About the Book

Couples spend countless hours curating the perfect wedding registry.

Whether a need, a want, or a wish, registries are designed to take the guesswork out of gifting. 

If “it’s the thought that counts”,  why not add more value to these gifts by likening them to LOVE and Marriage. 

One need not look further than

a teapot to learn about communication, a brandy snifter to understand respect, and a waffle maker to keep things playful.  

Domestic Bliss is the perfect primer for Happily Ever After!
