The symbol of innocence
So, the application was submitted to the registry office, and we informed the next of kin about the upcoming event. What has started here ... The process has progressed so that we could not put it back in motion: the most unthinkable proposals and assumptions fell from their relatives. If before we discussed and designed, now with the help of moms, dads, aunts, uncles, etc., went to specific actions!
An unforgettable wedding for a modern woman began with the search for a dress. What to choose? I set the conditions: firstly, the dress will not be white, cream or champagne, and secondly, no veil: neither short, nor medium, nor long - no, I'm also a "symbol of innocence"! I chose the outfit with my husband (despite the claims that this is a bad omen). We came to the first wedding salon on our way, and I chose a dress that I immediately fell in love with: it was a light golden color with beautiful buds on a skirt and a mini train. Then I was persuaded to try on the veil, I was a little "broke", but agreed - it was very beautiful and very well suited to the dress, and then the jewelry for the hairstyle was picked up. So, I was completely ready to go to the registry office.
And so, in a wedding dress with a beautiful hairdo and a veil on my head I'm waiting for my betrothed. Tamada, before she ran out to meet the groom and his "brothers", managed to shout: "Hey, get on a chair!" God, what a chair, why should it become? Noah obeyed. My poor groom was confused - he went into the room and stopped at the entrance instead of coming to me and "redeeming", I had to say directly that he took me, his future wife, off the chair. After drinking champagne, we literally ran out of the house, because we were already late. During the painting, I got agitated and could not concentrate, I tried to listen to what the employee of the registry office was telling us, but my thoughts were constantly disappearing somewhere, it's good that the cherished question "Do you agree?" Had time to hear and respond positively.
When we signed and exchanged the rings, the very moment when the "weeping relatives" came to congratulate us came. Then I realized that all this fuss was not in vain, for this moment it was necessary to put on a dress, similar to a cake, a veil, and also to withstand the test with high-heeled shoes. What was going on was like a dream: skating around the city, dancing, congratulations, admiration, flowers, gifts - and it all ended at four in the morning.
Sign of love and consent
"So what changed after the wedding?" - many of my friends asked me. I can answer! this question is only the following: nothing will change if the couple does not need to legitimize their relationship. We live at a time when people are trying to simplify important things like family, relationships between spouses, everyone values their independence, freedom, and God forbid, if someone encroaches on this freedom. I was brought up according to the "old" principles: I should become a wife, not a girl with whom the guy meets and part-time and lives, and then, if "we do not get along with the characters", maybe we can part.
I can say that it is very pleasant when they call you not "my girl" but my wife, it's nice to see on the ring finger of your right hand the ring - "a sign of love and harmony", it's nice to carry the husband's name and generally it's nice to see the rejoicing relatives who were very expecting this moment and are happy with us!
The New Frontier
The wedding ceremony is very important. It is the personification of that frontier that separates the state of a carefree youth from the responsibility of maturity. A person commits to love, cherish and remain faithful to the one with whom he binds his destiny. By bringing this oath to himself and to those present at the wedding to his relatives and friends, a person changes his inner psychological attitude, takes new obligations in the face of people of importance to whom he will have to answer in case of violation of this vow. After all, marriage is a social institution, and the significance of the wedding ceremony in many ways has a social focus.
Common opinion
It is very important to prepare for the wedding ceremony: sewing or buying a dress for the bride, selecting a place for celebration, compiling a list of guests. This is a process that takes time and rethinking its intention.
Discussing everyday issues, the groom and the bride get used to each other, try to work out a common opinion, a unified solution of the issues, which is a kind of vestibule of family life.
Certainly, the memory of wedding celebrations is preserved for many years, and when children born in this marriage grow up, it is very important for them to know how "it" was with mom and dad.
