I’m excited to be shooting a wedding at Marlsgate Plantation on September 20th! This is the couple from their engagement session at Marlsgate.
Friends and family viewing this post: Give your advice to the couple regarding two things.
1. What can they do to best prepare for the actual wedding day?
2. What’s the best marital advice you’ve been given?
Horaayy..there are 7 comment(s) for me so far ;)
Stay cool, Mammaw
Marriage is not 50/50 it is 75/75.
Accept each other as you are and don’t try to change your spouse. It has worked for us for 62 years.

Have plenty of rest ahead of time. Do not overdo activities and be stressed.
Do not make mountains out of mole hills. If it will not matter 5 years from now IT IS NOT WORTH ARGUING/STRESSING ABOUT NOW. Enjoy the LITTLE THINGS in life.
Don’t fret, it will all work out.
The world says walk away from problems. The answer to a long marriage is to never walk away from problems. As I have always told you, “your mother and I have never had a disagreement – that we didn’t work out”.
When you get stressed, step back, take a deep breath and remember God is in control.
Don’t sweat the small stuff.
Enjoy every mintue!
Laughter is key and whenever you feel inspired to say “I LOVE YOU” say it, even if it’s 100 times a day!
The pictures look great!
Choose your battles, it will all work out in the end, the little arguments are really never that important.
P.S. I’m still not wearing the hat!!
Don’t expect everything to be perfect before, during or after the wedding. Laugh at the little stuff and work out the big stuff. Everything can be solved if you put your mind to it. Don’t forget to laugh at yourself, it relieves the stress.
Don’t ever go to bed mad at each other. Discuss the issue and work it out so it does not fester and seem bigger than it is. Pappaw said it right, marriage is 75-75. Remeber, you married each other for who you are now. Don’t try to change that.
Good luck, we love you!
