Marriage is such a big step in life and it should be taken that way, in steps. First comes the dating, then comes the courtship, then the engagement then the wedding. When thinking of dating you should be dating around, dipping your toe in the water. When you find someone with someone who you could see marrying then you take it to the courtship. In a courtship though, it should be for marriage, that is President Hinkley told us. The engagement is a very important step to come next. You are taking that step saying, "I want to commit to you" which is huge. Try to make the engagement a good one though, it will give you something to look back on when times are hard. During this don't just plan for the wedding day but plan for marriage. You are combined two lives together and that will bring changes you might of never thought of, so prepare for those. Then the wedding, what a happy day. But struggles will be all around and in order to keep the marriage alive you have to work on it. When your marriage is having troubles, work on it, don't let divorce be an choice, unless very needed. This is a sacred blessing and needs to be cared with more respect.
