Marriage no longer survives on love alone. It is a complicated affair and couples have many legal, social and financial consequences to consider. Marriage is akin to a legal agreement between two parties with certain legal rules and terms that must be followed. The book hopes to provide the reader an insight into the impact the law will have on him or her; to allay fears or encourage an understanding of what marriage entails and to flag out possible difficulties the reader may face during the course of his or her relationship.
