June 15, 2007 Chose that because of logistic time reasons that it needed to be early in the summer, and we were thinking about having it June 24, or 16, but then the reception place we really liked wasn't available those days. So we chose Friday the 15th. And I'm thrilled.

My fiance has ADD. He just started medication for it. As for children, the likelihood that one of your children will have ADHD or ADD (whichever your husband has) is about 60%.

I'd say, ask her out for Valentine's Day, definitely. See how that goes, and then after that, have a "State of the Union" conversation (that's what I call it)... and just ask what she thinks about the relationship you have, and if she's comfortable giving it a label or furthering it.

I'm going to be buying my unmentionables sometime soon. I'll be buying a nice strapless bra and probably some Spanx. And when we get to the hotel, I'll get into something "more comfortable"... hah..

I started my premarital counseling 9 months before the wedding. But that was because my fiance and I are away from where our pastor lives (by about 1400 miles). Otherwise, we would have started about 6 months before. I personally wouldn't start it 6 weeks before the wedding because there's so...

I have done the "So You're Getting Married" premarital counseling by H. Norman Wright. It has a DVD, workbook, other materials also. During the whole thing, it emphasizes that the program isn't just for premarital people, but also for people who are already married. Some of the topics are...

I voted that we both live on our own. My fiance lives on his own and I live at school right now, but the month before our wedding we'll each be staying at our parent's houses because we live in Boston but our wedding is in Minnesota.

Hahaha.. thanks for that. Maybe schools should start using the "daily calendar" as a means of preventing teenage pregnancy. None of this "abstinance only" stuff. Scare them into not having kids too early.

Did you talk to him? How'd it go?

You need to talk about the kids thing. How many? When? Planned? How far apart? Who stays home with the kids? What happens when you're on maternity leave? How to afford them? How to raise them? Who disciplines? How much to spend on them? Who pays for college? Do they get to be given everything...

I'm studying secondary education, special education, and history. Thanks for all the responses so far!

Hey, This is my first post in Childfree Couples. I am getting married in June and my fiance and I are both young and finishing up school and graduate work. He and I don't want to have children for at *least* 5 years, maybe more like 6 or 7 years. I want to get into my occupation before I'm out...

1 year. Exactly. But we had been friends for about 5 years before dating that one year. So.. that helped.

Family - silent, therefore, negative. Church - somewhat silent (ie: negative), somewhat positive. I'm not married yet, but will be in June, and the silence that sex received bothers both my fiance and I. Because we both experienced negative "just don't do it" types of messages, we both wanted...

Here's mine!

Since she has a very small hand, I wouldn't worry too much about the size of the diamond(s)/stone(s). If you're thinking of doing a solitaire, you won't want to get something so large that it's overpowering or too high-sitting (it can scratch things very easily). If you're thinking of doing a...

If you know her mom and would be able to ask her for any suggestions on rings, that may be a good way to go the "traditional" route and surprise her while still having a good idea of what she may like in a ring. My fiance had a bit of trouble with this, but kind of in the end we both knew it...

We said "I thoroughly enjoy you", but that was kind of an inside joke. Also, we said "I really like you" or "I really enjoy being with you". Stuff like that.

Black and ivory. Simple elegance. Classy.

I just spent a good while reading all the episode summaries on the website. I'd really like to see it now!
