Build the foundation
before you need it.
Getting married is one of the most significant transitions a couple navigates, and one of the best opportunities to do real relationship work. The Premarital Checkup is a structured, evidence-based premarital program that helps couples enter marriage with a clear understanding of their patterns, their strengths, and the tools to navigate what is ahead.

right reasons to be here.
Some couples come with specific concerns they want to address before the wedding: a pattern that keeps coming up, a conversation they have not been able to have, or something that feels unresolved. Others come simply because they want to start strong rather than wait until something goes wrong.
Both are exactly the right reasons to be here.
Working through something specific
A recurring pattern, a difficult conversation, or something that feels unresolved before you make a major commitment.
Starting strong
Not because anything is wrong, but because you want to enter marriage with clarity, tools, and a shared foundation to build on.
Getting an honest picture
An evidence-based look at your relationship before a major commitment: your strengths, your patterns, and where to focus your energy.
For couples who want to
enter marriage prepared.
The Premarital Checkup is a good fit for couples who want more than a checklist, whether you are addressing something specific or simply investing in what you are building together.
Engaged couples, or couples seriously considering marriage, who want a strong foundation
Partners who have specific concerns or patterns they want to address going in
Couples who want an honest, evidence-based picture of their relationship before a major commitment
