Cultivating a thriving marriage isn’t always easy. It takes skills and intentionality. It takes two willing people, coming to the table, embracing vulnerability, and committing to being better, together. Preparing For Marriage is an online course that makes learning those healthy relationship skills FUN. You’ll learn how to communicate clearly, fight fairly, find true intimacy, navigate in-laws and boundaries (and so much more) so you can create the foundation for an unbreakable marriage. All the essential tools you’ll need are jam-packed into 8 fun and fast-paced lessons with videos and worksheets to do together, guided by relationship experts.
✅ 8 essential lessons that you can work on when you want & where you want.
✅ Each lesson is divided into 3 parts: “Past You,” “Present You,” and “Future You.” Each part has a brief video led by marriage experts, Reggie & Lauren. You’ll have questions to talk through together and a handout to dive deeper.
✅ After watching the videos and completing the lesson, there will be a quick pop-quiz* to make sure you’re getting the information you need! (And remembering it!)
✅ BONUS: You’ll have access to Reggie & Lauren by email every step of the way to answer any questions or just give you a little encouragement!
*If you live in a state where a discount is offered on your marriage license for completing premarital education or counseling, these quizzes are mandatory for you to qualify.
From adjusting to your soon-to-be new normal to figuring out what your honey means when they give you that look, adjusting to marriage can be hard.

This ebook gives you the top 10 things you need to know, the research behind them, and questions for yourself and your partner so you can work through each topic together.
