Nowadays, marriage is considered as the most important, special,


memorable day for many couples over the world. It can be seen how much
people do concern about this majestic event recently. It is agreed that a
tremendous amount of money, bigger than in previous years has been used
for such a celebration. This will be shown by taking into account how much
human being like to show off their property and are influenced by the media.

To begin with, marriages have become a status symbol, namely to show off
wealth. These days, weddings are conveniently paid by a loan. Thus, young
couples can afford such a luxury. Actually, people concern about others
thoughts more than about the consequences of their action. After analyzing
this, it is clear, why marriage won’t be the same as in the past.

In addition, it is needless to say that people like to follow trends. For instance,
by seeing pictures of famous person’s weddings, couples will likely imitate
them. It is obvious that an enormous amount of money will be spent, if
couples want to have an exact celebration as their idols. Therefore, after a
great party, they will have to survive a hand-to-mouth existence.

To sum up, weddings are merely an opportunity for young couples to show off
their wealth. Then they must face a hand-to mouth existence. As it has been
proven, such marriages are a waste of money. I personally believe that young
couples should be aware of the way they’re handling their money.
