I have always believed and still do that marriage is the coming together of two people who care and love eachother.
However i think that today people have changed the meaning of marriage with lavish weddings and fancy dresses taking over the real meaning of what the big day is all about. Which is fine if people wish to use the day to show off however because of shows such as Four weddings i believe some men out there believe that this is what all girls want and are then put off to get married, and therefore the real reason for a wedding the symbolism of love is lost.
Yes one day I do want the fabulous dress, and the church wedding and reception with friends and family, but to be honest thats not the real reason getting marriage is on my mind. I believe getting married shows two people commiting to eachother for life, with their love and the ring symbolises eternity as its never ending.
James and I do have different views on marriage, he doesnt feel he needs to get married to show his love, which is right but i feel that a ring would show the commitment was forever.
And there are of course lots of couples who are with eachother for years, have children who dont get married, some never do.
Soon the goverenment are making it that co habitents get the same rights are a married couple if they live with eachother other, so will the real meaning of marriage get lost if there is no need to get married anymore................
Will whatever anyone else thinks, one day i will get married and it will be because i want to show my love for James and not because I want to show off on my big day x
