Two mornings on Zoom, December 12–13. Your own Prepare/Enrich assessment and report, eight hours with a licensed therapist and a small group of couples, and a private debrief just for the two of you.
THE WEEKEND
Each topic runs the same way: a short teaching piece, a group conversation where sharing is always your choice, then twenty minutes in a private breakout room with just the two of you. I drop in on each couple.
REGISTRATION
The fee covers the full weekend for both of you. There is nothing extra to order or pay for along the way.
It’s the same Prepare/Enrich assessment, Couple Report, and counselor as the private four-session program ($1,195) — in a small group instead of one-on-one.
BEFORE YOU REGISTER
GOOD TO KNOW
No — it's relationship education, delivered in a group format. That's what makes it open to couples outside Texas and what keeps it outside insurance. If you're looking for couples therapy, that's a separate service and I'd be glad to talk with you about it.
Yes. Both partners, both mornings, all eight hours — that's the format, and it's also what the Twogether in Texas certificate requires.
Yes. It's virtual and open to couples anywhere, run on Central time. The Twogether in Texas certificate and the marriage-license discount are Texas-only — check your own county's rules if you're elsewhere.
After registration closes on November 24, once the weekend is confirmed. You’ll each get your own link and complete it separately — about 30–45 minutes — within 72 hours of receiving it, so I have time to prepare your Couple Report before December 12.
A $245 deposit holds your place, and the $400 balance is due November 24, the same day registration closes. Cancel on or before November 24 and everything you’ve paid is refunded. After November 24 there are no refunds, but you can move your registration to a later intensive. If the weekend doesn’t reach its minimum and I cancel it, everything you’ve paid is refunded in full.
The next Vows & Values™ Intensive is planned for January 9–10, 2027. Email jaye@jwcounselingtx.com to get on the January list, and I’ll let you know when registration opens. There is also the private four-session Vows & Values™ program, four two-hour sessions with me, scheduled around the two of you.
If the certificate is all you need, yes — the state's provider directory lists free and low-cost classes, and they satisfy the requirement.
This weekend is for couples who want the preparation itself: your own Prepare/Enrich results, a small group led by a licensed counselor, and a private debrief afterward. The certificate comes with it for Texas couples, but it isn't the point.
Give the marriage a weekend of your attention. Registration closes November 24.
