A wedding day is one day – a marriage is a
lifetime |

You have probably already spent many hours planning your
wedding. There are so many things to think about: the dress, the cake, whom
to invite, the honeymoon. All of these are important, but the wedding is just
one day, while the marriage should last for the rest of your lives. Alongside the wedding
preparations, it is also important to spend time as a couple talking through
your expectations of marriage. However much you think you have in common, you
are still two separate individuals with different backgrounds, personalities,
experiences, hopes and fears. The minister who is talking your service will
probably want to spend time with you, talking through these issues. Churches sometimes offer marriage preparation, perhaps as part of a group with other couples. This gives you an opportunity to think through possible areas of difficulty, and how to handle them as a couple. Such topics might include: ● Communication ● Money ● Coping
with conflict ● Sex ● In-laws
and family issues ● Children All of us in the Medlock Head
Team Ministry hope that you have a wonderful wedding day, and that it will
mark the beginning of a long and very happy marriage. |
