87% of young adults plan on being married eventually and 82% expect to be married for life. Did you catch that? Almost all young adults between the ages of 18 and 30 not only aspire to eventually be married, they plan on it. The sad truth is more time and money are spent on preparation for the wedding than on the marriage.
Here are some more facts:
- 76% of married couples say they wished they would have had pre-marital education.
- 86% of Americans over 18 say all couples considering marriage should get pre-marriage education.
- Couples who do not receive pre-marriage education are more likely to see their problems as atypical and unsolvable.
- 41% of divorced couples say lack of pre-marriage education contributed to their divorce.
