By now, you know each other so well you feel you’re
part of each other (and you are). You know exactly
what each other is thinking before it’s said.

With an event as important as this, it never hurts to
discuss your choices and plan ahead. Once you make
prearrangements, there’s never any question about
what you would have wanted... it’s all understood.
