Does it really matter where you get married or how large your wedding is (if you have a traditional one). Or is it who you marry and the reasons why you marry them that is important??? Just a though!

I had a big white church wedding for my first disastrous wedding, ending in divorce 6 years later. The second wedding was very small, intimate, and meaningful. It's who you marry. If you want a pageant, put on a pageant! If you want an opera, put on a opera. How your nuptials are staged has NO BEARING ON THE STRENGTH OF YOUR BOND.

My mother told me this when I wanted to have a quick small wedding. She said that the importance you give to your union will be shown in how nice your wedding is. Basically, a wedding is also for the people who know you, to establish yourself as a legitimate couple in the society.
I know it sounds stupid and old fashioned and I didn't believe my mom, but I gave in and we had a very nice wedding with about 50 best buds and family.
Afterwards, we found that the people who did not agree to us getting married shut their mouths after seeing how "serious" we were about the committment.
People value marriages the same way they value people, by appearances. If they think the wedding was second rate, they will think the marriage is shaky and can be destroyed. There are always people who will try to split up a couple, believe it or not. Be it envious in-laws, ex boyfriends or guys who didn't pay any attention to you until suddenly you are attached. If all those people see you got a quickie marriage and didn't invite family, they will try to split you up because they think they can.
Believe me, I saw it happen with couples I know.

It does not matter where just the who and reasons you get married. I would rather get married at the JP to the man I really loved and who loved me that a huge wedding where either party was not really in love.

Of course it doesn't matter where you get married. My parents got married in a court house and they just celebrated their 30th wedding anniversary
