However, it is less popular among prospective brides, a total of 74.4% of prospective brides do not know the benefits of premarital screening, this can affect the assessment of prospective brides on premarital screening even though premarital screening services are required by the government. This study aims to analyze the relationship between knowledge and the attitude of prospective brides regarding premarital screening. Method study is quantitative research with an observational analytical design, a cross-sectional study approach conducted on 63 samples with consecutive sampling techniques. The measurement of knowledge level and attitude uses a questionnaire and the Fisher Exact Statistics test.
