I Emceed the Wedding Showcase this weekend at Weaver Ridge Country Club in Peoria, Illinois and talked to the brides about marriage. It was a nice event with a good showing.
Marc Lester from Marc Lester Photography took the pictures that are on this blog post. He was nice enough to send them to me free of charge.

First off, marry your best friend. Why marry someone you don't want to hang out with? Second, compromise. It isn't just about you anymore. Third, set your "rules" the first year. YOU (as in you and your spouse) decide what family functions you want to go to. You decide how you want to spend Thanksgiving and Christmas. If your parents live 3 hours apart, do you want to spend Thanksgiving and Christmas in the car so you can see both sets of parents on that day? The point, DO NOT let your family decide how you will spend the day. Four, have fun. You don't get married to be miserable.
