Marriage itself is no walk in the park and the path to
marriage can be strenuous as well. There are things for
the man to consider such as the proposal, gaining
permission to have her hand in marriage, etc and the
woman is getting the perfect tailor, finding out who is
available for your train, etc.

There are even more that the couple as a whole will
have to decide and consider before the big day. Some
details are more important than others and NAIJ.com
has complied the four typical things every couple should be aware of.

See list below:

1. Men, you must propose with a ring

Unless your bride deeply expressed her hatred for
wedding rings and specified she’d prefer if you
proposed with just your words and no physical gift to
symbolize your intention to marry, then please get her a
ring. If you propose with an empty ring box or without a
ring of any sort, you might just receive the harshest no
of your life or the strongest slap to your face. If you
cannot afford an expensive ring, get a cheap one and be
saving up for the expensive one. This is better than
nothing.

2. You can be engaged for as long/as short as you want

Every couple is different and will have a preference.
An outsider may feel the limit on an engagement is 10
months and another might feel it is 2 months but it all
depends on the two of you, your budget and where you
are in life. Taking your time doesn’t mean you guys are
not serious and rushing to marry doesn’t make you both
more in love than others. A long engagement can give
you time to reflect and decide if your partner is the one,
plus, if things go sour, it’s easier to break an
engagement than a marriage. So, whatever works for
the two of you is fine so long as both of you are working
on the relationship and being faithful.

3. Your bachelor/bachelorette party timing matters

If you plan on having the greatest night of your legally
single life, then your bachelor/bachelorette party should
be far, far away from your wedding day. Else you will
wake up with a hangover, tired feet and bags under your
eyes. The days before your wedding should be calm and
relaxed days because the wedding itself will stress you
out. However, if all you are planning for your party is a
sit out with your friends, then you can have it the day
before so long as you finish early. Sleep is your friend.

4. Both of you should plan the wedding

It is the woman’s big day as much as it is the man’s.
The man should be allowed to at least comment on the
wedding designs, the invitations and all that because he
will also be stuck looking at the pictures for the rest of
his life. And if he is not interested, at least keep him
updated on what’s happening and remember he is
allowed to invite as many people as you; no one’s
family or friends are more important. All in all, it is a
give and take so discuss it with him/her and be willing to compromise.
