Plan to remarry. This new man or woman in life makes you feel complete and you want to assure that the marriage works. Neither of you have children. Have a simple marriage that you both feel comfortable with. If this is the first marriage for one of the parties than a formal church wedding may be in store. However if this is a second marriage for both of you then a simplified marriage would be more to your liking, hop a plane and go to Vegas, get married and have your honeymoon all in one plane flight.

Decide where you are going to live. If you both have households from previous marriages, you have accumulated a bunch of stuff, two sofas, two bedroom sets, two dogs, two cats whatever there is just a lot of stuff between the two of you. Compromise, not all his stuff goes neither does all your stuff, each of you has to be willing to give up something to set up a working household. Not all couples need two coffee pots.

Compromise on a blended family. You have children from a previous marriage. He has children from a previous marriage. You both have houses that are not big enough to keep everyone in one house. Put both houses up for sale and buy a bigger one, assure that the bedrooms in the house are close to the same size so that the kids will not say he treats his kids better than he treats ours.

Do a prenuptial agreement if you have a lot of assets and the other one doesn’t. If you have biological children that you wish to leave a portion of your assets to from a previous marriage, set it down on paper and have a legal document accomplished before you say “I do.”

Tips & Warnings
Remember what made your previous marriage fail. Try to avoid those same circumstances from occurring a second time around. Love one another and learn to make that person your friend, your confidant and your partner for life. He or she has faults, you have faults, but each of you has redeeming qualities that shine out to the whole world to see that you are in love. Ride that love for the rest of your life.
Do not expect everything to be a bed of roses. With a new marriage comes a different aspect on life. You may have a blended family now. New in-laws, new step children and perhaps a new child of your own. These are all blessings that make us better people.
