A few weeks ago a couple got married at the pizza cafe where I work. I can't stop thinking about it, actually I'm kind of bothered by it. Which brings me to the question; If two people love each other does it really matter where they get married? I say hell yes it does matter where you get married. I can somewhat understand if you met at the restaurant but that's really the only reason. I don't believe all weddings have to big and extravagant, and I'm not against people getting married at a courthouse but pizza restaurant, no! They were a good looking couple, he drove up in a two door porche sports car and there guest looked nice as well. They looked nothing like the poor couple I imagined. Luckily there was only one person outside the wedding party in the restaurant. He was sitting at the bar turned around in his stool staring at the ceremony all he could say is "You have to be kidding me!" After the ceremony they ordered wings, crab legs and of course pizza for what I guess you would call the reception. I keep trying to put myself in their shoes and come up with some kind of reasonable scenario, but none comes to mind. My question again is if two people love each other does it really matter where they get married? Please visit my blog at www.boysbagsandshoes.com

Honestly, I would never get married in a pizza cafe. That might be because I don't really like pizza, but still. I already know where I want to get married someday but I am aware that I might change my mind. There are a few situations where I can imagine that a pizza place might be an appropriate place to have a wedding. As you mentioned, a couple that doesn't have a lot of money might find that a pizza wedding is more affordable than the traditional venues. Another reason could have something to do with the first date, first kiss, or proposal. Even if this particular location isn't for us, it may be perfect for someone else. As long as the couple is happy I am happy for them. And I bet that their friends and family will never forget the wedding.

Marriage is a very memorable and sacred event for me and it deserves to be held in a memorable and decent place. I am not saying that a pizza place it not a decent place. I would prefer doing it in a much private place like in a garden or in a beach. A church wedding would also be fine.

Love is rhe strongest emotion and the best relationship to have. Love is the commitment. it shouldn't matter where you get married as long as the marriage is for the right reasons.
