Affiance

Affiance is a service set up to give heterosexual or same sex couples who have decided to marry a chance to take 'time out' from what can be a hectic lead-in to their ceremony. This 'time-out' will take place in the company of a trained marriage facilitator who will guide you both in exploring and discussing with each other areas in your relationship which can sometimes be contentious. However it'

s not all about the serious, it's also about the fun, joy, and love in your relationship. In fact it's about the very reasons you both want to spend the rest of your lives together. The course is given by a fully qualified Life Coach and Relationship Therapist with many years experience in guiding couples on their path to marriage. More and more there is a growing need for pre-commitment courses that are secular and non-gender specific and Affiance addresses this issue. What does an 'Affiance' pre-commitment course cover? It takes place over a four hour period - morning, afternoon or evening depending on a couple's requirements. The modules covered are like the stepping stones in the photo, each leads the way to the next. They include - Family Of Origin. Defusing Conflict. How Deep Is Our Commitment. Fertility. Being Parents. A workbook is provided for the couple with an exercise relating to each of the modules in which the couple will work on in private during the course. This workbook is completely private between the couple. The facilitator is there only to facilitate dialogue between a couple around each module.
