In all the tradition, it was my mom who insisted on me going through a typical christian wedding. If given a choice maybe I will! Or maybe I will not at all go through this hassle! Looking at the trend nowadays! Non-believers are all going for the Christian "walk-down-the-aisle" wedding! It almost make us look hassle-full to actually go through the whole process of counselling and getting an actual pastor to do our wedding!
The WORLD out there doesnt need this and they did just well! Walk down the aisle, exchange some vows that is close to "till death do us part" kind and exchange rings, drink some wine and etc! Imagine the length in which they go to mimic one of a christian style! I am saying this because I am not taking one shit from the church! Sorry to say I got so tired of listening to the bias opinions and the judgement of church people! I had gone through a whole long faithful church attendance! And just like the normal corporate world when you refuse to do what they expected of you, the somehow push you aside!
We are going through premarital counseling course with pastor and so far we have done 5 sessions with him until yesterday, he hinted us about doing this as a favor to my mom and my uncle who is in the church! I did not take so much thinking when it is said but then when hubby discuss the matter over with me, I realize one thing, this must be yet another thing that the church is giving some kind of shit to tie us down! We are ok to minimize our "wild" ideas and stick to tradition of the church but then if the church dictatorial board is going to set us a rule, we might as well forget about it! I know its harsh but then I am tired! I am doing this to respect my mom and to please many many many spiritual people around my circle! So here we go! In all the tradition I do love Jesus and I do love God and am thankful that I found my blessing and am blessed in countless ways because Jesus is the source of my blessing! He sees me and still sees me through every crook and sharp turns of my life BUT if the church is giving me yet another one of those "quote-the-bible-oh-rules-and-regulation" judgement I am NOT taking it!
