Thinking of settling down to a happily ever after? This premarital counselling course may just be for you! If you are intending to settle down with your partner and would like to find out how to bridge possible gaps with your spouse-to-be, read on to find out more!

Key Highlights

No personal sharing involved during group sessions
Secular sessions
Customized couple sessions
Hands-on activities
Couple sessions booked at your convenience

This programme is for you and your partner if:

Both of you are ready for a lifetime commitment
Both of you would like to forge a deeper understanding towards each other
Both of you are open to exploring and reconciling possible areas of disagreements
Both of you are planning to get married, or have recently gotten married

Are you wondering if you and your partner should attend the course?

It is important for couples to ask each other key questions regarding various aspects of the marriage. By discussing these topics and coming to a conclusion about how the both of you will handle it together, it lays a stronger foundation for the marriage and assuages potential rifts in the future:

When are we starting a family? How many children shall we have?
How do I want my partner to support me if my in-laws are putting pressure on me?
How much money shall we save before it is considered comfortable enough?
Who is in charge of making monetary decisions after our marriage?
I have to travel frequently for my job, am I willing to change for my partner because he/ she doesn’t like it?
Will I want my partner to continue keeping in contact with his/ her previous partner?
Am I willing to be open with my partner in the event that I am attracted to another member of the opposite sex?
What happens if I find out that my partner is cheating on me?
If my partner and I get into a huge argument, how will I want to resolve it?
Do I need some time alone to calm down after getting into an argument with my partner?

If you have yet to ask your partner the above questions, or if you and your partner have discussed the above but yet to see eye to eye, then this premarital programme is highly recommended for you.
