Getting Married




Love-Wedding-Marriage

Expectations- when people marry they have certain expectations about what their life will be like as a married person. People tend to believe that they will be happy, their spouse will be faithful and that it will last forever. This could be a problem because at times many couples have too high expectations in  their spouse, if they believe that their spouse will always put the toilet seat down or put the cap back on the toothpaste, they are setting themselves up for disappointment. A wise older woman once said, something along the lines of my standards where always high, I just lowered my expectations.

The Wedding

A public ceremony that validates and celebrates a couples marriage. interestingly enough in the United States the wedding has become a lucrative business as well as an elaborate affair.

*interesting fact- the average wedding cost in the United States cost $27,800 WOW- that is not including the "destination wedding"

an elaborate wedding can cause tension between the bride and her fiance and even the families of both.


Adjusting to Marriage

Women are more likely than men to have their contracts violated.
