You are Planning a Beautiful Wedding

Are you also planning for a beautiful marriage?

Most couples spend tons of time planning for one day,

but little to no time planning for the decades that follow.

Am I choosing the right person?  Am I being the right partner? Do we need to talk about money?  What happens if we fight?  Will we always be attracted to each other?  What does two becoming one actually mean?  Do we want a family?  Will my friends change?

Am I choosing the right person?

Am I being the right partner?

Do we need to talk about money?

What happens if we fight?

Will we always be attracted to each other?

What does two becoming one actually mean?

Do we want a family?

Will my friends change?

When almost half of marriages end in divorce,

do eveything you can to be on the right side of those statistics.

Watching friends and family members get divorced, your heart starts to sink. You may find yourself asking, "Why does this keep happening?".

Until now you've had two options as an engaged couple: Premarital Counseling Often rooted in religious settings and can be deeply meaningful... if it fits your journey. However, it’s not for every couple, and not everyone has access to it.   Marriage Counseling Incredibly valuable for healing and repair. However, you’re just starting out - you’re not fixing something broken, you’re building something strong.

In this episode of Founders Future, with host Milan Kohut, Tonia Koss shares her unique founder journey—from teaching and sales to ministry, and ultimately building Preaisle, a pre-marriage coaching business designed to help engaged couples create strong, intentional foundations before they say “I do.” Drawing from over 30 years of marriage and deep experience in communication and education, Tonia explains how her “Commitment Conversations” guide couples through self-awareness, core desires, and the often-avoided topics of money, intimacy, and spirituality.  Throughout the conversation, Tonia opens up about building a values-driven, service-based business as a solopreneur, the importance of systems, and the challenges of marketing something many people don’t yet realize they need. She also discusses scaling with integrity, balancing impact with sustainability, and why holding your vision loosely allows room for growth. This episode offers thoughtful insights for founders building human-centered businesses—and for anyone who believes strong relationships are built through honest conversations, not assumptions.

Working with Tonia was such a wonderful experience. She created a space where we could have really meaningful conversations about the big things in our relationship while still keeping the sessions fun and relaxed. We laughed a lot during our meetings, which made it easy to open up and talk honestly.    She guided us through important topics and helped us communicate in ways that strengthened our understanding of each other. Every session felt productive, and we always left feeling more connected and even more in love.    We’re so grateful for the experience and would highly recommend her to any couple preparing for marriage!

In this episode of 52 'Til I Do, I had the joy of joining hosts Laura and Amethyst to talk about one of the most overlooked, but powerful, parts of wedding prep: preparing for your marriage.  We explore:  💬 What premarriage coaching really is  💞 How Preaisle helps couples deepen their connection  📣 Real stories from engaged couples   💡 Why communication and self-awareness matter before “I do”  Wedding planning is exciting—but what about the lifelong commitment that comes after? This conversation is full of insight for couples who want to start their marriage with a strong foundation.
In this episode, I’m introducing you to Tonia Koss, founder of Pre-Aisle, where she mentors engaged couples as they prepare for marriage. I’ve known Tonia for many years, and she’s been a guiding light in my own life, helping me uncover my God-given gifts and showing me how to use them beautifully.  Her gift is exactly how she leads couples: helping them discover who they are individually, so they can step into marriage fully prepared and aligned. One thing she said that really stuck with me:  “Most couples spend more time planning the wedding than the marriage.”  In this episode, we talk about: • How she helps couples uncover their God-given gifts • The heart work that strengthens marriages before the wedding • Lessons I learned from her personally that changed my path • Why preparing for marriage is just as important as the big day  If you’ve ever wondered how to show up fully for yourself and for the person you’re marrying...this is the episode for you!
In this episode of From Scratch, we sit down with Tonia Koss, a pre-marriage coach based in Plainfield, Illinois, whose journey is anything but ordinary.

She shares the struggles, setbacks, and soul-searching moments that led her to help others build lasting relationships. Whether you're single, dating, engaged, or simply passionate about personal growth, this episode is filled with authentic wisdom and real-life experience.  🎧 Hear how Tonia’s career path was never linear, but always meaningful. ❤️ Learn why understanding yourself is the key to loving someone else. 📍Discover the small-town values she still holds onto — and how they shaped her coaching today.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best timing to go through all three sessions together?

Each session builds onto the next. Do not rush through them (binging is not recommended). Complete one session, then give yourselves a week or two in-between to do the homework and talk more about the session before jumping into the next.

Should we wait to do our sessions until we are closer to our wedding date?

The best time is when you are feeling excited about your engagement, but not too stressed about wedding planning. Find that sweet spot after the initial decisions are made and before the last-minute wedding craziness. You'll want to enjoy this time together!

We already have a really strong relationship. Are you sure we need this?

Absolutely. Having deep conversations is part of experiencing a strong marriage. The strongest of couples will have a fun time working together through the sessions and learning more.

What if we don't get our sessions all completed before our wedding?

That could happen! Wedding planning is a LOT. If you still have part of your sessions to complete, make it a goal to complete them soon after your wedding. All of the information will still be relevant.

What if some of these conversations feel hard or uncomfortable?

I hope some of them are! That means you are going deeper together and are willing to get uncomfortable. Lean in and embrace that feeling with the person you love the most.

How do the sessions actually work? Is it timed or at our own pace?

You will be given access to a membership area where your course is located. You will set up a password and can log in at anytime, going at your own pace. It is created simply step-by-step.
