6 Reasons to Get Premarital Counseling

  1. Your Budget.  The best way to save money on your wedding?  Only get married once!  Premarital counseling or premarital education will help decrease the likelihood of divorce 30%.
  2. Your Kids.  You may not have kids yet, and the idea of parenthood might make you throw up a little bit, but premarital counseling is good for the entire family!  Learning how to fight fair and work as a team means that you are going to teach your kids the same thing without even thinking about it.
  3. Make it to the 5th anniversary.  Most divorces happen within the first 5 years of marriage.  5 years!  Our commitment to love and honor another person forever MIGHT last half a decade.  This is not good.
  4. Confidence.  There is nothing worse than celebrating during your wedding day with a pit in your stomach wondering, “Are we doing the right thing?”  Or coming back from the honeymoon and thinking, “Uh-oh.”  Premarital counseling allows you to get a really good idea of who you are marrying and clarify your thoughts about why you’re getting married. 
  5. Great Sex.  You’re going to be talking more and fighting less which happens to be the perfect recipe for curl-your-toes love making on the honeymoon.
  6. It’s cheap!  Most pastors require that a couple do premarital counseling with him or her and that’s typically free.  Other forms of premarital counseling cost approximately $500, which is less than 1% of a typical Nashville wedding budget.  Seriously, isn’t your marriage worth it?
