Better Marriages Fiesta
Better Marriages Fiesta

Is it a conference? A celebration? A weekend getaway? A fiesta (party)? YES!


If you've never attended an international conference, you will not want to miss the Fiesta this summer! It promises to be a major, energetic, high-impact event that will transform your relationship.


New this year!
  • Choose from 50 workshops on topics ranging from developing a WOW sexual relationship to developing marriage cent$ and overcoming the number one cause of divorce. We're offering three tracks: 1) couples (for couples who want to grow closer and learn new relationship skills), 2) professionals (for Leader Couples and professional marriage educators, counselors and social workers who want to learn about new resources and gain CEUs), and 3) faith-based (for individuals and couples who want to be inspired or learn strategies for reaching couples through faith communities)
  • Tell your relationship story on video. We're helping launch the Conscious Relationship World Tour in partnership with Relationship Coaching Institute and giving you the opportunity to be interviewed for the Inspirational Relationships Video Project (www.consciousrelationshipvideo.com). Reserve your interview time slot at the Fiesta!
  • Renew your marriage vows in a wedding-like setting. We're sponsoring a giveaway contest: Forever and Always: Marriage Vow Renewal. Couples in New Mexico who have been married at least five years will be invited to submit essays about why they should be selected to receive an all-expenses-paid Vow Renewal Ceremony. We'll hear many heart-felt stories of couples who are in the trenches, making their marriages work. One couple will be selected to renew their vows in the lovely courtyard at Hotel Albuquerque at Old Town on Saturday night of the Fiesta. YOU are invited to renew your vows as well and then join in a wedding-type reception and dance. Come dressed for the occasion - it will be a night to remember!
  • Meet new couples. We're partnering with local community-based couples agencies in Albuquerque in order to serve an additional 350+ local couples.
The list of nationally-known speakers and presenters is growing!

Join the excitement. Registration will be available soon!

I'm thrilled to be on this relationship journey with Greg, building a better marriage day by day. We wish for you a lifetime of love, joy and growth!
Sincerely,
Priscilla Hunt,
Executive Director
