Preparing for marriage, not a wedding

When your son or daughter finally meets Mr. or Ms. Right, if they move too quickly, they'll be preparing for a wedding, not a marriage. I can't give you an ironclad timeline, but I would suggest that they be together for at least a year and a half before they marry. The last six months will be pretty focused on the wedding, so that gives them a year to really know each other and discover core beliefs. Encourage your kids not to rush to tie the knot, or they may inadvertently create a noose.
