A must-have book and fun to read, too, 25 May 2006
By sheila - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: 1001 Questions to Ask Before You Get Married (Paperback)
Hmmm... A person who has been successfully married for a long time and has known her husband for 10 years before tying the knot, supposedly picks up this book, realizes it doesn't offer her anything, and then gives it a negative review? Hello. Talk about a complete disconnect, and a wholly unfair review.
This is a book for people who really need to think about what kind of changes married life will bring -- it's not for people who have known each other since childhood and grew up together (see below), but as grown-ups who come with perhaps unknown sets of values, goals, expectations, families, in-laws, problems, and vision.
For people who take the institution of marriage seriously and need to want to look past the butterflies and flowers of love and engagement to what it means to be really married, warts, mothers-in-law, unemployment, child-rearing exhaustion, nursing homes, affairs, as well as the good times (LOL). The author has really thought through life's possibilities exhaustively..I'd give this to anyone who is marriage-minded. Even if you've met "the one," sometimes it's better to know up front what you're dealing with and face it head on than find out later.
Recommended.

Why do I carry this book in my bridal salon?, 1 Aug 2004
By Eugenia - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: 1001 Questions to Ask Before You Get Married (Paperback)
This is the only marriage preparation book I carry in my bridal boutique because of its common sense, secular and all-inclusive content. The book's questions, tips and advice can benefit any type of relationship-professional, personal as well as matrimonial. I have gotten good feedback from my customers. Many brides have told me that the questions in the book can be turned into a fun wedding shower game.
I was impressed by the book's non-threatening and non-preachy tone. It makes me feel good to know I'm offering brides something more than a beautiful wedding gown and accessories.

Parents should give this book to their kids., 1 Aug 2004
By R. Smith - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: 1001 Questions to Ask Before You Get Married (Paperback)
Gave this to my daughter and her fiancee to prepare them for the most important decision they'll ever make. They laughed at first, but can't stop talking about how much fun it is to ask all the questions. The sections about finances and in-laws are particularly good. I am recommending this book to all my friends who have kids of marrying age.
