Are you walking into marriage with your eyes open?
Your bridesmaids might not tell you, but the price of your wedding dress isn’t the only thing that may shock you about wedded bliss. During the first year of marriage, you’re likely to face all kinds of surprises—from your in-laws’ strange traditions to your groom’s annoying tendencies. That’s why getting good advice early can help you manage expectations and encourage communication about key issues you may face as an engaged or newly married couple.
The Savvy Bride’s Answer Guide provides this advice from a team you can trust: professional counselors at Focus on the Family. You’ll get the real story on questions like:
- What does it mean to be a wife?
- Why isn’t my husband the person I thought he was?
- Why won’t he talk to me?
- What does he want from our love life?
Based on the popular Complete Guide to the First Five Years of Marriage, this friendly resource will smooth the road whether you’ve been engaged for ten minutes or married for ten months.
