On your wedding day, you’ll be told many things by married couples who claim to know it all. Most of the time, they do know it all! But there are two very specific things you’ll hear over, and over, and over again. The first one being, “Don’t go to bed angry!” Well, we all hope to not do that, but we get it. Secondly, “Don’t forget to date.” This is one that’ll be shoved down your throat, but maybe in a good way. In order to keep your marriage lively and interesting, date nights are essential to “check-in” with your spouse and continue to grow in your marriage.
