It’s important to make sure you and your future spouse agree on the life you’ll build together before you walk down the aisle.

Ask these crucial questions before you tie the knot, according to experts.

1.) Is there anything you (or I) are unwilling to give up once we’re married? It might be your yearly trip to Vegas or your daily caffeine fix. Perhaps you’re spending time with your family over the holidays.

2.) Would you be able to handle me doing things without you?

3.) How did your family deal with conflict? Did your family use silent treatment, calmly discuss disagreements, or slam doors? A successful marriage is not predicted by how much conflict you have but by how you handle it yourselves is very important.

4.)What are your spending habits? Learn to talk openly about money and how you spend and save it.

5.) If we have children are you willing to change diapers at 3 a.m. and miss an important meeting if our kid is sick? Research shows in the happiest marriages, partners share responsibilities of life equally.
