Judith Sherven and Jim Sniechowski
(Interview
featured on A Man's World, January
10,
2006)
A
wedding brings together two people who pledge their lives to
one another. The
important number here is "two." But
far too often, that number ends up being however many relatives
and friends feel it is their right to interfere in the planning.
Each year, millions of couples wed, and millions of relationships
— involving brides, grooms, families and friends — are undermined
by power
struggles, flights and stress before the big event arrives.
Listeners will be treated to hearing Judith and Jim discuss things
such as:
- The
importance of making informed decisions and choices together
as a couple
- How
to avoid being overrun by the demands of others
- Avoiding
a financial hangover and sticking to a balanced budget
- Why
men really do want to be involved with planning the wedding
They will also discuss the "10 Biggest Wedding Mistakes to
Avoid", which include:
- Surrendering
the wedding plans to the bride's mother
- Allowing
parents to pay for everything
- Going
into debt
- Not
talking about finances, children and goals, long before the
wedding
- Inviting
people they don't want
