/^t/Some critics object to marriage saying that when people love each other they do not need any legal confirmation of their love. Their affection is fragile and so special that they do not have to adhere to any standards getting married because it may spoil their feeling. But it is true to say that marriage has remained the most traditional institution in the world which has never lost its value completely. People married even during wars or revolutions and maybe at that time they felt that marriage would brought them some substitute of peace and some degree of security. At present people live their lives extremely quickly and in such a hurry the time which is devoted to other people is the most precious, especially, in case of marriage and family, which comes to one's mind right after it, where two people decide to be together "till the end of their days". Wedding and its celebration is like announcing to the whole world that we are together, we love each other and we do everything to protect our love against the danger from the outside. People who decide to marry are usually more responsible and they can trust each other more because they know that in case of problems they do not just split apart but they will be more willing to deal with troubles since they want their relationship to be solid.
