Divining Weddings - Premarital Counseling

Based in Great Barrington, MA, Divining Weddings - Premarital Counseling is an officiant service led by Mary, an Interfaith Minister, Certified Exceptional Marriage Mentor, and experienced intimacy coach. The practice focuses on helping couples prepare for married life through comprehensive guidance and counseling that extends beyond the wedding day itself. Mary brings decades of experience in couples and individual counseling, combined with a lifelong interest in meditation and embodiment practices including qigong and yoga. Her approach centers on helping couples identify their individual hopes and dreams, express them meaningfully in their wedding ceremony, and build them into a lasting connection. She works with couples to create ceremonies that reflect their unique relationship and set the foundation for their shared future. The service begins with a Discovery Session where couples can meet Mary and discuss their particular intentions, varying spiritual backgrounds, and how they wish to intertwine them into their wedding and life together. Throughout the process, Mary guides couples in choosing and creating vows that express what makes their relationship unique, while providing the counseling and support needed to build a foundation for deep connection and intimacy in their marriage.
