Richmond Engaged Encounter

Weekend Cost

The total cost for your CEE weekend is $290 per couple. Your payment covers lodging on Friday and Saturday nights, meals on Saturday (3) and Sunday (2), and all materials. Separate overnight accommodations are provided for you and your fiancée. Please be aware that you may have a roommate. Payment in full is required with your reservation. A fee of $100 is withheld for any cancellation made less than five days prior to the start of the retreat. The full $290 is withheld in the event that you do not notify us and do not attend. Smoking accommodations are not guaranteed. Couples who are experiencing financial hardship should contact the registration team for information regarding assistance.

When should we register?

Registrations are done on a first-come, first-served basis. Space is limited. We suggest you book your weekend three months in advance. We also recommend that you attend a weekend two to twelve months before your wedding day.

The FOCCUS Inventory

The Diocese of Richmond includes a pre-marital inventory as part of the marriage preparation process. If your parish would like Richmond Catholic Engaged Encounter to administer the FOCCUS Pre-Marital Inventory as part of your weekend please complete this form: CEE FOCCUS REGISTRATION FORM. You will need to arrive at the CEE site prior to the beginning of the weekend (6:30 p.m.) with a $20 check payable to FOCCUS, Inc. The results will be sent to your Parish for follow-up.

The weekend is full - what do we do?

Unfortunately space is limited at our weekends. We can put couples on a waiting list, but few spots usually open up. We understand that we were suggested as a way to meet the "formation team" component of your marriage preparation, and suggest that you first look at available weekends at neighboring Engaged Encounter communities. Look under our Links section. If this does not work the best guide for alternatives is the priest or deacon that is going to marry you.
