There's nothing like the journey from dating - to love - to a marriage proposal - but there's a lot of stuff to handle before and after that pivotal "yes". 

To sort out this very real struggle, Gaby Alessi, who is newly engaged to her fiance Christian, and her sister-in-law Richelle Alessi sit down for a candid conversation that every soon-to-be-married couple (and those who love them) needs to hear.

Drawing from real-life stories and proven lessons from their own experiences in dating and preparing for marriage, you'll get answers to questions many young couples have but few are willing to ask, like:

• How do you balance the excitement of engagement with the reality of what comes next?  
• What expectations might be lurking under the surface—and how can you talk about them before they turn into big bumps down the road?  
• What practical steps can set you up during your dating season for a marriage that’s not just surviving, but thriving?

Whether you’re looking forward to your own wedding day, treasure strong relationship advice, or want to support an engaged couple, Gaby and Richelle offer laughter, honesty, and wisdom you can use right now. 

If you’ve ever wondered how to move from "will you marry me" to "I do", this episode is your must-listen guide.
