I know that there are some people who have fantasized about their wedding day since they were little kids. They always believed that a wedding was part of their future. Some girls have even selected the gowns before they had a potential groom. lol. Then there are people who have found their match/soulmate are the idea of being with that person in matrimony just puts a smile on their face.
On the other side of the fence, there are people who have never imagined themselves marry. They don't want to think of a wedding. The very idea sickens/terrifies/bores them. Whether they've done it before and never want to do it again or just don't like the idea at all, the idea of getting married makes them sick.
What boat are you in? Why?

I already crossed that stage. Iam happily married for a year and half now. but still let me share my experience. i always dreamy of getting married and living happily ever after, like all the stories we were told as kids. I grow up with the same ideas. I chose my soul-mate and knew him for more than 2 years before i decided to marry him. Everything worked fine for me. My parents were happy with my decision and my parents in law are even more happy. it was the perfect time for me to be on cloud nine. But still, apart from all this I was tensed, afraid and was very nervous for last few days before marriage. There is not a single thing that bothers me , except for the fact that I was getting married. Once I was married , I am perfectly fine. It look me few days to get me to normal. Later I found out from my friends thats they are all tensed tooo. May be thinking too much about it makes nervous I guess.
So if you are getting married and is tensed, first try to find the reason and solve the problem . If you dont have one, then dont worry. Its normal. It's part of the marriage.It's wonderful to get married a lead a new life with a perfect soul-mate.
Happy married life ahead.

I have been happily married for almost three years now (three years this Saturday the 28th) and I remember being so excited. I was a little nervous on my wedding day, but that is normal. I made a list of everything that needed to be done and marked things off as I got them done so I was well organized. I knew my location before I was proposed to. I had dated my husband a year and a half before we got married and waited another year and a half before we got married.

I think the idea of getting married makes me happy and excited. It is a big step a major, major decision but thinking of things to complicate it will just ruin all the fun. So, why not concentrate on that special event and be merry and happy...

I`m afraid of that. It means rsponsibility and many others. But I`m not ready for that! Although I am nearly 30, I still have no GF. I`m boring......

when i was a child i dream to have wedding in church with the blessings of my parents and above all our God. My relatives, friends and important persons are there to witness my wedding. But I believe that wedding is a sacred matrimony to share our self to our partner and we are totally committed with them, this also have lot of responsibility and expectations but I want it to lasts. I think others don't want to be marry maybe they have tragic experienced of this or they do not want commitment in their relationships/

When I was a child I dream that If i will be marry I will do it in church wedding with the blessings of my parents and above all our God. Co'z I do believe in sacrament of Holy Matrimony that marriage is happen only once in our life. Wedding is simple word but as we enter this commitment we should make sure that it have also lot of responsibilities and expectations. Maybe some have reasons that they do not want to marry and have an sad experienced regarding this matter we need to respect their views of it.
