What do you love about your spouse?
Create love notes together or alone, as reminders & keepsakes of what has made you fall in love with the man you chose to be your husband.
Store these love notes in your treasure chest: notes compiled in a book, photo/note album, wooden box, a spot on the table each morning to show your husband your love for him each day or on special occasions, or simply inside your heart. Your treasure chest, whether tangible or intangible, is your heart’s realizations, unlocked.
These heartfelt quotes can be apart of your love note collection if you choose:
“Whatever souls are made of, his and mine are the same.” – Emily Bronte
“There are three things that last: faith, hope and love, and the greatest of these is love” – I Corinthians 13:13
“Two human loves make one divine.”
– ***Elizabeth Barrett Browning
“I have spread my dreams beneath your feet;
Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.”
– ***W.B. Yeats
“He is blessed in love alone,
Who loves for years and loves but one.”
– Sir A. Hunt

You made many commitments so far, now what about one towards the ambitions, hopes & dreams of your future? Do you and your husband want the same things? How much do you know about your partner’s vision of the future? Are you able to chat openly about where you see yourselves in five years, ten years time? You should be able to talk openly and freely about this with him. Issues should not be overlooked as couples embark on their new life together. Talk about what matters to you both!
Below are some starting points, whether you know the answers to them right now or not, it’s ok…what matters is your honesty.
Children: Many people assume that getting married means having children sometime in the future, while others see having a family as only a possible consequence. If having a child is a given for you make sure that your partner is aware of how much this matters to you. Research shows it is really important for couples to share views on having children. What are your memories of childhood? Thoughts around having one child or a big family? If either of you have children from previous relationships what issues does this raise for both of you?
Extended family:How involved would you want them to be? Things you would like to replicate from your own upbringing and things you would want to avoid?
A Home : What did home mean to you growing up? How important is it to be near family and friends? Do you see yourself settling in one area or moving around? How important is a nice home to you? Where do you want to live?
Career: ? Your job and home coincide, and the location of one will absolutely influence the other! What work do you do and why? Self-employed? Employed? Balancing work with home life? Ideal job and why? Which matters most – pay or doing a job you love? How ambitious are you? What motivates you?
Life together and apart: The importance of your social life; how much time will you spend together as a couple, how much time apart? Quality of time spent together? Shared activities and separate hobbies? What certain interests and hobbies signify for you? Travel plans and dreams?
Write down and share with your partner or save for a later time some practical goals as well as your big dreams and fantasies…these show you your passions. Your dreams are real…and your hopes are just your heart speaking its’ honesty. . .

Personality: You are independence personified, Aqua girl. Unconventional, unique, and willing to stick to your guns – especially in the face of adversity; these traits make you a great debater and a clear thinker, and therefore a valuable friend. You lean toward the eclectic and are possibly even cluttered, in home and hearth, but everything you own is beautiful and high quality. Aquarius is the sign of friendship and humanity. You’re the girl next door, everyone’s best friend who loves animals, hates cruelty and always defends the underdog. Although you can be popular and blend into the crowd, you are by no means traditional. You’re the zodiac’s most futuristic and forward-thinking sign, have a bit of a rebellious nature, and whose weird ways and silly, quirky personality have your loved ones always coming back for more.
Style: Bohemian BFF…Unruly Rebel. You are indie-artsy, but are careful not to follow the major trends unless you really love the look. You lean toward clean lines and eye-catching pieces in silver, turquoise, and rich blues. Often, it’s the outfits you throw on in a rush that end up receiving the most compliments; not paying attention to detail works for you. You loveflower power looks from the 1960’s, but can also rock ultra-modern styles and the latest trends. You’re not afraid to shock people with a blast of color, an out-there trend or a controversial T-shirt. Quirky pieces with a futuristic bent express your individuality and keep you from blending into the crowd.
Your eccentric side comes out through your style and you can simply make a statement with your hairstyle.
Your Dream Dress/ Wedding Dress Horoscope: Unconventional and fun, Aquarian brides favor geometrical and asymmetrical cuts and have a distinctly modern taste that runs from delicate to bold. As an air sign, you like to turn heads and make a statement. As an independent thinker, Aquarian brides may mix and match different styles. An Aquarius is known to reject the idea of a traditional gown and go with a trendy style. From a wispy off-the-shoulder sheath to a sleek A-line with a halter neck, you want a dress that is sophisticated, yet bold and whimsical. Your wedding gown will be elegant yet unique, classic yet intriguing. A gown with geometric shape and unusual but amazingly beautiful back detail is a dress that has got Aquarius style covered. Your family and friends will love the front of your dress made of tiny ruffles or layers of feathers, and a bodice that fits like a glove. But once they turn around, and see a surprise twist of detailing on opposite side, they will marvel at the back. Get creative with your accessories: a striking stone necklace or a pill box hat with bird-cage veil will upgrade your look to sensational.

Personality: Hello, Ms. Independent! Capricorns are always steadfast and surefooted and prefer to “go it alone” because they rarely trust others to finish the project. You really don’t wait around for anyone else to get the job done. Capricorns live a driven and structured life, taking all responsibilities seriously. Your sign rules the 10th house of authority and leadership, making you the zodiac’s very own first lady. Everybody knows they can count on a Capricorn, as you earthy beings are great friends and business partners.
Style: Timeless Classic…Blazing Business Woman. As corporate climbers, Capricorns have some serious style. You’re drawn to gray and blacks, blazers and button downs. A Capricorn talent is mixing business attire with unexpected items – plaid scarves, interesting necklaces, even a fedora, because you have the skill to turn the most basic staple (White House/Black Market/ J. Crew) into an American classic. You stun in quality pieces that stand the test of time, so it’s better for you to avoid the latest fads. Your only style alert? With your workaholic nature, it’s easy to label fashion as a luxury or indulgence. Well, Ms. Ambitious, statistics show that it takes only three seconds for people to form a first impression of you. Make your mark in stylish, simple clothes that can outlast a long workday but still take you behind the velvet ropes at a glamorous VIP event.
Your Dream Dress/ Wedding Dress Horoscope: Capricorns are typical Earth brides who are grounded in their roots. They are perfectionists, who strive for a dignified, classic gown. A structured bodice gown and perfectly cut silhouette will appeal to your elegant tastes and practical sensibilities. A gown with three-fourth lace sleeves, a deep V-neck and full bottom are just a few of the aspects that make up the precious gown you aspire for. Any additional pieces should be carefully considered. Earth brides are very particular about what accents they choose to wear. Pair your gown with a simple elbow or fingertip-length veil, a single strand of pearls, and some beautiful sling back shoes. Or simply highlight your decolletage with an heirloom pendant and you’re ready to wed. All Earth brides like a face that’s natural with a tiny touch of drama. Splurge on a makeup artist and hair stylist to work your wishes for an authentic appeal that especially shows off your sound beauty of bone structure, skin, and teeth.
