Together Forever?

Brides, Brides, Brides! I used to work at David’s Bridal in 2004 for about 8 months and was able to experience the mentality of many of our young women. Your special day is important and the event is something you want to create memories to look back in history to cherish and share with your children and grandchildren. However, when it becomes an event full of conflict and chaos; changes need to be made!

You pick out the colors, you decide where the event will be, you pick out the flowers, you decide who will be in the wedding, and you decide who will attend. ‘WAIT A MINUTE”. I thought you were getting married. Too many women focus on the event more than the marriage. The event last a day and the marriage should last a lifetime. The planning should be done together.

Now the groom, by tradition, is not supposed to see the dress until the day of the wedding. In my opinion, if the bride comes in more concerned about impressing others, by the elaborate event, than she does her future husband~ there is work to do!

I would like to briefly mention, a substantial number of brides came back a few months later begging for their money back on the dress, because the future husband abandoned her. I did show them compassion; however, all sales are final at David's Bridal! 

Without Christ the marriage will not last anyway; however, two totally opposite people are joined together for a reason. You have qualities he doesn’t have and he has qualities you don’t have. For example: He may cook better than you, and you enjoy cleaning more than him. Therefore, you shouldn’t make him feel less of a man because he likes to cook, and he shouldn’t make you feel less of a woman because you don’t.  Encourage and support one another! And by all means, COMMUNICATE, COMMUNICATE, COMMUNICATE ~ OFTEN!

He who finds a [true] wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord. Proverbs 18:21 AMP
