Pay attention to your vows and your wife.
Wake up every morning and realize that you are a lucky man.
Tell her you love her every day.
Care.
Make an effort.
Be considerate.
Realize that there will be bad days, and accept them.
Be open and honest.
Really get to know your wife.
try to do the little easy things that mean so much, drawing a bath, buying her favorite treats, doing the dishes.
Be a partner, not a husband.
Be supportive.
encourage her.
cry every once in a while, when you are hurt or sad or upset.
Talk to her or with her, not at her.
Ask her what she wants, what she thinks.
Make sure she has gotten her cookies too.
Buy her favorite books, know her favorite authors.
Watch stupid chick flicks with her.
Turn off the game and pay attention to her (except the super bowl, she can give you that)
Tell her she is the most beautiful woman in the world, and mean it.
Find something new to fall in love with every day.
Be willing to lose from time to time.
Let her drive once in a while.
Learn to dance.
When it is a choice between a trip and a game, take her on the trip at least once.
Hold her and caress her like she is the most precious thing in the world.
Wrestle with her like she is one of the guys.
Make her breakfast in bed.
Buy her an ice cream on a summer walk.
Rub her feet.
Above all, remember that everything is your fault. Once you accept that, it goes much easier. If you ever realize that you were right and she was wrong, apologize immediately.
(there are just as many things for women to remember too!)

Ten Rules for a Happy Marriage
Dear Abby shared a list of Ten Rules for a Happy Marriage from a couple who reached their 50th anniversary and successfully made their marriage a promise for life.
1. Never both be angry at the same time.
2. Never yell at each other unless the house is on fire.
3. If one of you has to win an argument, let it be your mate.
4. If you must criticize, do it lovingly.
5. Never bring up mistakes of the past.
6. Neglect the whole world rather than each other.
7. Never go to sleep with an argument unsettled.
8. At least once every day say a kind or complimentary word to your life partner.
9. When you have done something wrong, admit it and ask for forgiveness.
10. Remember it takes two to make a quarrel.

Hey r u going to marry " Aunty " lol shez in ur contact list and just 2 days back she asked how cud she be a good wife both of u marrying next month :D lol......
Ummm respect ur wife first, then love, care for her and listen to her and look for her needs. Talk with ur wife openly and share things with her, make her ur good rather best friend and all will be wonderful. Give respect u get respect, give love u get more in double if the lady is real genuine and truly values love.
Any problems or difference of opinions please talk them thru with patience, rage and arguing will not solve matters but think logical and discuss it the matter will resolve in time.
No matter wat issues don't solve with a quick click of ur fingers. On some luxury well if u like to spoil ur wife go on do that and keep her happy also save for ur future i suppose discussing financial situations with ur wife will be a good idea so that she also knows how things r and how both of u can manage.
Go for good vacations, spend time with each other and most of all try to help ur wife in work so that she'd not feel like shez just supposed to cook, clean and keep quite. Share ur responsibilities and share ur work load. If ever if get angry count to 10 or 100 and even if that doesn't help then go down for a walk and chill. By the time u return home all will settle. Never get mad with ur wife else no bed for u lol now who wants that heheh specially when it rains man it's not a good thing to get wet that way :-p
Enjoy and Happy Married Life to u Both :)

She is right.
Learn to embrace this. When you wake up in the morning and look in the mirror repeat it to yourself 10 times before you do anything else during the day.
Um,
other than that
just be a good person and treat her right and things should be fine.
(And don't forget to thank her and compliment her frequently ...Also any changes in appearance need to be acknowledged immediately!)

Many arguments are based on money. It's one of the top reasons for divorce. Start working together on a planned budget for each month. Don't do the seperate account bit. You'll be together as one.

I think the others have given you pretty good advice, all I can say is that I hope you follow it and that you and your wife have a long and happy marriage. Congradulations!

be nice and calm. and be able to talk well with your wife, those things will get you far. i'd say, make sure you're also on equal footings or there will be conflicts later on. i'll send a smoothie maker for your gift. have a nice wedding.

Don't insist that everything has to be your way.
Marriage is give and take, communication and
respect for each other. Congratulations on your
upcoming wedding.

BE WILLING TO COMPROMISE AT TIMES AND WORK AS A TEAM, HAVING THE SENSE TO KNOW YOUR MANHOOD ISNT IN JEOPARDY IF SHE STANDS FIRM ABOUT SOMETHING OR SHE MAKES MORE.
