I'd say it would easier if you searched for a topic on this. There is a good bit to breeding Gouramis, its not too hard but its not like breeding livebearers.

I'll just give a brief discription on what you would need. A breeding tank of around 10 gallons as a minimum. Frozen foods for conditioning the pair, and baby brine shrimp ( at least ) for the fry. I have raised betta fry on just BBS in the first couple of weeks, but Rotifers and Infuroisa are a good idea to have as well.

The male will protect the eggs/wrigglers in the bubble nest for about a week or a bit less. Then you take him out and raise the fry by feeding them lots and doing frequent water changes.

This is a very basic discription on what you will need and what the process is. I didn't want to get into it too much as it would be easier if you read the whole complete process on a Info Thread about breeding Gouramis.
