Wedding Night Bliss

          Get excited, because I’m about to give you an inside look into my marriage. Yes, you’re privileged, because you’re about to hear one of our arguments. You’re welcome. J First, let me start off by bragging on my hub, so I don’t seem like some kind of bitter wife who doesn’t appreciate her hub. He’s really amazing.  He has a super odd work schedule, and still manages to work out 4 times a week. Most times, he goes to the gym early in the morning before work.  On those early mornings, he even takes out the dog. This is important, because if you have a sassy dog like mine, you know that they don’t like to be kept waiting. SO, if she doesn’t get taken out… well, let’s just say I’ll have some cleaning to do. (If you enjoy these personal stories about my life, sign up for my email list  here .)           Obviously, on his off days he likes to sleep in. I’m completely fine with that. He’s earned it. But sometimes he’ll still get up early to go to the gym, and take the dog out.

     February is the month of LOVE, and nothing screams LOVE more than a wedding! But before you have the big glamorous wedding that you've always dreamed of, you need to have the partner that you've always dreamed of. This is a very important part! If you skip this, and settle for just anyone, you'll be planning the divorce that you've NEVER dreamed of. So how can you tell if you've got the right person? Well, my friend Desiree Mondesir takes a fun approach to finding out your bride's or groom's true colors. She compares wedding planning styles with whether you'll be a good spouse or not. Trust me, she knows weddings! By the way, if you're a Virgin Bride or Abstinent Bride, email me at WeddingNightBliss@yahoo.com because I want to help you have the most blissful wedding night and 1st year of married sex possible! I was a Virgin Bride, too, so I have LOTS to tell you. *wink, wink* “The Fiancé Equals the Spouse”   If you know anything about m

Happy New Year, Blissies! I'm giving my official New Year greeting today because I took a tiny break from posting and writing to enjoy the holidays, enjoy hub's early schedule and to take some time to get Wedding Night Bliss' duck in a row. But now, it's back to business, it's official. Happy New Year! I wanted to take a moment and reflect on last year, like we all tend to do. (I know, so not original!) But I think it's important, so I'll follow the herd this time. :) Last year was a difficult year for me and my little family. After a rough 2nd half of 2011, I was looking forward to a better year, but 2012 wasn’t quite what I expected. It was a year of struggle for us. Constant struggle is exhausting, and I was definitely exhausted last year. But as in any trial, there's always a lesson. A bunch of lessons, in my case! :) But before I talk about the lessons, I want to say that I'm still, and always have been so so grateful! In 2011 we overca

      Today, (December 12 th ) when I was at home with my little girl and the hub was at work, I got a Facebook notification that I was tagged in my hub’s post. I was so pleasantly surprised at when I saw, “12 Reasons Why I Love My Wife on 12-12-12.” I mean, how sweet of him! After 4 years of marriage, and a 1-year-old later he still thinks to do romantic stuff like this! I decided to share because I’m so honored, and grateful that he’d do this. And of course, I want to brag on my man a little! Haha. Here it is! Join my email list   if you’re hub, or fiance is a sweety-pie too! 12 Reasons Why I Love My Wife on 12-12-12 (in no special order) 1.        She loves and forgives me of my flaws. 2.        She's a God fearing woman. 3.        Family is important to her. 4.        She knows how to take care of her husband in ALL area.

This passed weekend I took a FREE online business class at the website CreativeLive.com . Creative Live is a website geared towards photographers that offers free live online workshops taught by world class experts. Let me just say, this site is PHENOMENAL!!! I found this site by accident about a month ago, and was immediately hooked! And in case you were wondering, no I’m not a photographer! Ha! The information, and wisdom that is given through this site crosses all boundaries. They may be talking about photography businesses, but I’m using everything they say and applying it to Wedding Night Bliss. Email me at Driana@WeddingNightBliss.com if you’re a small business owner too! Say hi! J Well, this weekend was my second, LIFE CHANGING class I took with them. That’s TWICE within 1 month!!! My hub can attest to how I’ve, all of a sudden, been kick-started into taking more action with WNB. (He even asked if I was starting a photography business because I’ve been watching Creativ
