wedding

If you are thinking of getting married be sure to seek pre-marital counseling. Most pastors will require it before performing the ceremony, but dont be afraid to seek counsel from multiple sources.

In addition to actual counseling, your parents and other older adults who have marriage experience could be a great resource for you.

Talk about subjects that you may not want to. Discuss children, sex, and finances. Its important to not leave any stone unturned because once you say I do you need to be on the same page.

Wedding planning is fun but stressful. In many ways it is your first project as a married couple. Use that time to learn more about how to please each other and deal with tough situations.

Budgets arent romantic, but money is important. It can either be a non-issue or the biggest issue. Be sure that you both know how you will handle this topic in your marriage.

You are making a lifetime commitment, be sure to pray your way through it!

Marriage is wonderful, but nearly all couples struggle with getting enough time alone. Take advantage of the time you have prior to marriage and enjoy it.

Its no secret that figuring out how to spend the holidays with family is one of the most stressful parts of marriage. Discuss this and make a plan before its too late! Talk it over with your family so that they know the plan and it will make your first year of marital bliss even more blissful.

If there is anything you havent discussed, now is the time. Certain things are difficult to bring up when dating, but when you are preparing to make a lifetime commitment it is important to know as much as you can about each other.

Wedding season can be stressful, dont forget to enjoy it and enjoy each other! Marriage is wonderful and the right attitude can make the difficult times easier!
