Basically the parties are saying to each other this is what I expect..eg us going out and having a candle-lit dinner once a week...help with the ironing, washing up...its not absolute but if the couple are having problems it allows them to look again at whats going wrong

I agree with this and exactly what I wanted it in. 20 years down the line with kid and work and the hustle and bustle of life, you might lose sight of your original intentions and I think the statements would do a great job in reminding yourself. And if it turns out you don't need it in the long run, that's cool, but for the 20 minutes it takes to put it together, it's comforting knowing you have it just in case.
