Default Newly Married & Co-sleeping

My daughter is almost 3 and she has always slept with me. I recently married, and my husband is really opposed to having her in our bed. I understand his issues with it, but am really struggling with transitioning her to her own bed. She has a lot of anxiety about being in her own bed, and i don't like letting her cry. I have been encouraging her, and trying to set her up with a reward system. I offer her special treats that she can only have if she sleeps in her own bed, but although she is interested in the rewards, she still chooses to stay in my bed. It is really causing a lot of strain on my relationship with my husband. A friend recommended Ferber, but was wondering if anyone can offer any other suggestions that don't require her to cry it out. Please help!
