My mother married when she was 16 and my dad was 19. They had nothing but love for each other. There was no wedding shower. Her dad didnt approve of the marriage and refused to attend. She couldnt afford a wedding dress. Pastor Bracy Greer performed the simple marriage ceremony. There was no reception, no cake, and no rice thrown. However, that marriage lasted until death do us part. Before you spend $50,000 on a wedding...make sure you are willing to pay the price to stay married. The success of your marriage is not based on how much you spend on the wedding ceremony...but how much you invest in each other. There are no perfect marriages because there are no perfect people. It takes two to get married...but only one to get a divorce. Every marriage has its ups and downs. A good marriage is made up of two good forgivers who love each other more than anyone else...but the Lord. Thats why its called holy matrimony.
