Looking for a pre-marital retreat!!

My Fiancée and I have friends who went on a Catholic pre-marital retreat. We are not Catholic, but love the idea of going on a weekend retreat with other engaged couples for premarital counseling. Does anyone know of any Christian pre-marital retreats? (preferably in the Mid-Atlantic region?)

    We are not Catholic either and did Engaged Encounters, which is Catholic based.   We really enjoyed it and it was a whole weekend to just concentrate on us.  It was in Gaithersburg, but they also have weekends in Baltimore.  Visit the website.  Any questions, page me!http://www.dcengagedencounter.org/Scheduled_Weekends.asphttp://www.mdcee.org/index.php?Events

    I just attended the Catholic Engaged Encounter in Baltimore this past weekend and had a really great experience there.  There were 12 couples at ours and I think all of them had at least one Catholic partner, but I know you don't need to be Catholic to sign up.  I don't know of any weekend retreats that aren't CEE.We really got a lot out of our weekend.  Good luck finding something!

    I also did the Engaged Encounter weekend but down in Virginia Beach. It was such a great experience.

    Thanks everyone for the suggestions. The Engaged Encounters dates don't seem to work for our tight timeframe (Feb 6th!). Someone suggested FamilyLife's a Weekend to Remember, which has breakout sessions for pre-marriage couples. There is one next weekend in Williamsburg that we are considering. Has anyone heard anything about this retreat? Thanks again!! Rob
