Whether you’re a new couple or been married for years, every couple can have a bucket list. Bucket lists are great ways to bounce ideas off one another, set goals, and chart a potential path through life. This goes for whether you are with your boyfriend or girlfriend, husband or wife!

We have a few bucket list items that we want to accomplish – you’ll find many on this very list. That said, remember that it’s okay if you don’t meet all of them.
