How Long Is Catholic Pre Cana?

How long does it take to complete the program? The length of time to complete the program varies from couple to couple. Some couples choose to work through it in a weekend, some take a month to finish. The total amount of time is about 8 hours.

When should you do Pre-Cana?

Although the particulars and requirements can vary and it's best to check with the parish where you plan to be married, the Catholic Church commonly recommends that you complete your Pre-Cana program six months prior to your wedding date.

How many hours is Pre-Cana?

Our Pre-Cana course was one full day, beginning at 9am and running until about 3pm. Many churches will split this over multiple days (as either a weekend retreat or just multiple sessions) or even require you to attend a course over a six-month period of time.
