I wonder about the whole wedding thing- I’ve been married (mostly happily) for 30 years- and starting off with a massively expensive show of “love” just seems to celebrate before a couple has accomplished anything. Falling in love is easy. Staying in love, and sticking out the rough spots so you can fall in love all over again- that takes tenacity, and commitment, and forgiveness and trying to be a better person. I could go on. I’m for celebrating anniversaries. (Fwiw, we had a small, cheap wedding at the courthouse.)
