 The Marriage Plan ~ Die Huweliksplan

Don’t leave your marriage to chance.
 

Verlief, verloof... verward? | Voor jy “Ja” sê... || In love, engaged… confused? | Before you say "Yes"...

~Clarity. Courage. Commitment.~

The SF Marriage Plan is a two-session, pre-wedding alignment process designed to help smart, modern couples build a strong foundation — before they say "I do."

Because the wedding is one day.
The marriage is for life.

What Is the Marriage Plan?

This is not therapy.
This is not a lecture.

This is a guided, honest conversation that gives couples the space, language, and structure to talk about the things that really matter — before marriage brings them front and centre.

Together, we explore:

  • Communication styles

  • Conflict resolution

  • Division of responsibilities

  • Expectations around intimacy, time, money, family, pets, children, and more

  • Non-negotiables & shared values

  • Boundaries, belief systems & future goals

Format of the Sessions

Session 1: Real Talk & Raw Truths
We unpack what matters most, using an interactive workbook that prompts deep questions, values alignment, and honest reflection. No scripts. No assumptions.

Session 2: Aligning for Action
We clarify sticking points, highlight alignment, and finalise your shared Marriage Plan.

The goal isn’t perfection — it’s clarity and connection.

All sessions are 90 minutes, conducted online via WhatsApp or Google Meet.

Why This Matters

Because no one gets married thinking they’ll fall apart.
But most couples never have these conversations — until it’s too late.

This process isn’t heavy. It’s empowering. It’s preventative. It’s real.
It’s the best investment you’ll make in your future together.

~Frequently Asked Questions~

Q: Is this couples therapy? A: No. This isn’t therapy. It’s not designed to unpack childhood wounds or past trauma. This is a future-focused planning tool — for healthy couples who want clarity before marriage. It’s structured, empowering, and supportive.

Q: What if we don’t agree on everything? A: Perfect. That’s exactly why this exists. This process isn’t about forcing agreement — it’s about finding clarity. You’ll walk away knowing where you align, where you don’t, and what that means going forward.

Q: Do we have to be religious? A: Not at all. This process is values-based, not faith-based. Whether you’re spiritual, secular, or somewhere in-between, the questions are relevant, thoughtful, and respectful of all belief systems.

Q: Can we do this if we’ve already been married before? A: Absolutely. In fact, many second-time couples benefit even more — they know what they want, what didn’t work last time, and they want to start this chapter intentionally.

Q: What if we’re already married or living together? A: This is a brilliant reset. Whether you’re engaged, married, or just serious about forever, the Marriage Plan gives you a powerful roadmap for aligning again — or realigning when life shifts.

Q: Can we do it in Afrikaans? A: Yes — fully Afrikaans sessions are available on request, and an Afrikaans version of the workbook is in development.
