Are you and your partner planning to get married and why?

First of all, CONGRATULATIONS! and thanks for sharing your opinion, however, if I had offended you in someway or the other by putting this word "holy matrimony" then I apologise.I didn't use this word from Christian point of view but any marriage inspite of any religion. Well, I will not exactly agree with you nor I am asking any of you to agree with me.Everyone has a right to choose.But what I feel is that, marriage is a strong building block for strong families and communities.It is an opportunity for friends, family and neighbours to come together to recognize a couple's lifelong commitment to one another.This occasion strengthens the bond between couples.This is mark as the spiritual union of couples based on the faith's tenets.

I apologize, but again, I disagree. Marriage isn't necessary for a strong family, nor do all who get married intend on building a family. Community is subjective as well because we don't really have one where I live and was raised. As I said, I was already committed/bonded to my partner and I don't being getting married changed or validated that. I also very much regret sharing my wedding day with my family and neighbors, but that's just me.
