You are about to enter into a time of your life that you have dreamt of for so long. Most imagine this to be a time for romance, candles, flowers, and finding that Cinderella wedding dress.  To top it off, you have the perfect Prince, the man of your dreams. You are  "Princess for the day" and deservedly so. A bride gleams with joy as she looks forward to what is to be the happiest day of her life.

Your wedding is only a symbol. It is a celebration, a party, a public recognition of what already exists in the silent places of your hearts. It is your marriage, yours to define, yours to make real and yours to live.

The romance, unfortunately, must be offset against a lot of planning, arguments and finances. The mission of this site, therefore, is to provide engaged couples, and other interested parties, with: information; comments; and links that will help save, not only your love and your finances, but your sanity as well.

On the following pages I will attempt to introduce to you what every couple should know about getting married. I will be providing information on the requirements of Marriage according to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts but the advice is applicable to anyone. I have also included some articles I have written that may help you save your sanity at the same time.

The intent of this site is to help couples get through a wedding without killing each other, your families or your friends. Your comments are always welcome as either a personal e-mail, phone call, or in my Guest Book. I am always ready to learn something new, so feel free to suggest new and interesting things, I am the person that will say "YES" to your suggestions
