The holiday season is the time that most marriage engagements take place, so they say! I was engaged at Christmas time as well. It is a time of year that everyone is more upbeat than any other time of year, but it is also the most stressful time of year. Hopefully your engagement received the attention it deserves. So Congratulations! Some of you have been planning your wedding day for years and others have not given it much thought. I have been working with couples for many years (and love it!). The wedding has not changed that much but the planning and couple’s living arrangements have. I am a minister/officiate. Ministering to couples these past 16 years coordinating and officiating their wedding ceremonies. Designing and planning ceremonies to reflect their wishes and desires. I also teach a Celebrant Training course online at Global Ministries University. Before this time, I was an bridal consultant, event planner and florist. I also worked in other wedding related businesses. My intention for this bog in 2017 is to assist couples with their wedding. Here are some items for you to think about until my next blog. How long would you like to be engaged? Would you like a church wedding? If so you usually have to belong to a church so join now! Would you like to have your wedding out of doors? How many guests will you be inviting to your wedding? And the number 1 questions.... What is your budget? Who will be paying for the wedding? P.S. You are welcome to asked questions in the comments.... I do not know who wrote this piece, I found it on my Facebook page one day and would like to share it with you.....
Most people get married believing a myth that marriage is a beautiful box full of all the things they have longed for; companionship, intimacy, friendship etc. The truth is that marriage at the start is an empty box. You must put something in before you can take anything out. There is no love in marriage. Love is in people. And people put love in marriage. There is no romance in marriage. You have to infuse it into your marriage. A couple must learn the art and form the habit of giving, loving, serving, praising, of keeping the box full. If you take out more than you put in, the box will be empty. I received this good advice from Barbara Baxter (contact information below)
and wanted to share it with you. Tying the Financial Knot Wedding season is right around the corner, and if your summer plans include exchanging vows with the love of your life - or celebrating with a child or grandchild who's getting married - it probably comes with a hefty price tag. The average cost of a wedding in 2014 was $31,213, an all-time high recorded by The Knot's annual Real Weddings Study. And that's not including the honeymoon! But there is much more to consider beyond just the costs of the ceremony, reception and honeymoon. Once the wedding to-do list wraps up, couples need to turn to getting their house - especially their financial house - in order. Even if you said "I do" years ago, the following checklist can help couples work through the financial red tape of a marriage to ensure their lives together are in financial unison.
If you or someone you know has recently become engaged or married, give a gift that's not on the department store registry - a financial consultation. Or even if you've been married for a long time now, we'd still love to help you or a loved one renew your financial plans together. Call our office to schedule an appointment.
