Pre-Marital Counseling


Our Premarital Counseling ministry here at Saddleback is designed for you and your partner to gain greater insight into a Christ-centered marriage that prepares you both for the journey you are about to embark on with one another.

Your Decision To Marry Is A Commitment



We’re excited to have the opportunity to invest in this commitment and your upcoming marriage. Our premarital counseling is offered to members and non-members of Saddleback Church.

If you would like to be married at Saddleback Church or desire a Saddleback minister to officiate your wedding ceremony, you must complete our premarital counseling program.

To begin the process, please complete the Wedding Information Form, and both the bride and groom questionnaires. Please contact us to schedule a premarital interview. Interviews are scheduled Monday through Thursday between 10:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.

Your premarital interview must be scheduled at least four months prior to your wedding date.
