This is not couples counseling. This is not a silent retreat or a performance-heavy experience. Instead, you will experience:
• Guided conversations that feel natural, not forced
• Motion and play that create laughter and ease
• Shared meals and celebrations that bring you together
• Spacious breaks to rest, connect privately, and integrate
• A warm group environment without pressure to overshare
• Time to be connected to nature in a beautiful setting
