All Aboard the Wedding Train!
"A wedding should be fun, but you've got to plan for the day after because that begins your life together. Talk about how you're going to live together: in-laws, kids, geography, religion, sex and division of labor. If you have the same expectations, OK. If not, you've got to negotiate a middle ground." -Phil McGraw, aka Dr. Phil
Say what you want about Dr. Phil, but personally, I think he's got this one dead on. I have to say, I'm not a huge fan of the guy normally. He reminds me too much of a muppet and I swear he's got a caterpillar growing under his nose, but all that aside, sometimes he gives out some good advice.
A wedding should be awesome. It's a celebration!! Just remember there's going to be a day after the wedding. Before you jump on the marriage train, stop and think about all the stuff involved with being married. The certain sacrifices you may have to make, shared expenses, children (if you plan on having them), family obligations, etc. that come with being married. I'm not trying to say that any of this is bad necessarily, but it's not for everyone. Don't get so excited about one day that you forget about the rest of your life. After you've thought about all that and are still on board then go have yourself one heck of a party!
