share this great day that brings joy to the couple where at the same time it recalls those whom are
married their own Wows which they made when they've made the decision to do so.
It is for most families a religious event that God Blesses The Union to become One.
It is the other rib that the God took from Adam when He created a women which we all know as Eve.
I just do not understand our younger generation how they do not focus in putting God in first place when
this event occurs. Especially that when you get married most often is to have a family with children that are
grown in a blessed holy home. The couple would grow as the children with good moral and values to help them become more fulfilled and accomplished even when the hard times arises.
I noticed these lots of couples want traditional weddings, I mean the reception at the expense of the guests because in most Italian weddings as a witness, they do not want gifts, just cash, this is bizarre for me. They invite you, and then if something should go wrong, because of job loss, or financial loss, instead of saying come over do not worry your presence is which I value the most, it has become if you can"t afford it do not come. I would personally would go out of my way to find what I can do to attend this reception. An Italian reception will have a wedding with more food that goes wasted that is not even eaten, that they can cut down, and make the reception to accommodate every one within their means. Especially, these days when we live in society with a recession where the economy is bad or people starving.
I know of French way of having a wedding and reception as witness because my husband is French. They invite with the simplest and down to earth wedding ceremony. A reception with just down to earth menu, that at the same time we can attend, they value anything you give. I am happy, if it were for me just having a wedding reception meal example: with a soup, salad, BBQ chicken reception and the desert the wedding cake with ice-cream. This is simple and just perfect. My grandparents in the past, had reception this way and we were all happy, I wonder why the Italian reception tradition has changed.
Is to show off their friends? Is is to because it is once they get married have it all the way ?
Is because of all the hard work of bringing their kids up that they can splurge to
give them the biggest wedding of a Prince and Princess ?It used to be the parents of the Bride would pay the reception and home furnishing would be the Grooms parents. Now, these traditions has changed for both nationality as a witness, because most often parents of the bride or groom are split often divorced. This makes it harder to accommodate their siblings. Really it is up to the couple whom is getting married to work and manage their own wedding and reception, unless their parents will pitch in, that is up to the individual's family's rights.
We are united in One God, the Word Of God from the bible states: Love your Neighbor as Yourself or Love Your Neighbor As I have Loved You, means the first love is shared with your partner which is your husband and those of your children which makes the union Blessed and A Stronger One. A marriage with no God does not work because it can be destructive that can lead to corruption to destroy the relationship that is intended to love till the end, as we say in the WoWs, till death do us part. Leads most often to divorce that we see these days, where our children are faced with, that have to deal two fathers and two mothers when marriage goes wrong, especially while our kids our still young. It affects their growth and loosing that touch of a real family that sweats together through all the trials of life. You take them as God gives them to you, all you have to do is love and endure with preservation, because we do not know what He holds for us in this walk of life. It is like a rose that has thorns and at the end of it their is the beautiful grown rose that has flourished with accomplishment and fulfilled with love.
Marriage is based on trust and less jealousy. Too much jealousy is no good, giving space to one another, putting the full trust in your partner, is the best you can give in a relationship to last forever. Also,
the dialogue with each other is the best we can offer, which the best tip is to write a love note to each other every day is a great idea. As I would suggest, a positive attitude with each other is a great way to let the relationship grow and live happier.
This is my point of view of weddings that I witnessed these days from my dearest closest relatives.
