There’s a lot of misconception around premarital counseling. Maybe you’ve heard it’s only for people who are confident in their relationship and just want to prepare for marriage, or maybe you’ve heard the opposite- it’s only for people whose relationship is struggling. You may have wondered, “Is premarital counseling effective?” or asked, “When should I start premarital counseling?”

Premarital counseling is for anyone and everyone who wants help working through an issue or question revolving around marriage.

Maybe the first date quickly turned into the second, then the tenth, then the 100th, and now you’re wondering what marriage might look like and if it’s for you and your partner.

Or maybe the location is already booked, the colors are selected, and the cake tested. In the same way that preparing for the wedding takes months and hours of planning, you want to put the same preparation into your marriage.

And if the doubts start to creep in, what do you do then?
