Congratulations! I'm sorry if I'm a bit late, but I've been out of the loop lately.
Some people say that it's 5% about you and 130% about her. I have to disagree. I've found that it's best to realize that women are a superior species. They are more highly evolved than men. They think better thoughts, they think quicker, they actually THINK where many men don't. The sooner you realize that , the happier your marriage will be. Men get bogged down in hormones (testosterone) and women are able to rise above hormones and actually advance the evolution and maturity of the human race. I don't care what people say about Eve being the problem and root of evils, women are superior to men in every way.
(I've also found that just saying that to a prospective date made it much easier to get that first date. Try it sometime! Of course, now that you are engaged, it won't matter. But it will settle an argument faster than anything else in the world. Take it from a married man.)
Tim

My father's standard advice to young men newly engaged is to NEVER underestimate the power of two simple words.
"Love ya???"
NO. "Yes Dear!"
Several years ago I was involved in a wedding as a non-official "wedding week right hand man" for two dear friends that had come back to our home town for their wedding. One of the supremely important tasks I was given was to help the bride's sister putting together little draw-string filled baggies of Hershey candies that had some cute message tied with a ribbon to the bag that read:
"Some hugs & kisses from the Mister & Missus!" (I will leave forum members to speculate about which half of the wedding couple thought that was clever...)
About half way through our task the bride's sister started to panic - we did not have enoug ribbon to tie the rest of the messages to the drawstring bags. I looked up and said "Had it occured to anyone that the messages can be affixed to the drawstring of the drawstring bag?"
The groom pipes up "It occured to me, but I kept my mouth shut"
I knew right then and there, they would have many happy years together.

Congratulations. Since everyone is offering advice, I'll join in  1. the 10% you/90% her *is* serious advice. I was told this while engaged by a widower at his wife's funeral (advice from the priest that married his grandparents). He'd been married 50 years or so. 2. Fancy devices. I bought my wife a fancy, expensive, front-loading washer, and I"m not allowed to touch it. I bought a fancy dishwasher, and I'm not allowed to touch it, either. Or her vacuum, forthat matter hawk
