Most of the mylotters here are married & some are in the line to get married.Were/are you prepared for the marriage? Did/do you feel how to go about it after the marriage? Did/do you prepare for a good marriage? For me I did not prepare before my marriage.I did not even think what to do.I think if you could know your significant other before the marriage then you can plan for your good marriage , but without knowing , you really cant plan as you would not be knowing the likes & dislikes of your partner. Your thoughts....

The problem is that most people think in preparing for their marriage, they have to dig up uncomfortable feelings or try to fix things.. that is not the case.... there are now programs where you can just get practical tools that will help you to get married with your eyes wide open!!! Its much more simple and painless then most people think and it makes a WORLD of a difference in the success and overall happiness you will get to experience in your marriage! Lots of Love, Cory B Honickman

My wedding reception was fine, not too expensive, but we had some photo albums to remember the moment, wedding cake, a restaurant where we held it though it was not big. Me myself loved it a lot.

I'm not married yet, wish me to prepare a marriage, i can ask my friends who already get married, so i can have little prepare for it, when entering serious relationship, of course there's a need, a deepest need of knowing about who the real your partner is, but if you face the marriage period, it is still breathtaking, i guess

Marriages happen in heaven they say,is this apt to say nowadays.Till date the marriages I have seen are pretty good and well arranged,the success behind all this final day of commitment,come through lot of dedication by everyone associated with the bride or groom.planning is the most ideal part,the timings have to be well sorted out.If things go wrong,many feel so disappointed that they feel they not suitable for marriages. I do have a lot of time left for mine to happen,but I give good luck to all who are engaged in this holy tag called Marriage,to you to Krupesh.

I was prepared in some ways and other ways, I was not. We discussed many things and talked about future plans for our family, but some things in life just surprise you no matter how prepared you think that you are. my husband is a wondeful man, and knew we were meant to be together thr first time I saw him, but there are some things that just takle getting used to in every relationship. For example, my idea of winding down after a day of work is to sit down and discuss the day, at least the things that need discussing, his idea is to take 30 minutes for himself before doing anything else. It is a compromise for us. I give him his 30 minutes and then we talk.

We did not prepared well about the plans of how it will be, we just see ourselves to go to judge that will conduct the rights of our marriage. We invited our sponsors into the rights of wedding ceremony and after an hour we've finished. A very simple way of wedding. This is our first wedding. The same also in our second wedding at the church simple. A good plan in celebrating marriage is good but this is not a base to serve as you have good standing of marriage relationship with your spouse forever. Well it is good to be like that. It is also a commitment to your partner and to your family to be.

Yes you are very right. I do think preparing for married life is a good and sensible thing to do and probably helps to make a marriage more successful. I cannot imagine marrying someone that I did not know beforehand. I guess in some parts of the world people do still get married without knowing their partner properly, and sometimes without knowing their partner at all. I think that is taking a massive risk.

Hi Krupesh, Mine was still worse in the sense I was not at all prepared for my marriage but just prior to my marriage I saw a girl and liked her and my friends insisted that I married her. I had no enough funding but within a month I brought her home following all marriage rituals. Funny na?

Marriage should be held only once in a life time. So i think we must preparing for it as perfect as we can do. Actually i'm planning to get married on next year. I hope everything will be going as my planning. That's why i'm now preparing everything for my marriage next year. Actually so far i haven't preparing anything unless spirit. I think the most important thing is to understanding about our couple more than before. Family living is totally different with when we are still in relationship like now. There would be many problems. So we must get ready and preventing from now on. About the marriage itself, it's not a big problem because it's only marriage party's rundown to make. I think it's not a hard thing for making the rundown. But most of all, the most important thing is on ourselves preparation for living with our couple. A new chapter in our life will be beginning once we get married. Good luck and have a nice day. Happy mylotting.
