Pre-Marital Road Map

Before You Say “I Do”

-Make Sure You’re Aligned on What Comes After-

Whether this is your first marriage or your third, your relationship deserves more than wishful thinking and good intentions.

This work is about preparing for the relationship—not just the wedding.

If you’re asking questions like:

• “Are we actually aligned on parenting, money, or values?”
• “How do we stay connected when things get hard?”
• “What happens when we disagree—or disappoint each other?”
• “How do we make this marriage different from our last one?”

You’re in the right place.

What We Cover in Pre-Marital Work

This isn’t a checklist. It’s a conversation that goes deep.
Using Relational Life Therapy, we explore the patterns you’re bringing in, the expectations you’re carrying, and the tools you’ll need to stay connected long-term.

Together, we’ll work through:

• Communication styles and conflict patterns
• Intimacy, affection, and emotional safety
• Parenting philosophies and family systems
• Financial priorities and boundaries
• Cultural, religious, and blended family dynamics
• What to do when things get hard—and how to repair well
• 
  

This Is Especially Important If…

• One or both of you have been married before
• You’re entering a stepfamily or blended family situation
• You’re unsure how to integrate extended family or parenting roles
• You want to create a healthier legacy than what you were shown growing up

Marriage doesn’t make the relationship easier.
But it does invite you to get serious about how you grow together.

You’re Not Just Building a Wedding—You’re Building a Future

The Pre-Marital Road Map is customized to who you are, where you’ve come from, and what you want to build.

• I don’t tell you how to love.
• I help you get honest about what it’s going to take.
