Ours was once a week for 5 weeks - 2 hour class each time. You're supposed to do the pre-cana within 6 months of the wedding date so be sure to double check with your church that it's ok you're doing it early.

We did pre-cana at St. Patrick in Bay Shore but we are getting married at St. Anne's in Brentwood.
We paid $75 since we weren't getting married at St. Patrick. It was 8-4 on Saturday, 830-2 (estimated) by the time we got out of the mass and got our certificates.
They provided breakfast on Sat and Sun. And provided lunch on Saturday.
We were told that they only do the pre-cana 2x a year. There were close to 33 couples at the last session.

Re: pre-cana?
It deff depends on the church, some people have done crash PreCana (a days worth for 7 hours) while others do a few weekends for a month or two.
