Wedding quote

Wedding, what's a wedding? It's a prehistoric ritual. True, yes, but a wedding is also life at its most hopeful--full of promise and happiness and love.

The best wedding I've ever been to was in a bar, and there were not very many flowers, and after we went for pizza.

It sounds like a con and diverting from actual issues that LGBTQ+ face. And in 2017, I just can't see myself in a white dress walking down the aisle, I just don't think it's necessary anymore. And maybe it's the rise of feminism that makes me what to move away from this patriarchal bond. But weddings are overrated and its all just a concept and a show.

I'm a firm believe that every girl should get one Barbie dream wedding in her lifetime, but if that marriage craps out, I'm also a firm believer that all future weddings must be banned to beaches and back yards.

Gosh, I love spring weddings. Everything is fresh and new, and it's the perfect time for a romantic new start for two people in love.

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.

I'm seeing a huge trend to much, much smaller weddings. A smaller guest list means the couple is able to really spend quality time with all of their guests. A huge wedding can feel like a three-ring circus. There is so much excitement that you only have a minute to talk to each guest.

It has been said that a wedding is the bride's day and the groom goes along for the ride. I believe this to be partially true, and I also believe that he might roll his eyes occasionally when you make suggestions or try to involve him in planning the minutiae that you find so important. Don't feel let down. You're interested in the perfect wedding ... but almost better yet, he's only really interested in you!

Thanks to film and media fuelling the big marriage myth, people often enter into it expecting perfection -- or at least a version of the Hollywood dream. Disclaimer: It's all a trick.

Weddings are not over until they are sealed with a kiss.

A wedding is not a wedding without the feast -- the ceremonial extension of celebration to the community, where the meal laid on is not just a feeding but an elaborate and extravagant bacchanal, accompanied by much drinking and the offering of public toasts. Nor is a wedding a wedding without the intensity of sexual consummation in the nuptial bed. Most couples these days are well experienced at sexual intercourse by the time they reach their wedding day. Even so, they do not neglect that special act of coupling on their wedding night, even though they may be tired from dancing and smiling and talking with friends. Here ceremony finally reaches the flesh.

Weddings are the biggest relationship killers out there. If you can survive the wedding, they say, the rest is a piece of cake.

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.

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

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.

Many a wedding takes place when a man can't afford to go steady with a girl any longer.

20,000 Quips & Quotes


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.

Weddings are also great chances to get to know your neighbors and friends of friends, providing valuable mortar that strengthens the bonds between society's building blocks and aids the development of deeper and stronger social connections.
