Before you say “I do,” there’s a whole world of need-to-know truths that often go unspoken in the glitter of wedding planning. And I’m not just talking about centerpieces and cake flavors. I’m talking about the real stuff — the emotional prep, the logistical realities, and the behind-the-scenes truths that shape how your wedding (and your marriage) actually unfold.
That’s why I put together this guide: Things YOU Need to Know BEFORE Getting Married. It’s the conversation I’ve had with countless couples over the last 20 years — the one that brings clarity, calm, and a little tough love before you dive headfirst into planning. From timelines and expectations to money, mindset, and family dynamics, this resource is designed to help you avoid common pitfalls and feel truly ready.
Whether you're newly engaged or knee-deep in spreadsheets, these insights will give you a head start on planning a wedding that’s not just beautiful, but also deeply aligned with the life you want to build together.
