Ok...
Phew!
So it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to bed. We had to take a survey of 165 questions. You had to answer agree, disagree, undecided. We are going over the results on May 10th.
The Vicar gave us a page of readings we could pick from and an outline of the ceremony. I feel a lot better because he answered most of our questions about the order and songs for the organist.
It was a great experience and I'm already looking forward to the next class!

Glad to hear it went well! What kind of questions did you have to answer? Family planning, etc? or was it a personality quiz?

We did something like that too!
Going over the results is really insightful!

I actually just found the website of the company that made the survey we had to do lastnight.
Here's the link:
www.prepare-enrich.com/couples.cfm?id=34
There are only a few questions on the site, but there were a 165 in class.

I thought it was interesting that there were many different quizzes.
Since Mark and I are already living together before marriage we got a quiz that had questions pertaining to things we've discovered about eachother since living together.
Also our quiz asked a lot about sex. I thought it was interesting that just because we have the "living together" quiz we got a lot of questions about sex.
There was also a quiz about couples who have children involved before marriage and a quiz about couples not living together yet.

Glad to hear it went well. I did not have to take classes, so I am living vicariously through you.
