Weddings remind us that our lives have meaning and that love is the strongest bond, the happiest joy, and the loveliest healing we can ever experience.

DAPHNE ROSE KINGMA

---

For talk six times with the same single lady,
And you may get the wedding dresses ready.

Weddings are memories in the making. Photographers, videographers, photo booths, selfie sticks, and more will all be working overtime to capture your big day.

ERIN CELLETTI

---

Weddings are run on a very tight schedule and if the ceremony doesn't start when it should, guests will be eyeballing the open bar and not the bride.

JEN GLANTZ

---

Every bride is beautiful. It's like newborn babies or puppies. They can't help it.

EMME ROLLINS

---

Music played at weddings always reminds me of the music played for soldiers before they go into battle.

The wedding is the chief ceremony of the middle-class mythology, and it functions as the official entré e of the spouses to their middle-class status. This is the real meaning of saving up to get married. The young couple struggles to set up an image of comfortable life which they will be forced to live up to in the years that follow.

Even for couples who don't intend to wear rings on a day-to-day basis, the exchanging of the rings is a ceremony ritual that really resonates. When I talk with brides and grooms post-wedding, they mention that the tradition created an unexpected level of intimacy and became a real marker of the fact that they, and their guests, were in fact at a wedding and not a birthday party.

TAMI SUSSMAN

---

A wedding was a strange ceremony, she thought, with all those formal words, those solemn vows made by one to another; whereas the real question that should be put to the two people involved was a very simple one. Are you happy with each other? was the only question that should be asked; to which they both should reply, preferably in unison, Yes.

Instead of focusing on THE day, focus on the relationship that led to it and the lifetime of love and companionship ahead of you both.

Tis the season for weddings, as happy couples everywhere prepare to tie the knot. If you're planning to be married between now and the end of summer, chances are good that you've pinned down all your closest single friends for places in your bridal and house parties, invitations are out, shopping for gowns is done, fittings are done, making venue, music, food and travel arrangements for the various events ... are all complete, if not in the final phases, and you're right on track with your diet to make sure your dress fits on the big day. Everything is going swimmingly. OR, your invitations are lost, all the people you've invited in hopes they'd just send a gift are actually coming, you still have nothing to wear, you've gained 10 lbs., your bridal party is MIA, your groomsmen want to recreate "The Hangover" for a bachelor party, you and your betrothed aren't even on speaking terms, and your mother and mother-in-law to-be are in some kind of feud over whether or not to have a sit-down or buffet reception.

Every bride and groom in the history of civilization has gained weight after their wedding day. It is only a matter of time until archaeologists unearth a married caveman who's wearing a pair of old tux pants that were so tight he couldn't get the zipper closed.

PETER SCOTT

---

If celebrity envy is the bread and butter of the entertainment zeitgeist, then celebrity weddings are the crack cocaine. Imagine the greatest day of your life: You're surrounded by your friends and family, and pledging your eternal devotion to the love of your life. Now imagine all of that, except objectively way better--that's a celebrity wedding.

AMY ZIMMERMAN

---

Always man needs woman for his friend. He needs her clearer vision, her subtler insight, her softer thought, her winged soul, her pure and tender heart. Always woman needs man to be her friend. She needs the vigor of his purpose, the ardor of his will, his calmer judgment, his braver force of action, his reverence and his devotion.

Despite all the planning and preparation that goes into their weddings, couples often find their wedding days to be whirlwind days that seem to fly by.

DEB HUTMIRE

---

At every turn, weddings are distillations of deeply held ideas about identities, localities, histories, and the present. Better yet for scholars of cultural practices, these ideas are performed at weddings, enacted on a series of community stages for the community, by the community.

TIMOTHY J. COOLEY

---

Weddings are more heavily border-patrolled than Trump's America.

Like many of you, I've been to several big weddings over the years. There was one in the gorgeous gilt ballroom of a five-star hotel in Washington, D.C., another with a 10-piece band that played overlooking a California bluff, and the three-day affair I secretly dubbed "the wedding that wouldn't end." But the wedding I remember most fondly was a much smaller celebration, held in a backyard on Cape Cod. It rained buckets that August afternoon, so we huddled in a small tent during the ceremony, then took off our shoes and danced in the wet grass. It was a close-friends-and-immediate-family type of festivity, a happily chaotic afternoon, relaxing, and so much fun: the best wedding I've ever been to.

JACI CONRY

If it were not for the presents, an elopement would be preferable.

Many a husband lives to regret the extravagant fee he bestowed upon the minister who sentenced him.
