What Changes in the First Year of Marriage?

People didnt really realize that we were getting married  in my culture, its called a Nikkah, she added.  And thats basically like, youre legally married. After their Nikkah, Ms.  Atiq and Mr.  Wiseman, a mortgage professional, purchased their home, which they renovated while preparing for a bigger wedding celebration in 2016.
