My wife and I did this.

I recommend it. The pastor who did it went through Ephesians 5 and discussed the husband and wife's role in marriage and steps for resolving conflict.

60 percent of the time pre-marital counseling works every time.

Fiance (no pics) and I have our first meeting with the minister for pre-marriage counseling. What kinda stuff should I/we expect?
Why do you feel you need this counciling? Marriage is a huge gamble dude, and work. Good luck.

Boredom punctuated with moments of extreme embarassment.

This is where you hash out your expectations for anal and BJs.

True story, the couple that led our marriage counseling class had just been married like under a year and she was pregnant. Just barely, but the whole class she was rubbing her stomach. I guess you had to be there, but we kept getting into group sessions and everyone would always talk about how awkward it was the chick talking about not having pre-marital sex was pregnant and trying to hide it.

The class I took was mostly what you'd expect from a church led class, some of the couples were fun though so it wasn't that bad.

We did ours with a couple who had been married for like 20 years. They were awesome and we enjoyed it.
