Lessons Learned from Newlyweds
Welcome to The First Years of Marriage Newsletter! We talk about the conversations, challenges, and changes that begin once the honeymoon ends. Advice from experts, mistakes from me (Jen Glantz), and things you’re going to want to know as you continue to ask yourself this question - “I’m married, so now what?”
NEW LESSONS FROM NEWLYWEDS
In 19 days, I’ll be celebrating the first anniversary of my marriage.
I can’t believe it’s been a year since we said I DO on a street corner as our parents and loved ones watched over Zoom (#covidweddingproblems).
But before that date swings around, I want to start brainstorming what the heck I learned so far in my own first year of marriage.
While I spend a few weeks doing that, here’s some insight from other couples on what the biggest lessons they learned during YEAR ONE of being married.

This Week’s Love List:
Gifts Under $50: Know someone who needs a gift? I like searching this website and looking at gifts to grab under $50.
Exploring this book: Cute little book of games to play with your partner.
Make Thank You Notes: One fun thing I’m doing with Adam is making customized thank you cards to use throughout the year. We made them after we got married and ran out! In 2022, it’s time for a new design.
The Newlywed Card Game: We have 1/3 of our supply left in stock. Want to play the game? Grab one before it sells out.
