Wedding Scams...

These days, I'm surrounded by two kinds of news... the wedding bells ringing kind and the "We are getting a Divorce" kind.

Many and I mean MANY wedding parties that I attended or got invites for did not feel right. Din have that they are so in love and they know what they are heading for kind of feeling. Not only do they FALL deaf to advice to ask them to reconsider their options, go for professional marriage preparation courses. They are more engrossed with what gown should I wear, who should be taking our photos, dinner venue, church booking, house renovations etc. EVERYthing except for the one MOST important factor. Are they REALLY SURE about the other party?

Yes, we are an open-minded society now, divorce is acceptable. But isn't that a GREAT excuse for exit when things are not rosy? Which joker told you that everything would be fine once you put on that wedding gown, walk down that isle and say your I dos? If you have heard anyone say anything like that.... that person is truly Lying! (and most definitely NOT a true friend)

NO one marriage I know is without its storms. NOT ONE. Yes, NONE.

So please be PREPARED for what is to come and not face some challenges and say "forget it, I want way out, I'll be happier that way etc etc." Did you think about all those guest whom you invited to witness your vows together? Do you realised that you OWE it to them too? Afterall they did spend alot of time, money and effort to attend your wedding, witness your solemnization etc. You think you can just walk away so simply?

Honestly, I feel very cheated each time a couple turn around and say hurtful words to each other and these words turn into weapons of mass destruction, leading to the big D. If they can profess their love infront of so many people, why cant they work out their differences between the two of them?

I think we should establish a refund system for those couples who signs on their divorce papers to refund all those guest's gifts and money. Since they are no longer a couple, why should they still keep the well-wishes? Its more fair this way, since they got everyone involved in their wedding, they should answer to all these same people for their divorce as well!!!!
