We started our wedding seating chart with a simple diagram.

It quickly evolved into a complex flowchart, complete with 'demilitarized zones' and 'mandatory buffer tables'.

We thought we were being frugal by having the wedding at home

Until we had to take out a second mortgage to accommodate the guest list and the therapist for my mother-in-law

I've learned that marriage is all about finding creative ways to ask for permission

like, 'Honey, can I turn the thermostat down?' is actually just code for 'Can I still be in charge of something?'

Marriage is like a game of Jenga

you start with a solid foundation, and then you take turns removing pieces until it all comes crashing down, but somehow you're still stuck with each other
