of Marriage Section
Â
 The wedding was just the beginning. Now comes the wonderful part—building a life together.
Your first year of marriage is filled with firsts: your first home together, new routines, new traditions, shared decisions, ordinary Tuesdays, and all the little discoveries that come with becoming husband and wife.
In this section, you’ll find practical, faith-centered advice for Latter-day Saint newlyweds as you begin building your life together. From family home evening for two and keeping romance alive to date nights, name changes, creating traditions, and strengthening an eternal marriage, these resources are here to help you navigate the everyday side of happily ever after.
Because eternal marriage isn’t built only in the big, sacred moments. It’s built day by day—in prayer, laughter, patience, friendship, faith, and choosing each other again and again.
