Choose a Program

Never Been Married

If neither of you have been married before (and you don't have children from previous relationships), you have the option of selecting a Resident Weekend or a Commuter Weekend.

We also recommend a Resident Weekend or Commuter Weekend for couples where one or both have been married previously but have no children from previous relationships.

Visit Resident Weekend or Commuter Weekend for more information about these programs, including topics, locations and fees.

Already Married To Each Other Civilly

If you have been married civilly and are now having your marriage blessed in the Church, we recommend you choose a Convalidation program (follow link for locations and program fee).

Couples with Children from Previous Relationships

If one or both of you have children from previous relationships, we recommend that you choose a Re-Marriage program (follow link for locations and program fee), which discusses blending of families.
