ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
My major credit goes to my darling husband, Dr Chibuike Eze Nwafor who has always been my pillar of support and strength and to my precious seeds, Chidindu, Chimdinma, and Paul who are my source of inspiration. Finally, to God Almighty, who taught me the way to prepare for my wedding day even when there's no sight of the intending husband, the one who taught me to be prudent with money and to act in faith while I waited for the special day. May His name alone be glorified. Amen.

Will There Be Marriage in Heaven?Weddings are more than just a celebration; they are a sacred union blessed by God. In the midst of the festivities, it is important to remember the divine presence in our lives. The flowers, the cake, and the decorations are all beautiful, but they should not overshadow the significance of God's role in our earthly affairs.
God's wisdom, timeless and unchanging, guides us through the whirlwind of wedding preparations. It reminds us of our responsibilities and the need for stewardship in handling the blessings, both financial and otherwise, that He has bestowed upon us. We are not to squander these blessings in pursuit of fleeting earthly glory but to manage them wisely, with a humble awareness of the One who gave them to us.
As you embark on the journey towards your wedding day, remember that it is not just a celebration of your love for each other but
