Marriage isn’t always easy, but it can be truly amazing!
Just like anything valuable in life, a thriving marriage requires intentional care and regular maintenance—things like counseling, marriage seminars, and dedicated time away together. Think of it like a fine vehicle: without routine oil changes and checkups, even the strongest engine begins to wear down. Your marriage deserves that same proactive investment and care.
Inspired by our own personal journey, James and I felt called to encourage couples to actively fight for their relationships. After much prayer and submission, we founded the Fighting for Marriages Couples Retreat in 2018 in Birmingham, AL.
To ensure an intimate, personalized experience, each retreat welcomes around 14 to 18 couples. We’ve had the opportunity to host couples across every season of life—ranging from newlyweds married just 1 month to seasoned couples celebrating over 42 years together. That deep impact is why so many couples return year after year, boasting an impressive 75% to 80% return rate that turns retreat guests into a lasting family.
Through dynamic group discussions, inspiring speakers, dedicated husband-only and wife-only sessions, fun games, and structured activities, we provide the practical tools and space needed to reconnect.
If your marriage could benefit from a weekend of revitalization, fun, laughter, and renewed focus, this retreat is for you!

Registration remains open until all available spots are filled. Because retreat space is strictly limited to preserve an intimate environment, we encourage booking early. To verify current availability, please email us at fighting4marriages@gmail.com.

Your registration fee secures your spot and includes exclusive access to our venue, opening night dinner, retreat materials, and offsets operational and speaker costs. (Note: Room fees and lodging schedules are detailed separately during the booking process).
3. What is the cancellation and refund policy? +
The registration deposit is non-refundable. However, if an unforeseen circumstance prevents you from attending, you may transfer your registration to another couple if time permits. Please contact us directly at fighting4marriages@gmail.com to discuss your options.
4. Can we choose to stay at a different hotel? +
No, staying off-site is not an option. Staying on-site together is an essential part of the retreat experience, as it fosters organic bonding and community with other couples without travel distractions. Activities begin early in the morning and often extend into late-night fellowship.
5. Can engaged or dating couples attend? +
Our retreats are specifically formatted for legally married couples. We also welcome separated couples who are actively working toward reconciliation. On rare occasions, exception may be made for an engaged couple. Please email fighting4marriages@gmail.com to inquire about special circumstances.

No, children are not permitted at the retreat, and the venue does not accommodate them. We ask that you treat this retreat as a dedicated, distraction-free getaway for you and your spouse to focus entirely on renewing your marriage and strengthening your partnership.
7. Is it okay to arrive late, leave early, or miss a session? +
While full attendance across all days is strongly recommended to receive the complete retreat experience, we understand that emergencies or scheduling conflicts occur. If you need to arrive late or depart early, please inform the hosts as early as possible.
8. Will we be required to share personal or intimate details about our relationship? +
No, absolutely not. You will never be forced or pressured to share personal intimate details. While group discussions provide a supportive space where many couples find encouragement, your personal comfort and privacy are always respected.

No, absolutely not. This retreat is not designed to single out, criticize, or condemn either spouse. We maintain a positive, balanced, and uplifting environment dedicated to honoring and strengthening both husbands and wives equally.
10. Is this retreat affiliated with a specific church or denomination? +
No, Fighting for Marriages is an independent, non-denominational ministry. While our retreats are faith-grounded and divinely inspired, session content focuses on practical relationship application rather than formal theological presentations. Couples from all backgrounds are welcome.
