We invest in things that matter...
"Marriage Prep was incredibly beneficial. It opened us up to conversations that we would've never even thought about having. Conversations that we still have as a married couple."
Dylan — Brooklyn, NY
"If I am honest, I did not want anything to do with marriage coaching, but The Meaningful Marriage not only got me to a place where I didn't mind showing up...I looked forward to it. We learned so much and actually enjoyed it."
Branden — Kalamazoo, MI
"We loved how The Meaningful Marriage topics evolved overtime. From learning about each other’s love languages to the way that we communicate with each other during times of conflict and joy."
Megan — Chicago, IL
"Mark & Ashley actually made Marriage Prep (pre-marital counseling) fun and enjoyable. They have a way of making you feel comfortable and not judged ever. Forever our go to when we're seeking help in our relationship."
Amelia — Kalamazoo, MI
"The Marriage Prep program helped us enter into the happiest time of our lives feeling organized, prepared, and having clarity for the life we want to build together."
Lauren — Des Moines, IA
"The program really challenges you—that’s the great thing about it. Coming into a marriage everybody is in a different place—The Meaningful Marriage allowed us to unpack those differences and grow much closer as a couple."
Alex — Chicago, IL
"I think this program was great. If I didn’t, we wouldn’t have kept coming back to it. I was not excited about this at all at first, but found it to be very helpful. It was worth my time — and I don’t say that often."
Nate — Grand Rapids, MI
"It was like a curated survival guide for navigating important topics in a relationship and marriage: communication, money, religion, family, etc. We cannot recommend this program enough!"
JD — Oakland, CA
"Marriage Prep helped us to understand the ways our personalities and upbringings differ, and how to navigate those differences as a married couple."
Courtney — Brooklyn, NY

Our Story...
Ashley and I had been happily married for 7 years, when all of a sudden our reality didn’t match our expectations as a result of misguided beliefs about marriage. When I say “all of a sudden,” that is only how it felt. The reality is we experienced a slow decline and distance between us based on the lies we believed about having found the perfect match and having a love that would last a lifetime.
The worst part...we worked at a church! To be clear, working at a church was not the bad part, but having a bad marriage while working at a church is an impossibly difficult and lonely place to be.
So...we went to work on our marriage and created a program to help other couples. The Meaningful Marriage is a result of countless conversations within our own 15+ years of marriage and with 100s of other couples to not only better understand why over 50% of marriages end in divorce, but what we could do about it. In our courses, you will experience Mark’s expertise in coaching, Ashley’s eye for design and functionality, and our combined passion for helping couples succeed.
Tips, tricks, hacks, and tools are typically short term solutions to a way bigger problem…our beliefs about marriage. We developed The Meaningful Marriage as a direct antidote to the key issues facing marriage and how we can combat them in our own relationships. Our courses are designed to set couples up for success and a life long “meaningful” marriage.
Every relationship has ups and downs, but it's never too late to invest and build your roadmap to a Meaningful Marriage!
Our MARRIAGE REFRESH video course will highlight key areas to improve i.e. managing conflict, building trust, and planning for a brighter future with your spouse!
Through a series of short videos and interviews with couples who have gone from BLAH life to BEST life we will guide you through the necessary conversations to give your marriage the best path for happiness and fulfillment.
