Answer 3

first step is your romance with your girlfriend in which you decided, with all of your heart, to give to her a simple question that is:

"will you, (the name of the girlfriend),please be my bride?" 9 out 10girls will accept a marriage proposition because they know that their boyfriend must be a good looking guy and not to mention an excellent provider for all of her needs.

then you have from 6 months to 1 year to make your wedding arrangements so that it will be to your liking and that your guests
will be welcomed to your wedding with a lot of love.

the pictures and video are a must for this special occassion in which i do not recommend that you contract any typical person but however i do suggest that you check for referrals with your friends to see whom they recommend and that you and your girlfriend make the ultimate decisions.

dont forget about the wedding rings and licence nor to verify about wedding ceremony and the reception. those four are very important and with those things that are in order, all you will need is some good wishes on a marriage.

that is my definition on what it takes to get the marriage rolling.

Answer 5

The religious and civil union of a MAN AND A WOMAN. The bible states that this union is an emulation of Christ's relationship with the believers, his church. Civilly, in most states, it is a legal union of a man and woman that gurantees the pair certain monetary entittlements and legal protections.
That some states now recognize homosexual unions as legal marriages is contrary to the bible, the moral sense of most people, and IMO a sign of the end times.

"Matrimony" redirects here. For the Catholic sacrament, see Catholic marriage.
A marriage is a socially recognized union between or among partners forming a family, legitimizing sexual relations between the partners and providing the context for legitimate production of offspring. Marriages are generally publicly declared in the context of a wedding ceremony.

Marriage as an institution traces back into antiquity and is found in nearly every culture. Usually it is understood to join a man and woman (who in their marital roles are termed the "husband" and "wife" respectively; generically they may be referred to as "spouses") in a monogamous marriage. Polygamous marriage, in which one person takes more than one spouse, is ancient, but is now common only in Africa and Asia; polygyny (a man with multiple wives) is the typical form of polygamy, while polyandry (in which a woman takes several husbands) is rare. Recently the word marriage has been used to describe unions between homosexual partners (same-sex marriage), and as a legal contract has been recognized by a few governments and religious institutions.

Marriages may be mediated by religious or political institutions and are generally bound by conventions which establish rights and privileges, and which establish limits of consanguinity and other restrictions. It is often characterized as a contractural state and engaged as such. Marriages may be formally ended through divorce, or may be annulled if improperly formed.

Purposes of marriage include security (derived from the solemn commitment to longevity in the relationship), companionship, procreation, child education and development, economic collaboration, and social stability. It affects assignment of rights to property and inheritance, aids in providing identity (particularly to children), and is often the means by which surnames or family names are carried forward
