Cohabitation skills | Holding a wedding ceremony and its importance

Chapter Two: Healthy Marriage
Part 4: Holding a wedding ceremony and its importance

The wedding ceremony is of great importance in its place. And it can play a significant role in strengthening cohabitation. A lot of research has been done in this area. Most of this research has shown that this issue can have a great impact on the couple’s sense of satisfaction with life as well as on the feeling of satisfaction with strengthening the family.

The purpose of the wedding

The wedding ceremony has three main purposes in total, which include the following:

Link recognition

By holding this ceremony, the marriage of individuals will be recognized and in this ceremony, everyone will be informed that this man and woman want to officially start their life together.

Change in male and female social networks

The second goal is that everyone has a series of social networks of their friends and colleagues and a series of family networks of relatives around them when they are single. After marriage, these things need to be changed. In fact, we introduce the marriage networks of women to men through marriage ceremonies, and vice versa.

This means that a person expresses by marriage that I introduce my relatives and acquaintances to friends and acquaintances of the other party, and this causes our social networks to be connected to each other. After that, my wife and I, as a family of two, must be able to find a common social network within these different social networks so that we can use that network in our next communication.

Help couples

Another goal that is pursued in the wedding ceremony, and this has been very important for a long time, will be to help the couple. Helping couples is the way we give gifts to couples at weddings. This can be a great help for them to start living together.

Unfortunately, this is not the case today. Marriage ceremonies are often held in such a way that the ceremony is held for a few friends. For example, they hold a small ceremony with 20 to 50 acquaintances. While this ceremony should be considered and important in its place. It must be considered great, and as important as it is, it must be held great and glorious.

In fact, by holding a wedding ceremony, we witness to everyone that the issue of marriage is committed to us, and when older people, relatives and acquaintances attend the ceremony, they will also witness our commitment. Maybe with this, we have more commitment to life. Because all the elders of the family witness this commitment.

Competition in holding weddings

There is a point to be made at this stage. If we say that holding a wedding ceremony is of great importance, it is definitely necessary to hold a big one, there is no reason that anyone who holds a bigger ceremony will be happier. In fact, we say that the wedding ceremony is a factor that is very important in its place.

This is neither a reason for the couple to be happy nor a reason for the couple to be miserable. Be aware that holding a wedding ceremony is only one factor. And if it is possible for you to hold this ceremony with importance, and with less expenses, but with more scope, and God willing, you will be able to hold these ceremonies in the best way.

Holding weddings in other cultures

It is interesting to know that in other cultures, weddings are very important and we here in Melbourne, Australia see that their weddings are very glorious. In fact, weddings are held all over the world and are highly valued in all cultures. Be careful to pay attention to it in your position.

I advise dear parents that we may not be able to understand the feelings of young people, but we should know that they like to have a glorious ceremony. For a bride and groom, it is only a day when they can dress, maneuver and be noticed by others.

My suggestion as a consultant to you is to try to understand them and allow them to hold this wedding in the best way and we will only support and help them. Let us support them in every way, both intellectually and financially, so that they can hold a glorious ceremony for themselves. And to be able to remember this ceremony as the best ceremony of their lives in the future.
