Ceremonies Themselves Are Unnecessary
“Well that would have to be the wedding ceremony itself. My parents raised me to believe that a simple, commonlaw marriage was good enough. By which I mean my mom just moved in with my dad and started using his last name and they addressed one another with spouse titles like husband and wife when asked.
But they had no marriage license, no paperwork, no certificates, there was no ceremony. My parents were fine with this for years and I grew up disliking the idea of a ceremony and certificates and stuff. I’m also an introvert so I can’t imagine how embarrassing it would be to have all the people I love watching me in a big wedding dress saying vows.
Plus I’m not a Christian, not really anything, my beliefs are my own pieced together from my experience with various faiths around the world.” Story credit: Quora / Glenn Griffon
