Every engaged and newlywed couple needs this guide!

If you know anyone who's newly-engaged or just married, get them this book! It helps them prepare for LIFE AFTER THE WEDDING, which a lot of couples don't really talk about, as distracted as they are with the wedding plans. This book makes the look ahead to 'what are we going to do about finances' and 'what are we going to do about splitting the holidays with our families' a lot more comfortable and actually fun and funny! The first year of marriage is the hardest year, that's true, but with this book, you'll be giving engaged couples and newlyweds a lot of great insights on how to face each challenge...and also great, romantic and creative ideas on celebrating all of those fun firsts like watching your wedding video, having friends over, and more! This book also suggests ideas for the POSITIVE things in the first year of marriage, which a lot of articles and other books skip over because they want to make newlyweds nervous about what's ahead. Sharon Naylor's positive personality shines through in these sections, and her advice on handling even the toughest things in the first year of marriage [like a death in the family, money problems, confict with the in-laws, health problems and more] is done with great sensitivity and reassurance. This is a great book, a MUST for those planning to start a life together or even a few months into that newlywed life!
