According to God a Christian man and a Christian woman after being married should not divorce. There is an exception and that exception is for Adultery or sexual disbehavior (Matthew 19:9). But The Bible tells us that even in the case of one or the other party committing adultery there should be every attempt made to reconcile the marriage until one or the other party makes it an impossibility to reconcile. One other exception found in I Corinthians 7:12-16 tells us that a Christian person who marries an unbeliever can divorce that unbeliever if it become impossible to keep the marriage together. This is one good reason for a believer not to marry an unbeliever, "Do not be unequally yoke". There are a lot of warnings about believers divorcing and it would serve you well to find out what they are if you are considering a divorce.

With divorce being on the rise and spur of the moment marriages being thrown away like a gum wrapper should it be harder to get married like counseling and what not be attending before marriage?

Your question is worded a bit odd near the end , but if you mean should people attend marriage counseling yes. 50% of first marriages divorce and 60% of 2nd marriages divorce, but couples in counseling have far higher chances. The key is "...my people are destroyed for lack of knowledge..." according to the Bible , People hop in a relationship without any knowledge of how a relationship should really work, and of course everyone and there dog feels like they do. And because of no proper knowledge of how to handle it, the relationship is destroyed...
