Traditionally we all associate saying ‘yes’ with happiness, joy, and the illusion of  a stress free lead up to the wedding of our dreams. What nobody seems to speak about are the doubts and the fears that we all feel. Do these sound familiar?

‘Am I doing the right thing?’

‘Wish I could close my eyes and have it all over and done with.’

‘Is he /she the right one?’

‘Will everything change?’

‘I am so scared.’

Well we are human after all and endowed with a brain that is able to think and explore the possibilities. This is not meant to be a negative blog, rather one of support and encouragement. One which asks you to explore your feelings and share them, not bottle them up and feel guilty about them. Working through issues, discussing and reflecting will strengthen the relationship and the bond you have together.  This is your big day but it is also your next step towards a life which is shared.  No one has a crystal ball which can foresee the future. On the other hand building a strong relationship based on respect and trust as well as shared goals and interests will help you WANT  to grow older with each other.
