What happens in premarital counselling?Premarital counselling provides structured conversations about topics many couples overlook - money management, family planning, conflict styles, and in-law boundaries. Using specialized assessments, we identify potential friction points before they become established patterns, helping you develop specific communication strategies for navigating differences. Sessions blend practical scenario planning with exploration of how your family backgrounds shape relationship expectations. Our approach builds on your existing strengths while developing skills to navigate inevitable challenges, creating a relationship roadmap that strengthens your foundation before wedding excitement fades and real-life stresses emerge.

Is premarital counselling worth it?Premarital counselling offers exceptional return on investment, with research showing couples who participate are 30% less likely to divorce and report significantly higher satisfaction in early marriage years. The structured process helps prevent common pitfalls by addressing expectations, communication patterns, and potential conflict areas before they become entrenched problems. Most couples discover surprising differences in assumptions about married life that would otherwise emerge during stressful situations. Beyond problem prevention, the experience creates a foundation of open communication about difficult topics that serves relationships long-term. Consider it similar to insurance - the upfront investment protects your emotional and financial commitment while providing practical tools that benefit your relationship regardless of what challenges emerge.

What percentage of couples do premarital counselling?Approximately 30-40% of couples now participate in some form of premarital counselling, though this varies significantly by religious affiliation, with higher rates among couples marrying in faith communities where it's often required. Research indicates this number has been steadily increasing as more couples recognize the practical benefits beyond traditional religious contexts. We've observed growing participation among secular couples seeking evidence-based relationship preparation, particularly those who've witnessed divorce in their families or who are marrying later with established individual habits. While still not the majority practice, premarital counselling participation continues to rise as couples increasingly approach marriage as a skill-based commitment rather than simply a romantic milestone.
