I don't understand what you mean by "two non-married couple", is it two couples or one unmarried couple? When you clarify this then maybe I can help you. May God bless you.

Its for a man and lady fixing to get into a serious relationship. They seems to be really happy for each other and I'm looking for a verse that specifically says that about being happy with each other.

Sorry Wes, I could not find any verses that deal with unmarried couples happiness. The Bible only speaks of marriage and I believe it's because of temptation, God wants holy unions not His children falling into sin (1 Corinthians 7:2,9). Also in biblical times "couples" were betrothed (your spouse was chosen for you by your parents), there wasn't much courting going on. Sorry I could not help you with this one. My wife and I will pray for them and their relationship that God guides it, protects it, and blesses it. God bless you for being a blessing in their lives.

Wes,
You might read Ecclesiastes, the words of the Preacher. He is talking about wisdom and finding God's wisdom throughout the book and he comes to chapter 9 and verse 9. He says;
"Live joyfully with the wife whom you love all the days of your vain life which He has given you under the sun, all your days of vanity; for that is your portion in life, in the labor which you perform under the sun.
The vanity Solomon is speaking of is self. Our ego. And it is our 'self' that keeps us from committing to someone else. We feel we need to keep our options open in case we can't get along with her.
That is why Jesus talks of being born again. This born again is the dying to self and its selfishness and being alive in Christ. When we allow Him to come into our lives and abide in us, we begin to die to our own selfish wants and become the new creation.
This new creation begins to give up the Friday nights with the boys and helps with the dishes and laundry. He picks up his dirty clothes. He doesn't argue for every little point. When both parties begin to do that, they begin the process of becoming one flesh as God intended.
It took me a long time to understand what God knew from the beginning.
You can tell the couple this, that if they will vow to each other to keep the Lord in their lives, if they will seek Him in worship all their lives, they will discover that what He has said is a good thing for them; that being married is the best way to honor each other.
Proverbs 12:4 An excellent wife is the crown of her husband,
Proverbs 18:22 He who finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor from the Lord.
Proverbs 19:14 Houses and riches are an inheritance from fathers but a prudent wife is from the Lord.
And here is one from me:
If you look for failure, you will certainly find it.
