What We Do
Wedded Bliss Foundation (WBF) is a community-based organization helping teens, singles, and couples develop healthy relationships and healthy marriages to improve their lives, better the outcomes for their children, and create stronger communities. Our work was featured on CNN's Black in America 2 in 2009 to rave reviews. Since 2001 we've worked with underserved communities to strengthen families. We've helped couples in the worst conditions of their relationships. We can help you too. Our signature program is Black Marriage Day, celebrated every year in March. Join the fun and get involved. Visit the site for more info. WBF also provides professional training and technical assistance to groups and organizations interested in strengthening marriage in the Black community. Wedded Bliss can be yours and we can show you how. For info on how we can serve you, email info@weddedblissinc.com

WHAT COUPLES SAY ABOUT WEDDED BLISS
Harrison and Denise
Wedded Bliss saved our relationship before we could even get to marriage. We were at rock bottom with no place else to go but splitsville. Nisa and Jamil helped us see the light and gave us hope. They helped us achieve wedded bliss. Their classes are for couples in trouble and those who need repair. You don't have to be married to use them.
Abdul Kareem and Rashidah
We attended a session and we learned so much and it was so helpful that we have recommended it to all of our friends.
Steven and Natalie
I didn't want to go to marriage class but Natalie said it would help our marriage. She was right. The classes were fun, the info was beneficial and we are closer than we've ever been. If you are in love and trouble, don't wait. Contact Dr. Nisa Muhammad and get the help you need.
