] Apart from the Crofts and the Gardiners, we see few really well matched and happy marriages in the books.
I dunno. I can think of several more happy marriages, even if you discount all the ones of heroine & hero:
The Westons (Emma) - they're only married a year, but the future looks bright
Mr & Mrs Allen (NA) seem settled, even if she is a bit thick (at least Mr Allen doesn't ridicule her, like Mr Palmer (S&S) and Mr Bennet (P&P)
Mr & Mrs Dashwood (S&S) before his death.
