I Do: The key to a great love story and a great marriage.

Marriage is not just an agreement between two lovers, but it is a never-ending cycle of compromise, sacrifice, and committed love that two individuals must attain for the rest of their lives. Love is the most important quality that two people share in a marriage, no matter what the circumstances bring for them. To love someone full-heartedly, unconditionally, and completely is the greatest gift anyone could ever receive from someone. When deciding whether or not marriage is the right choice for you and your significant other, you have to put aside your own wants and needs and look at the bigger picture: could you spend the rest of your life with this person?

Loving someone is not completely science. Yes, the chemistry you both share with one another is important, but there is so much more to that. Love is something that is so powerful and yet so complicated, and many people fall out of love every single day. Some people do not take the time to value their partner's dreams, wants, and needs and they would rather focus on themselves a little more than necessary. While it is important to still stay true to yourself and value what you need, you have to be there for your partner just as much and a little more than you would for yourself. If you can give that much love and attention to your partner, then he or she will return the same love in favor of you.

You will have your issues, but you will overcome those issues eventually. You will argue, you will fight, and you may be angry at times. The key to a successful relationship is to never give up, even despite the worst of circumstances. The love you both share with one another is something that can never be taken away by anyone, and only you two understand that.

The best love of all is shared together by two individuals with a strong foundation. When you know you love someone, you can truly feel it. Every inch of your soul feels a sense of warmth whenever you see them, and you begin to value every little detail. To love someone is one of the most magnificent offerings you could ever have. Everything about them feels like home, and you truly feel safe with them.

To love someone is one of the most influential actions you will ever possibly do, and there is no true definition to it. So just remember that when all seems lost, dark, or confusing, the person you love will always be there during those times. They will take your best interest to heart, and you will never feel alone.

The Harsh Reality of Planning Your Wedding Without Your Mom

When the countdown nears 0 days, the butterflies begin to dance around your stomach, your cheeks become sore from smiling so much, and there's a sense of peace that drops over you because you're finally marrying the love of your life.  This is the best time of your life, and you could not be more overjoyed.  Suddenly, sadness starts to hit you like a tidal wave that came without warning. The tears start flowing and cannot stop. You can't breathe, and everything else starts to feel heavy. There's an empty void that cannot be filled, and your chest begins to break in two.  This was the best time of your life, but now it's all starting to hit you in a million pieces.  The one person who should be here- your rock, your stability in an uneasy balance, the glue that has held you together- is not here. Your mom.  ... It's no secret that I have been through more obstacles than I'd like to admit. Several of these obstacles occurred when I least expected them, like a ...

The Life of a Showgirl: When Taylor Swift Lets the Spotlight Dim

While it’s no surprise that we’re big Taylor Swift fans in this household, something about this newest album release felt different. On the eve of the drop, anticipation ran high. Some of us drifted off to sleep with visions of glitter, feathers, and showgirls twirling in our minds. Others fueled up on caffeine, determined to stay awake until the clock struck twelve. And when it did—on October 3—we were ready for it. But this time, I chose sleep. The next morning, headphones in hand, I pressed play as soon as I woke up—and almost immediately, I felt something shift. Taylor’s music has always been deeply relatable—that’s never been in question. The Life of a Showgirl follows the forever-endearing The Tortured Poets Department, an album I adored with every ounce of my being. That record proved what so many of us already knew: Taylor is a poet at large. Naturally, expectations for this new album were sky-high. The Life of a Showgirl promised to peel back the curtain—to reveal life beyond ...

Bride Survival Guide: The Truth About Being a Bride

Congratulations! You're engaged!  Now is supposed to be the happiest time of your life. You get to marry the man or woman you love, plan a giant party (or a small one, if you prefer) with all your close friends and family, and wear the most beautiful gown. If any of these things make you anxious, you are not alone. Many brides feel overwhelmed during their "Engaged Era," and many don't get the support they need when feeling this way.  While this is an exhilarating time, your nerves and anxieties are valid. The second you get that ring on your finger, your personal life and boundaries go right out the door, and everyone wants to know every detail, even some that you haven't even planned out or thought about yet! When is the date? Where did you get your dress? What does it look like? But here's the thing: no one asks how you are doing.  Here is my hot take: society has made weddings so impractical and unreasonable that any bride-to-be feels overwhelmed. Everythi...
