Premarital Retreats

Congratulations, you two have decided to get married!

The time between getting engaged and having your wedding tends to be filled with the extremes of emotion. While it has so much beauty and excitement, it can also be fraught with stressors derailing the process.

The Couple Formula Premarital Retreat focuses on supporting you two in the most meaningful and efficient way possible. Your capacity to know each other effectively at the beginning of your life together will save you time, energy, and money in the long run, giving you the confidence to start your journey in marriage together.

Enrolling in the Couple Formula Premarital Retreat is an investment in your present and future. It gives you both the gift of meaningful conversations, practical principles and skills, and invaluable tools that will serve you well into the future.

The Couple Formula Premarital Program helps couples strengthen:

  • Effective Communication

    There are a variety of topics that couples will find themselves arguing about. With only 7% of our communication being verbal, deeply knowing one another’s body language, tone, and facial expressions is important for clarity and understanding.

  • Dealing With Stressors

    Life is stressful! And when you sign up for a lifetime with someone, knowing how to navigate stressors together helps you both have support, security and mutuality.

  • Fighting Better

    Couples will fight, and it is inevitable that through your life together you will step on each other’s toes. Learning how to fight better is key to getting in and out of conflict quickly. TCF Premarital Intensive will help couples see where they trip up and understand how to better navigate conflict in the future.

  • Understanding Purpose

    Getting clear on your purpose as a couple helps you have an agreed upon view of what you two are creating together. The TCF Premarital Program helps couples create purpose, guardrails, and a shared vision for their relationship for a strong and secure foundation for marriage.

‘There are many things I wish I had known before I was married, and as a therapist and coach, I find joy in helping couples navigate how to find more love, connection, and a deeper understanding of one another. A common misconception is that you need to be in conflict and have relational trouble to do couple’s work. This is not true! Doing premarital work sets couples up for long-term success and relationship satisfaction. I believe a secure relationship provides ease and health in all areas of life. Having the confidence to navigate difficult life events with your partner creates confidence and lasting love.”
