I've already attended the Weekend to Remember. Is it going to be the same next time?
Though the content remains the same, each speaker is different in how he or she presents it.  Even though the content remains basically unchanged because it's time-tested information, due to different speakers and different seasons of marriage, you will gain something different each time you attend.

How do I give a getaway registration to someone?
That's easy. Go to Gift certificates

What is the benefit of this getaway?
There are many benefits to a marriage getaway. It's an opportunity for you and your spouse to get away from life's distractions and just focus on each other. This gives you opportunities to talk about things you would not otherwise discuss that are important for developing your relationship. You have the chance to listen to gifted speakers talk about things that every couple faces, learn time-tested tools to help strengthen your marriage and hear real life stories from the speakers about their own marriages. Couple's Projects are used to apply the truths in practical ways to your own marriage during and after the weekend. Also, the "date night" on Saturday offers you and your spouse the opportunity to spend a romantic evening alone.

What do I do if we need to cancel or change our getaway date?
For help with reservations, cancellations or a change in plans, call 1-800-FL-TODAY. You may transfer your registration to another getaway or request a refund no later than seven days after the getaway date you were registered to attend. For refunds, the registration fee is refundable minus a $30 per couple processing fee. There is no additional charge to transfer to another Weekend to Remember getaway.

Do you honor an unconditional money-back guarantee?
If, after attending Weekend to Remember, you don’t agree that it was one of the finest investments you could make in your marriage, the full registration fee will be refunded upon written request no later than 14 days after the first getaway you attended.
