Quotes About Planning A Wedding




Many people tried over the years to talk about the concept of marriage. For some, marriage is an important event which should be cherished and appreciated by everyone at it’s true value. For others, usually experienced persons, very often men, marriage is seen as an entrapment; a doomed life next to a nagging wife who keeps him from living a peaceful life. Of course it must be said that nowadays many women marry men, usually older men, just for money. It is a sad reality that cannot be denied. So we may say that men have their share of justice, but not entirely. It would be useless to start a discussion about the whole equality between men and women because we wouldn’t get to any compromise.




Throughout this article I am going to present some quotes about planning a wedding and weddings in general, in order to analyze a little bit the general view of the population upon this subject.

David and Vera Mace said thatA wedding is not a marriage. A wedding is only the beginning of an undertaking that may or may not, someday, develop into a marriage. What the couple have on their wedding day is not the key to a beautiful garden, but just a vacant lot and a few gardening tools.” So as you can see, the wedding is just the first step into marriage, an important step but also minor comparing it to the greatness of marriage.

The brilliant Oscar Wild had too, some things to say about marriage. “The proper basis for a marriage is mutual misunderstanding” or “How marriage ruins a man! It is demoralizing as cigarettes, and far more expensive!”. Charming and optimistic as always! But he could always get away with it because of his funny and witty mind. Another interesting quote is the one of Benjamin Disraeli: “No man is regular in his attendance at the House of Commons until he is married.” An American proverb says that “The most dangerous food is wedding cake” and Henny Youngman agrees that “The secret of marriage remains a secret.”

Other quotes about wedding planning are from Kay Coles James- “What I Wish I’d Known Before I Got Married”:”Marriage is not to be entered into unadvisably or lightly, but reverently, deliberately, and in accordance with the purposes for which it was instituted by God.When you consider marriage in these terms, you may wonder how two relatively immature individuals can make such an awesome commitment. Too often, we tend to focus everything on the wedding ceremony and little or nothing on marriage. We see the beauty of the ceremony but the fact that we are embarking on one of the most difficult  journeys of our lives, one that does not begin on the wedding day.”

Also Mahatma Gandhi and the Hindu proverbs teach us:”never to strike your wife- even with a flower” and “first the concepts of non-violence are learnt in marriage.”

With the hope that I have made your day brighter and funnier,I wish you all to enjoy life, regardless of its evolution.
