I can´t make a poll, BUT I can ask you this...

I don't know where but I know for sure I would never get married in a church, I would go for a civil wedding
 
i did the church, to me marriage is holy. But I could also see it being on a beach or in the forest surrounded by loved ones...

and for the fun of it: VEGAS in little white wedding chappel

church weddings are sooo beautiful! ;)


most of them are fake :roll:

I don't unerstand why people get married in a church with a religious ceremony when religion has 0% of relevance in their life
 
because one doesnt need to believe in a god, in order to marry in a church - I got married for the beauty of it in the church and because it´s a more spiritual place that signing a piece of paper in some office.
Promising eachother eternal love should be spiritual. and the church is a spiritual place, im a christian but i dont spend time praising the lord if that´ds what you mean....lol* - I chose my church because it has significanse for my life, and the place ment something to me.

ANd is up to each individual to decide where to find that spirituality. If the love is there, it shouldnt matter where you get married. I just think its too easy to go to city hall, it takes 3 minutes and you´re done.
 
Well, church it's god house. If you don't belive in god why using a church for such a important moment?

You don't need to get married at city hall for a civil ceremony. My best friend had a lovely civil ceremony in the middle of the woods. NOw, that's real

the idea of getting married in a church is so you say your vows in front of 'the lord', not because you want to look pretty in a big white dress! :lol:
 
If I was religious I would find it incredibly offensive that people used my place of worship as a prop for their wedding when they don't give a toss about the faith
 
I partially agree! and understand your viewpoints. a garden wedding i s gorgeous.
But you cant judge people on what they do, nor can I.,
You dont have the right to say that people cantm arry in a church just because they´re not devoted in their religion.

Im not a devoted protestant, but I´ve attended mass, I´ve been to that church many times when Ive felt I needed a quiet moment to sort out my life. So no, god was not involved directly but maybe he was....I m not a believer of god as a persona, but as a psiritual object.

If you knew more about the people you judge, and say their weddings are fake 8O maybe you´d understand. i never said my friends wedding at city hall was fake, but i just dont think its spiritual. and i found spirituality in the church i went to and got married, i liked the place and it matched our wished perfectly. So saying its fake is really not the nicest thing to say, about people commiting to something important

maybe one day when you have the privilege of finding the love of your life and giving him your "yes" you´ll see...
 
stuie i said my vovs in a GORGEOUS creation of a knock out dres,s had no problems with looking absolutely fantastic - and i didnt say my vowes before god (only). I said them before my loved ones and first and mostly of all my husband.

...

Err ....people of a particular religion have every right to say who can and can't marry in their church, and many do.

You're the one who has no right to tell people what they can or can't do with THEIR church :roll:
 
my church.
my whole family is christianed there.
my parents married there
if there isnt a stronger reason to get married there, that for that - for the love of your family and because you feel connected with that place. then what is?

are any of you people storng believers of any religion?
since you tell people what they can or cannot do?

each to their own in their choises in life!

Try to get married in a mosque without being musulman... Anyway you would look very pretty in your gorgeous white dress in the main door 8O :lol: :lol: :lol:
 
i´d never get married in a mosque for several reasons, they would have me wear a vail from top to toe and i wouldnt be able to see a damn thing, let alone show off any skin ;)

no seriously....i dont belong to the muslim church, i belong to the christian church. and I just dont praktice religion IN the church that much, but can still be a spiritually connected person - and relate to "our christian god" the most if I am forced to relate to any god/goddess....

So the church was a fantastic place for us to get married.
 
IG - once again, you've asked for peoples opinions and got the ass when you've been given them!

you said you got married in a church for the beauty of it, well most practising christians would frown on that. I am athiest and I can't understand for the life of me why a non-religious person would want to celebrate their relationship in a religious venue/house of 'the lord'

As for saying your vows in a gorgeous creation of a dress in front of your family and your hubby - you could of done that anywhere. If having your wedding in front of God/whatever wasn't important to you then I can't imagine why you'd want to get married there.

Apart from the status/fuss/spectacle of a big white wedding.

That's fine, but if you start saying that church weddings are beautifull and getting married in the city hall is a shit, then people will think you are only interested in look nice in the pictures
