Popular quotes about Wedding! Wisdom and inspiration are here!
What I object to is the hyper-fetishized wedding day, the prioritizing of wedding over marriage.

David SedarisIn my view there are basically two types of weddings. There is the wedding that is based on law, and there is the wedding that is based on Christ and based on grace.

The icing covers up the mess, and that's how I feel about most of the Wonders. They use them to get people to visit a place that you probably wouldn't think about visiting.
Karl PilkingtonFew occasions are as joyous to small children as funerals, almost better than the big wedding blowouts that take place at night when it's hard to stay awake.

It is Christ Himself Who says, 'Joy shall be in heaven over one sinner who repents' (Lk. 15:7). For joy, according to the Apostle, is the fruit of the Holy Spirit (Gal. 5:22), Who through conversion brings back to Christ those living in repentance, and reunites them with Him. And this joy embraces both those in heaven and godly men on earth. That is why there is joy in heaven over one repentant sinner.

I am the vampire of my own heart, one of the great outcasts condemned to eternal laughter who can no longer smile. Am I dead? I must be dead.

And yet no other relationship can bring with it as many adjustments, difficulties and even hurts. There's no way you can avoid these difficulties; each couple's journey is unique. But there is much you can do to prepare for that journey. An engagement is not just a time of preparation for a wedding, but also preparation for a marriage.

That's been the fun of the beginning part of this season is showing her what the challenges are of being married.
