Congratulations on your
engagement! By now you have probably found out how much goes into
preparing for the wedding of your dreams. You will find the same is
true if you want to achieve the marriage of your dreams. Neither one
just happens on their own. They both take time and effort, but a
wonderful wedding and a happy marriage are worth working for.
We have pulled together a
list of self-help resources to help you achieve your dream wedding and
more importantly your dream marriage.
Researchers have found if
you gain some basic relationship skills and knowledge before you get
married those skills can significantly help you achieve your dream of a
happy, healthy lifelong marriage. So if you want to make your marriage
dream become a reality we suggest a proactive marriage preparation
program to help you gain these basic relationship skills and knowledge.
Don't forget to
continually gain additional relationship skills and knowledge after you
get married. What would have happened to Tiger Woods if after a few
basic lessons from his dad he decided he didn't need to learn anything
else? Nurturing the marriage of your dreams is a lot like your golf
game. If you ever stop improving and fine tuning your marriage, then it
will become less and less satisfying over time.
We strongly
encourage every married couple to participate in some sort of
structured "Marriage
Enrichment" program every year of
their marriage. By doing so you greatly increase the likelihood that
you will achieve your dream of a happy, healthy lifelong marriage. We
have a section on this web site of special local programs for Newly Married Couples; check it
out either now, or soon after you
are married.
We highly
recommend you become an informed consumer before you purchase or use
one of these self-help programs. Possible questions you might ask
include:
1. What is
your experience and training that you used to develop this program?
2. Is this
program based on research and can you supply me with the references for
the research articles it is based on?
3. What is
the total cost for using your program?
4. What are
the specific relationship skills and knowledge taught in this program?
If you have a self-help
program for engaged couples and would like it to be added to this list
please send us an email.
The table below lists
some of the self-help programs available to help Engaged Couples gain
basic relationship skills and knowledge that can help them form and
sustain a healthy marriage.
