Do you want to get to know your partner better?
Do you want to peek into what your life will be like when you live together?

You're Getting Married Soon... Now What? is a recommended read for all couples planning to take their relationships to the next level. Many couples forget to talk about the situations they will most probably encounter, leaving them unprepared and unaware of how their partners would react. Many have unrealistic expectations not based on reality, which results to disappointments and frustrations. Feelings which lead to contempt, until one day you realize that the love you once felt... is gone.

This book will not give you answers. It will get you started on the questions, so you can get the answers yourself, and be better acquainted with the person you love. Who they are now... and what you can expect from them on certain situations in the future. Asking the right questions, will often get you the answers you need.

If you can talk about these things at this stage in your relationship, you can approach your future with more confidence. You'll know what to expect, and what's expected of you.

No wishful thinking. No baseless hopes and dreams. Just love... and the comfort of knowing who'll be walking life with you.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"This volume handily covers the most common events that can cause problems in a marriage if not navigated wisely: keeping the lines of communication open, bedroom matters (and things that happen in the bedroom do matter!), starting a family, and issues surrounding money. Ms Lancaster offers practical, down to earth advice based on her own marital life experience as if she were having a conversation with her reader rather than conducting a lecture. Her writing style makes the text engaging, and the illustrations, both playful and straightforward, also help to break up the text into manageable portions that hold the reader's interest.
I would recommend this book to anyone entering into marriage for the first time who is working to set themselves up for success." - Barbara Land, Author

From the Author

When we encounter a difficulty we ask ourselves, Now What? It's a time when we're looking for answers to get out of a quandary or when we're confused. That is the purpose of this series. I can name the elephants in the room and we can have a no-nonsense conversation about it. I love naming elephants... I don't know why people hate talking about them. Reality is reality and it's not going to change if we don't acknowledge them, don't you agree? So, might as well discuss it and find ways to deal with it.
You're Getting Married Soon... Now What? contains specific questions that needs to be asked by couples, whether they're about to be married, just married or even if they never plan to get married! It's the secret to making relationships work. I'm quite surprised to observe that most couples don't have this conversation. Before we enter into a commitment, we need to know who we're committing to, what is expected of us and what we should expect in the future. This will help couples avoid developing unrealistic expectations that often ruin marriages... and love. Faith in love is one thing... wishful thinking is another.
I'm a romantic, but not hopeless. I believe in having dreams and then doing what is needed to help the universe make those dreams come true.

5.0 out of 5 stars Useful Guide for Engaged and Married Couples
Reviewed in the United States on May 4, 2015
Verified Purchase
This book is a brief, useful catalog of concerns pertaining to married life. It is useful for wedded couples as well as those who are still engaged. So, the title is misleading. The author’s purpose is to encourage involved couples to communicate and plan for the lifestyle changes that living as a partnership will bring. She focuses attention on crucial, sometimes uncomfortable, topics. Ms. Lancaster terms these “the elephant in the room”. Subjects discussed include the following:

• Finances
• Living arrangements
• Having children
• Delegation of chores
• Taboo actions
• Annoyances
• Ambitions

This work is a general how-to guide, not an advice column for specific couples. Lifestyles vary. Some of the ideas and situations may not be pertinent to every reader’s relationship. Yet, there are numerous helpful suggestions for every marriage.

4.0 out of 5 stars A great tool in building a marvilous marriage
Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2015

This book is a great balance of sweet, friendly encouragement and no-nonsense, straightforward advice. The subjects suggested for in-depth conversation between future partners before they tie the knot are useful and common-sense. They are topics any couple needs to be on the same page about for any hope of a successful "happily ever after". Some may be difficult to discuss, but if you can't even find the courage to discuss a subject before marriage, I don't know that you're ready to LIVE it after the "I do's" are spoken. Deep, whole-hearted, absolute respect is (in my humble opinion) the cornerstone of a successful marriage. Such respect will make broaching these topics a breeze (and even fun in some cases!). I think couples will find this an illuminating, interesting exercise, and a great jumping off point into even more in-depth conversations of their own!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent guide to getting to know your partner
Reviewed in the United States on April 11, 2015

Anyone in a committed relationship, should read this book. Questions we should all be asking our partners, that give insight into who they are and who they will be in the relationship. A very valuable read, not just for engaged couples. I think an excellent group of topics to discuss with your partner. The goal: to avoid unnecessary conflict and bring you closer together. Yep, even after 15 years of marriage, it's a great reminder that I don't necessarily know everything about my partner. "Honey, can I ask you a few questions?" Enjoy.

Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2014

This would be a great book for couples to read who are about to get married. It's a quick read but there is a ton of good down to earth information in it. Many couples don't ask the hard questions and can't see around the romance to get to the foundation of what a long term relationship is all about. The Author helps identify the right questions to ask and more importantly what to do with the answers. I believe the Author is a romantic at heart and after the hard questions are asked she brings it back around to the fact that two people love each other and should really in the end focus on that. Highly recommended for young couple about to take the leap.

2.0 out of 5 stars One great idea
Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2015
Writing a book of advice is a brave thing. I think of travel books, for instance, and worry about the right level of detail, or of cook books and wonder if the recipes should be the focus or the techniques and principles.

There are literally thousands of books giving advice to those getting married. Some talk about being a "good" wife or husband, others concentrate on the sex or the money. Lancaster has some wise words on Communication. Couples must learn to talk to each other.

I think the author could have been less laid back, more assertive, and better organized. Also I was surprised that one specialized form of communication, the pre-nuptial agreement, was not even mentioned.

4.0 out of 5 stars Mostly for young couples
Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2019

My fiancee and I are sixty-three years old. No additional children are in our future, but we both have children from our prior marriages and those children are the primary source of many of our disagreements. This book addresses questions about if and how many kids a couple would like, but nothing about how we will treat the children that already exist.

A short read and quite worthwhile, but more so if you're younger.

Not being any kind of expert on marriage, it’s hard to say whether the topics addressed in this guide are comprehensive. They strike me as a package of important and useful things to know about your partner. Through open communication, you get to know each other better. I like the notion put forward here, that when you and your partner encounter one of the typical issues in marriage, you will be better equipped to address it if you have built a foundation by having previously discussed it. Sitting down together and opening up about a defined list of difficult and possibly embarrassing topics is obviously a useful exercise in itself – learning to communicate. This makes perfect sense. This book makes perfect sense.
