Women dream of being brides ever since they are little girls and that has helped fuel the kind of wedding obsession that shows up in movies like 27 Dresses.
Helga Hayse says women spend far too much time focusing on their weddings, which now cost an average of $27,000, and not enough time on what it means to actually be a wife. She says this is a major reason why the divorce rate is so high.

Helga says it’s time to grow up and learn:

• Why being a bride is easy compared to being a wife.

• What brides need to know financially before they marry.

• Which type of pre-marital counseling brides should seek out but rarely do.

• Why romance is the opposite of intimacy.
