My faincee and I are Christians and we LOVED this DVD but i tell you truthfully this DVD is for anyone who wants some great advice on planning their wedding without going broke, but also there are great suggestions and helpful tips on how not to be physically intimate before your wedding night. People want to do that, but these couples tell you how they did do it (oh, yeah, but some of them sinned and repented!).

My fiancee and I are Christians and we bought this DVD because we wanted to abstain from premarital sex and honor God during our engagement and we found it very hard. It is a very big test for a Christian couple because you are engaged and you know you are going to be married and you are planning for the future and spending so much time together and you know God wants you to abstain. These couples were so honest, even about having failures and repenting and the strategies they used. What I did not expect was the good advice about planning our wedding too and how to save money on some different stuff. And about what to do first when you get engaged. And about the importance of traditions like asking for your bride's hand from her father. Like not having sex, this stuff gets you off on the right foot for your life together. I really thought it was great.

Sometimes people act like all Christians are cut from the same cloth and this DVD shows the diversity among Christians. Couples that met all different ways talking about finding each other, committing to spending their lives together and honoring God in their engagements and weddings and marriages. This DVD is a blessing!

Planning a wedding has left me very little time to do anything else, but I am thankful I took the time to watch this DVD that one of my bridesmaids gave me. It truly spoke to my fiance and me and made us feel that there are so many people who share our values and excitement for tradition and marriage. I highly recommend it for all couples - either planning a wedding or already married. I bought it for all my bridesmaids and they loved it!

This DVD was awesome. Great advice! Really funny stories but these couples are just a blessing. And they admit that they failed sometimes and repented and were forgiven. I loved how real they were. No acting all perfect. Great stories and just inspiring.
