Retreat Description
With both the excitement and stress of considering engagement or planning a wedding, it’s easy for you and your significant other to overlook all that is needed to lay the foundation for a healthy marriage. Whether you’re considering engagement or currently engaged, Marriage Prep is a great weekend for you to learn essential skills beyond the wedding—how to navigate marriage expectations, communication, conflict management, and more.
