you are not alone honey. I am a part time wedding videographer and I am starting to question on marriage and the whole wedding thingy. You have no idea how many times I am seeing people saying the wedding vows at a church without knowing what they were saying. They couldn't even pronounce the words. " In the presence of God, our family and friends, I offer you my solemn vow to be your faithful partner in sickness and in health, in good times and in bad, and in joy as well as in sorrow. I promise to love you unconditionally, to support you in your goals, to honor and respect you, to laugh with you and cry with you, and to cherish you for as long as we both shall live." I mean how difficult it is to learn the sentences. This is the vows that will marry the couple. It only takes them no more than 10 mins to learn these words. Yet, some people can just mumble through the words during the ceremony. They rather spend days, weeks, and months to shop for dresses, plan the games and practice their singing and dances as if they were having a mini concert. This is totally ridiculous. Sometimes it just makes me so depressed and feel sorry for the marrying couple when I see them at the church. Sadly, I don't think I can avoid it when I marry my future wife.
It feels more like an assignment for our parents and a show for the relatives and friends. Rather than a wedding ceremony for our marriage. |
