The wedding ceremony used to be one of the most meaningful parts to marriage. It was the beginning of a new life, the start to a happily ever after. It used to be a once in a lifetime event that focused solely on the union between a couple in love, ready to take the next step. But now it seems that this ceremony has lost its true meaning. The meaning foe having a wedding ceremony is to make the union between two people in love official, it shouldn't matter how extravagant the ceremony is.
There are many women these days who want a wedding so badly that they will marry the first guy that asks them to or they will rush into a marriage too fast. These women spend large sums of money on their dream weddings, to have the best band, food, and decorations they can find. They are even willing to spend thousands of dollars on a dress that they will only wear once.
Now I have no problem with women wanting to have a lavish and memorable wedding, but when having a big and glamorous wedding to try and top off all other weddings becomes more important than the real meaning behind the ceremony, I begin to get annoyed and frustrated. i think that some brides are forgetting what this ceremony is suppose to represent. If you are going to marry someone, you should do it because you love them and are completely ready to take the next step, not because you want to create your fairytale wedding, the one you've dreamt of since you were a little girl.
