If you could go back in time, on the wedding day and warn yourself about certain things in marriage what would you say to yourself?

I would have this big oval mirror in front of me and God would be right there, and he would take me over to the mirror and he would say, "take a good look in the mirror, and see your future", and then he would say "it is not like how you thought it would be when you were a little girl dreaming of the perfect man, the perfect white dress, the perfect home, the perfect life, the fluffy white cake, etc.." Now is it??
I would say "no", and then he would say "now all these things you see, are you ready to committ, and is your love for him greater than all of these things you will encounter, after you marry him"?
I would say yes, and then get married, and walk arm in arm with my new husband ready for the future.
Did that fifteen years ago, and we will be celebrating our 16 years of marriage this February!

I would say that a marriage is waaayyyy sooooo much more than planning that perfect wedding. As a little girl, i always dreamed a a fancy wedding. all dressed in white, with flowers. everyone saying how beautiful and perfect everything is. I was in no way ready for marriage. its hard work. WORK. I probably should have just been a wedding planner! And you know what? THere really was that little voice in my head saying, "are you really sure about this? I'm not so sure......" I wish i would have listened. I married to have a wedding, not a marriage. Embarassing

This would apply only to my first marriage...
"Don't worry and feel pressured because you're pushing 30 and all your friends are married and have started families. Someone better will come along eventually."
However, I don't regret at all the fact that I have wonderful kids from my marriage.

Cherish every moment! there is nothing worth losing the love you have! if it isn't worth losing him, it isn't worth fighting over! Say I love everytime you walk out the door and every night before you go to sleep! Never ever discuss anything negative in the bedroom, its a sacred place!

if i knew now what i did not know than i would have avoided marriage to him. but there are some relationships i would have stayed in. i would have stopped myself.

It would be before the wedding, "Wait until you are fianncially secure before getting married."
