The wedding day should be a wonderful start for a married couple. The emphasis is on the wedding but the question which comes up is: What will happen after the happy couple is married? This is not something that is mentioned by the "bridezillas." If you listen to brides talk, you may notice that they are not talking about their lives with their husbands after the wedding.

It's hard to believe the big issues that brides and grooms often forget to talk about before walking down that aisle. Some things must be clarified and gotten out into the open long before anyone says, "I do." Discussing these things in advance is the best means of avoiding serious battles later that may even cause you to have to choose from among .

If you haven't lived together before, there will be an adjustment period. Accept this. The most convincing case of true love will not completely override the annoyance of learning to live with somebody whose habits may be very different from yours. The best way to deal with this is to plan on allowing some time to work things out.

Dividing up the tasks is important to your domestic happiness. You will want to decide who will do such tasks as preparing meals and laundering clothes. If your husband has lived on his own previously and performed all the tasks himself competently, you may be shocked to discover that he now expects his new wife to take them all upon herself since they are a married couple. Such ideas are best discussed before you get married so neither party is shocked or dismayed after the vows are exchanged. Don't wait until you need to watch this .

Both men and women may have thought about having children in the future. But what is the future? Is it next year? Whenever you get that higher salary? It is advisable to make everything very clear on this point. Often, couples believe that they are on the same page without having ever discussed it explicitly. Irritation ensues when it turns out they weren't as in tune as they thought.

If you want many years of happy marriage in your future you should take at least as much care and time planning your marriage together as you do planning the wedding. After all, what is one day when compared to the rest of your life? The disappointment of a husband who never does a load of laundry, when you were sure he would, will ultimately affect your happiness much more than a memory of the perfect dress.
