101 quizzes for couples--natasha burton

Hey everyone! I’m excited to share the news that my next book, 101 Quizzes for Couples is now available — yes, just in time for engagement season!

Of course, I’m a bit biased, but I think this book should be required reading for all soon-to-be-wed couples. (I’m about to be a bride myself, so I wrote this book in a pre-marriage mindset!)

As the title implies, this is a book of 101 quizzes for couples (at any stage of their relationship!) to take. Whether you’ve been together three years or three decades, this Q&A book will spark lively debate and fuel provocative conversation, arousing curiosity and long- forgotten memories — plus, it will have you answering questions you never thought to ask. (And, it makes a perfect gift for the holidays —hello, stocking stuffer!)

Just for Fully Engaged readers, here’s an exclusive quiz from the book that will be especially helpful for couples who are recently engaged (or about to be engaged!) to help you get the wedding planning conversation started. Sometimes, hammering out some of the most basic details can be the most time-consuming part of the process, so use this quiz to see if you and your partner are on the same page.

You can either both answer the questions in front of each other, or go over them separately and compare answers — whatever works best for you. (Then, be sure check out how to win your own copy of 101 Quizzes for Couples below the quiz!)

QUIZ: What’s Your Ideal Wedding?

Elope or have a traditional celebration?
Have a wedding close to home or a destination wedding?
Large wedding or small wedding?
Indoor or outdoor?
Band or DJ?
Daytime or nighttime?
Bridal party or no attendants?
Religious ceremony or nondenominational?
Sit-down meal or buffet?
Huge cake or dessert bar?
Rowdy bachelor/bachelorette parties or low-key guys/girls weekends?
Heartfelt or funny/embarrassing speeches?
Traditional or writing your own vows?

To enter to win a copy of 101 Quizzes for Couples, comment on this post by December 20 with your answer to the question below. We’ll select a random winner.

TELL US IN THE COMMENTS: In your opinion, what’s the number one question you should ask your partner BEFORE you get engaged?

Ask your partner–and yourself!!–whether or not you love each other for who you are now, and not for who you imagine you will one day be.

I know this sounds cheesy and not at all concrete, also kinda like something a person would lie about, but it’s sooooooo important! I suggest asking the question and then waiting a few months to let it percolate. That way you both have an opportunity to think about it and be certain.

I’ve been happily married for almost fourteen years to a man who is drastically different from me, but we have always loved each other for what we brought to the table in the beginning and so–though we have had to work at finding our footing sometimes– we’ve never wondered if it was a mistake. Well…. I know I’ve never wondered, and I choose to believe him when he claims he hasn’t either!!!

Do you want kids. That is a huge incompatability potential and source of resentment.

What do see your life looking like 5 and 10 years from now? Couples should know where the other stands on subjects of career, travels, CHILDREN, and other things that could be deal breakers for one of them.
